Football League Comedy Show (Lesta Free 2014/15 Edition)

A solid 45 seconds of highlights and a description of Forestieri as one of our 'new old players' in the studio.

Consistency.

 

I am puzzled why Forest got the 5 Live commentary game also, usual protocol would be to highlight the teams coming up. Are Forest the New Leicester?

 

Psycho is back, they've got Kuwait behind them, this is Forest's year! Or so the BBC have decided. In reality Pearce will be gone by Christmas because the owner keeps sticking his nose in and their fairly average squad will revert back to its default mode of missing out on the playoffs. Probably with Billy Davies back in charge.

 

Thing that pisses me off, is they spend so much time doing **** needless stuff like Clem. Just **** off clem! and then they pretend to know what they're talking about, which no one cares about. Then they show all the managers, but not for long enough to hear anything interesting. JUST SHOW THE FCKING GOALS!

 

They are, and always will be, ker hunts

 

Hang on, wolves are back, they'll be the new Leicester.

 

I get more annoyed by the over the top coverage of L~t~n on 3 cr radio

FLS for all its faults is al least some effort to show football on terrestrial tv, better than what ITV had to offer.

Would much a regional programme..... don't know why Late Kick Off starts when the season is effectively over

 

I think the show was very kind to us. They showed all our goals, the shot which hit the crossbar and Gomes' great save.

I timed it, we got 17 seconds coverage which is 10 seconds more than last season. That's 70% better coverage than last season, and people are still not happy!!

On a separate issue......from all the coverage I've seen in the build up to the Championship on TV and the radio, I've not heard one pundit mention Watford as a potential force this season. No doubt if we're doing well in the next few weeks that will all change and they'll pretend we were rated all along, sighting we have the best strikers in the league blah, blah, but I honestly think Watford have not been taken seriously this year and this can only be to our advantage as we take teams unaware......just like Burnley last season.

 

Watching the Watford highlights on the FLS is much like sex. Loads of effort required for just a few seconds of orgasmic bliss.

 

Agreed with HB, the focus is clearly on the teams that came down along with those that missed out last year. 13th finish last season will clearly be a blessing for the early part of the season at least. All the pressure is on the likes of the Cockney and Ole Gunnar who need to hit the ground running.

Sounds obvious but we need a good start. 7 wins out of the first 10 is what I'm looking for

Re our opposition, Forest and Derby are the two that worry me the most (particularly Derby)

 

Agreed, but the bookies think otherwise. Before yesterday we were 6th favourites, will be even less after yesterdays win.

 

Yes....bookies have to reflect that as punters have put money on Watford. I think we were joint 6th with Middlesbrough before yesterday's match at 14-1, which is why I'm slightly surprised at how the pundits do not even give us a passing mention.

 

The football league show needs to have full coverage of every division.

The main show has the usual presenters showing the most exciting games from the whole football league.

Then red button coverage for each division specifically showing extended highlights, a regular presenter and a guest for each division. Ratings would be far higher.

 

Citing, you illiterate femboy.

 

You didn't answer my previous question. Did you enjoy yesterday's game in your banana suit? Or have you moved on to dressing like a plumb now?

 

Good call. And you have to stay up late waiting for it, only for Leroy Rosenior to give you a modest review. Wait, what?

 

Things that **** me off -

1. Insistence on showing highlights of Sky games. It might be easy & cheap but they have already been seen by more than any other game. Stop it.
2. 'Analysis' - it's **** and waste of time, don't bother.
3. Being on late when no MOTD. Bet audience figures would be a lot better if it was on at a sensible time of night when possible. 10,000th re-run of Michael McIntyre preceded it last night - unnecessary.
4. Wasting time with clips of autograph signing and coach exiting. Pointless ****.
5. 10 second clips in which winning manager has enough to say: "I'm happy with the win." - Well done, insightful.

My blueprint -

Scrap any talking, Clemmit, Claridge, Rosenior, the managers and if possible, Manish. No feature game, just more highlights of every game in all three division. The Football League geeks among us want to see Hartlepool v Accrington, suck it up.

 

Can't be ar5ed to watch it anymore.

 

Good call tom1

 

To be fair Savage said he can see us doing very well and Beagrie put us in his top 6

 

Forest are no threat. Pearce is a huge negative.

 

It's a good show though they show all goals what is not to like?

 

The Analysis is pointless as they only see the same hightlights that we do.

however, it's better than nothing.

 

That's 'plum', you moron.

 

Cant wait until next weeks main game......Rotherham v Wolves.

I must stay up to watch that!!!

 

6. Use the Life of Riley by the Lightning Seeds as the backdrop to all the goals.

 

You assume that he doesn't mean Liz is dressed like a weighted line for measuring whether something is straight.

 

There was a classic exchange when they were talking about Luton.

Manish: "Do you think Luton can go straight up as the bookies seem to think"
Leroy: "Well, we've seen before when plenty of teams have come up from the Conference and excelled. Like Fleetwood. And...."

[Leroy thinks for a bit. And a bit more. Manish shuffles in his seat. Leroy puffs out cheeks]

"And.........other teams who have come up and done really well"

[Manish relaxes]

 

vertical you dolt

 

It's always nice when Liz's mum gets involved. Do you know your son is constantly using words like "femboy" and "******"? I'm not what they teach at schools these days, but I blame the parents.

You shouldn't always stick up for him though.....I know it's a mother's duty....but you've really got to let him stand on his own two feet and let him fight his own battles. He'll be better for it in the long run......and please take him to the dentist. Far too many sweets.

 

I didn't mean horizontal you pillock!

 

You can keep stuff straight with a piece of wood ... you plank

 

Apart from Tom Daley, he jumps off of a piece of wood for a living.
