Channel 5 to show FL highlights next season; Saturday nights at 9pm

[lawros left foot]

Sky mentioned the Shoreham tribute and showed a brief series of images before they showed Hemed's goal on their goal round up on Sky Sports News etc even though its a "goals only" hour.This was probably an editorial mistake by C5.

As for giving the Albion only 30 seconds. that was fair enough. The match itself was uneventful and only 2 weeks ago Albion v Ipswich was given 8mins+

We all know that if two MASSIVE clubs (you know the ones) had been first and second in the division, and had played each other, with the air crash tribute as a back story, , they'd have had 10 plus minutes.
Unfortunately, we aren't that big a draw outside of Sussex.

C5 really are taking the p#ss. Tossers

It may seem so but as the input originates from Sky, who do not appear particulary to like us, because perhaps we are too remote or possibly the Amex is a difficult stadium to set up from.

Neither, nor indeed any other, reason/excuse is valid but there we are, so I agree !

Miles wide of the mark. Sky LOVE the Amex. It was designed for them - camera positions and cable access holes everywhere they need them. Dedicated studio overlooking the pitch,etc.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Love the way they said Hull hadn't beaten us for 20 games, didn't they beat us in the FA Cup and league a few years back?

Pretty sure they said they hadn't won away at Brighton for 20 games. Still don't know if that's true, but their league win was at their place

I am glad we still get a free air to view Football league show. here come the however;

No coverage or mention of the pre match tribute - its like their is no producer and they take a standard feed of just the football.

Camera footage is poor quality and all from one high up shot from most games

The studio has dark lighting and a live audience that look bored with poor interaction with presenters.

Presenters are probably the best thing, so why the need to make them walk around and try to interact with the audience.

Really poor, I will keep popping in to watch the limited highlight (seagulls player is far better) and in hope they turn it around.

Very poor the lack of coverage of the tributes yesterday.

 

[BensGrandad]

It is better now but please get rid of the supporters who contribute nothing to the program and sadly no mention of yesterdays tribute.

 

[Elvis]

We didn't even get a commentator. Michael Gray did a bit of impro work from the studio.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

No mention of the tribute whatsoever, that would never have happened on the Football League Show.

Remote from where?

 

[Bombadier Botty]

Talk about blink and you miss it! The sooner we get promoted and get a 20 minute top billing on MOTD the better. Wankers.

 

[Fungus]

I'm happy to keep going under the radar

I keep hearing this. So, other clubs won't notice we're top, just because we're not on the TV??

Well had you noticed?

 

[Icy Gull]

COG did everything right in that Forest win, looked like he has slotted straight in to their system. Good luck to him

 

[Mackenzie]

C5 can do one after that last night. Useless.

 

[OSRGull]

What the hell was that? I'm watching it now and we barely even got shown.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

I wonder at what point will C5 stop treating BHAFC as a Championship afterthought to be got out of the way as quickly as possible? They're just making themselves look stupid.

 

[pal4life]

What a crock of shite the C5 coverage of us is. I always thought that the BBC's coverage of us was bad , but being top of the league I expected more. Gutted to have to miss the match as dropping my daughter to University so I expected to be able to enjoy some highlights

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

I think another issue they have, is they try to cover too much and should extend the programme to 90 minute - 2 hours to get in all the coverage and get longer highlights in.

In an ideal world the show would be a Red Button job on the BBC where you could select which division you want to watch.

The problem with clubs like ours is that we're an 'inconvenience' (see also Crystal Palace FC) to the media moguls if we enjoy any modicum of success because we're not, in Championship terms, a Leeds, Forest, Derby or a QPR.
