Emlyn Hughes and Tuffers would have been good! Prefer Sue Barker to David Coleman.

Beaumont would be teased mercilessly for his inability to recognise the correct sex of a mystery guest;

I did enjoy McCoist and Parrott but that might just be because that was the age when I watched it religiously.
I found Matt Dawson as entertaining as a cabbage when I last watched it so I've no idea about the current state...

Always liked it TBH, tonights was particularly funny. Saw it live at the Brighton Centre a couple of years ago, good night out.

I always find that I take the side of the captain I prefer regardless of who the guests are. I am a Beaumont, McCoist and Tufnell supporter.
Best era was Hughes and Beaumont.

Haven't watched it for ages since Sue Barker arrived and it moved into silliness away from the golden era of David Coleman.
Any show that can get Princess Anne on next to Emlyn Hughes must be good.

The McCoist/Parrot era was good.
For me though, They Think It's All Over was the best sports quiz show.

I loved Beaumont and Botham.
Never watch it now which is a shame but I just don't like watching Sue Barker on anything and Matt Dawson is just a massive CJTC.

Has to be one of the dullest programmes on TV
Can barely bring myself to watch it. The moment it comes on the TV is either switched off or over or I'll leave the room and do the washing up.
It takes contrived to a whole new level.

Although it was Hughes who mistook princess Anne for a man. That was the best era.

That not a sports quiz show though unless you count 2 questions an hour a quiz

For some reason I can remember that I watched it religiously in 1985 and could get many of the questions right. Now, no chance.
