Dear Football League Show

I am writing to express my vomit inducing disgust at all of you, especially Steve Claridge - who appears to be on a bet to screw up his face and talk rubbish more than anyone else on Saturday night television. Brighton and Hove Albion are EIGHT POINTS clear tonight at the top of League One on merit. Yet your biased and lightweight coverage almost resents us for it. We are not Sheffield Wednesday or Charlton so I suppose it doesn't matter that we are CANING League One. Even when rounding up the League One table Manish managed to make us invisible; "Huddersfield are now closer to the bottom than the top points wise, showing how open League One is"? Excuse me? I think he means "Huddersfield trail Brighton because they are EIGHT POINTS CLEAR and DESERVEDLY SO, let's all talk about BRIGHTON".

The same time last year, Leeds were six points clear and were being praised and discussed at length every single week. Gus's achievements in his short tenure here hugely trump Leeds' with all their money and expectation - and yet a segment discussing League Two striker ADAM LE FONDRE from some tinpot Northern hovel received approximately five times as much air time as our match highlights and subsequent discussion - the majority of which time was taken up with Claridge's uncomfortable gurning.

Shame on all of you. Especially Claridge.

Yours in absolute disbelief

Do you think they'll publish it next week?

Because I pay a license fee and expect a better quality product. The Football League Show is becoming absolutely dire.

Watch Peter Beagrie on Sky Sports for an ex-pro who truly knows the lower leagues, does his research and doesn't make wild predictions and assertions without having all the facts.

E.G. Claridge tonight in his smug, knowing and dismissive way;

"Middlesbrough have enough - they'll be fine".

Absolute cock.

It is the Football League show, not the Brighton and Hove Albion show. It would be good if they did more than a few seconds on every game, and had a better pundit (or pundits) than Claridge. Get rid of the pointless reading of the trite and worthless emails people send. Graham from Barry thinks Lincoln should stop scoring less than the opposition. :shrug:

Obviously they're going to be better on the website because if every game had the slightly extended version they put up there the show would be about 5 hours long.

If staying up till 1 o'clock is a bit of a problem why not watch it the next day on i player.

Totally agree, the FLS seem content to praise those below us, ( yeovil,swindon was more important:facepalm:) totally indicative of our achievements (4-0 nil Charlton, 3-0 nil today) with many other media outlets, and P'boro by their own admission saying they got absolutely hammered; "Brighton Knocked the ball around like Real Madrid" yet those idiots seem totally oblivious to it. Manish, who is tolerable gives us a backhanded mention, while that imbecile Claridge , talks nonsense about some other lower achieving outfit. TWAT. We will never get anymore than 5 seconds airtime because the majority of them are Palace fans, Lizzy and that Clem bloke. Claridge actually said he was coming to Withdean to watch us against Exeter on tuesday, he said he was going to enjoy it; well he can f*** off, Withdean isn't great as we all know, but its ours for this season and we're doing well, we don't get 5 mins, he shouldn't get 90, screw him. Don't see why we should have him grace our stadia.

Lets be like our other South coast counterparts and ban that TWAT and other members of FLS until they give us the recognition we deserve.

I agree there should have been more as this was a top of the table clash but the FLS is the only show that gives veryone a crack of the whip. If we were bottom of div 2 we would be hugely grateful that we got any coverage at all. Anyone who thinks we deserve more cover every week better go and support a premiership team as this is what we always complain about with them ('bigger etams should get more coverage').

Ok Claridge is a knob but be grateful for small mercies. The FLS is a huge boon for us lower league fans

Sorry this is just bollocks! Anyone remember the great coverage we got when we beat the Aints last year... when we were TINY!

Lizzy is a QPR fan and I cbelieve Clem supports a northern team. Claridge has always had a soft spot for us and until this season (even this season he praised our new ground to the heavens) he was very supportive of us.

Seems some fans think we should become like manure fans :facepalm:

Unbeleivable!

We are top of the league and playing dream football with the Amex nearly built yet you still find something to moan about - does it matter one iota?

Get things into perspective FFS!

I would rather we did not get notice untill after Christmas when we are 15 points clear. Was Charlton well clear at this stage last season.
I don't think Gus will let it slip.???
