Football Focus could be axed by worried BBC after losing one third of audience

Saturday lunchtime show Football Focus, fronted by Alex Scott, is said to have lost a third of its audience - triggering crisis talks at the BBC over its future
www.dailystar.co.uk www.dailystar.co.uk

Hardly surprising it's losing viewers in droves if anybody has watched it recently. Alex Scott was a breath of fresh air when she first came in but has grown more irritating by the week. She just laughs all the time and is very lightweight, the same as her co presenters. You feel like you're on a bloody night out with them and it's as boring as it sounds. The interviews are cheesy and large sections devoted to women's football, diversity etcetera. Get ex pro footballers back on who've actually played at the highest level and concentrate on the games being played with proper analysis. It needs to stay for people who can't afford to pay for sky etcetera, sort it out.

I’ll say it for you, have 2 x Football Focus programs, one for men’s football, the other for women’s, you’ll find the viewing figures for the female version will be tiny, supply and demand.

Only 5 games into the season and the dickheads at Sky are coming up with this shit

They would never produce that sort of content about Ronaldo or Messi. It is designed to attract viewers from LFC, AFC, MUFC fans. SKY goes out its way to be negative about City. It is bizarre that they are trying to undermine Haaland because he is the Premier League's biggest world star at the moment and SKY needs all the revenue it can get moving forward.

At the moment it's a complete mess. With all respect to the women's football I too wish they had their own channel, the same on sky. Both formats are trying to be everything to everybody and terrified of doing or saying the wrong thing. The pundits are crap too.

I would go differently. Eg Wimbledon, scrap equal prize money for men and women. Double prize money for all genders / identities

Professional Sport like everything else in a business environment should be subject to supply and demand. If you give all the same money in this country the Premier League would go down the shitter. Why the fuck would you want to play more for sports that generate so much less revenue?

In some cases, because some sports have much larger upsides for revenue growth.
 
Whilst St Henry Winter is praising Kyle Walker, the bellend keeps bringing up "Kyle has done some stupid things and being on the front pages for the wrong reasons". You only need to mention it once, his achievements have heavily outweighed his vices. Also Henry, you spoke about Maguire without mentioning the Mykonos incident..
 
Call it a hunch but I reckon Sly sports believe Fernandes volley can only be described as stunning.
Why else would they have 3 consecutive headlines on their main page about it?

I guess this is what happens when you only cover the dippers and the rags, other fans stop watching and with the rags being shit they have stopped watching. This only leaves the dippers to watch it.

I havent watched it for decades and only watch MOTD perhaps once a season

Good.

It's those type of headlines that keep the masses locked into denial, while that cesspit of a club and everyone in it continues to crumble.

Same here. Weekend used to revolve round fixed points like Sat football shows. The format with ancient ex players acting as experts and sycophantic presenters cleaning their haemorrhoids for them has had its day. It’s just stale.
These shows are hanging around like the last versions of TOTP.

With Jimmy as the DJ….
 
Chris Bevan of the BBC seems incredibly misinformed, doesn’t even know we’ve got Newcastle on Wednesday meaning Rodri is available against Brighton.
