Playing devil's advocate here, I've seen a lot of comments on different teams forums that in this day an age it's outdated and people have instant access to check on their phones.

If that is the case why do we still need MOTD?

Now I haven't watched it in several years, but my lad watches all the PL goals via YouTube on the way back from our game. Do we need to wait 6 hours to see the same content as MOTD show, when all game highlights can be seen 30 mins after the final whistle, with no ex-player bias to summarise?

There are still plenty of people who enjoy MOTD as their main roundup of the weeks football and who don’t want to throw all their cash at Sky, BT and whoever else

It's match analysis is firmly aimed at idiot level. They should just show highlights of each game without punditry.

Jibs for the boys. It's been a crap show since Des Lynam left.

Exactly.
No one ever said "in not watching MOTD tonight because Danny Murphy isn't on it".

There are irritating pundits on all channels.

Exactly.

In the same way they’re definitely watching it because Danny Murphy is on it.

It‘s a gentle look at highlights of all the day’s games.

Agree with this. The standard of punditry is poor though. I don’t really feel I learn much I can’t see for myself, if that makes sense?

He has risen.

Even his Mum would agree with that
