Has the BBC become a Tory tool?

[Metal Biker]

YES. I want this.

 

[HelloCity]

I think its great.
Why you have to bring the Tories into it is very strange.

 

[burning blue soul]

It was shit television.

MOTD is a dieing format. People who want to watch a 90 min programme late on a Saturday night with many other entertainment options is getting smaller and smaller each season, especially when they actual thing you are there to watch has already been online for the previous 5 hours.

The YouTube highlights especially for the big teams can get half a million views before the MOTD intro has started.

The “format” of commentary and pundits is just one of familiarity. We don’t need commentators when we’re in the ground nor do we need pundits stating the obvious of what we have just seen with our own eyes.

If you go to the ground or are a pretty big fan of football already then the analysis on MOTD isn’t really there for you, and it shouldn’t be.

Twitter bots out in force saying how much better it is - big opportunity for the defund the BBC mob this

So anybody who thinks it’s better is a Twitter bot?

I found it ok. At first it seemed a bit weird but only really because we are so used to the constant prattling of the commentators. Could have extended it and showed a bit more of each game though.

Always said the punditry is pointless
Micah Richards and Danny murphy describing goals we’ve already seen
If I record it i fast forward the analysis and interviews anyway, unless it’s city

Not exactly pointless, its useful for those who need to be told what to think.

It's like a highlights package on one of those overseas channels during halftime.

They didn't even show the team sheets did they?

Minimal effort on all fronts by a bunch of smacked arses who are showing "solidarity" (got to laugh when using that word to describe the behavior of a load of well off TV people).

Hope it bites them in the ass 'cause I liked it, needs a bit more effort with the editing and the visual package, and it's a winner for me.

Tired show that needs shaking up.

And even though it was obviously a foul, I did miss being told by some old-pro whether it was "enough" of a foul tonight.

Nope. But Twitter is awash with dodgy bot accounts posting similar stuff
