The BT Sports commentary for the dippers was off the scale.
Encouraging and cajoling their in-play, even convincing themselves and the viewers the game was exciting for the neutrals and fans, at one point Darren Felcher was begging for a goal from dipper Joke Homez, justifying it by saying he hadn't scored in his career so far.
The post match analysis was even funnier, it was like tuning into an expensive private mental health counselling session for both clubs.
Yeh but they got injuries, they are missing key players, ooh "baby steps", ooh "a clean sheet and they can build from there", ooh Cakpoo "needs patience and time from the fans", at one point both pundits representing the teams spat out the cliches of no value whatsoever in "xxx cloob would give their right arm to be in top four at the end of the season."
No critical analysis, not pulling a spotlight on how the quad squad are currently scrambling in mid table, both clubs buying players in January, ignoring holes in key areas, not even a discussion about the offside, just gentle, softly, softly praise to soothe the ears of the kopshites.
