The bbc seem to have moved on from fish finger to that muppet with the daft name at the red dippers.

You'll need to narrow it down a bit mate

Yep, he's everywhere you look at the minute. Maybe he's propositioned another pregnant fan and his PR team are in full "make him shiny and clean" flow, who knows how these things work?

Getting tactical tips off Martin Keown is like getting maths lessons off Diane Abbott

Skiing lessons off Stephen Hawking.

Fish fingers = st Marcus. Weird name = Trenton. The bbc have been fluffing for st Marcus and now have moved on to Trenton. Food banks first now it’s documentaries about rejection in football. Hope that clarifies it….

Couple of years time it will not be around, would love to know the viewing figures as would say they are poor. Perfect example of how to ruin a once good programme.

They've also ruined Question of Sport, it's become so scripted and wooden.

Ah right - Terence Trent D'Arby.
Thought it might have been Klippety or Darwin

Trying to appeal to an audience that never watched it before while alienating those who did watch it. Seems to be the formula for most of TV, especially sports today.

Also sounds like the way City’s corporate run things….

Alyson Rudd (in the Times):
"Why I voted for a different Norwegian"

Well there's a shock!
Yawn...

everything you need to know about the idiocy of this balloon can be explained in her appearance on the Sunday Supliment show on sky sports that used to be shown on a sunday, basically a bunch of mostly inept journo’s (Martin Samuel being the exception and was the only reason worth watching) pontificating about the previous days football etc, i unfortunately had the displeasure of putting it on the tele, probably due to a city induced hangover from the day before and not being at my best, the episode was run of the mill until they began discussing the best players to ever kick a ball, i thought interesting let’s see how this goes,the usual suspects were touted & there was healthy debate on the subject then one of the journalists asked Rudd in all seriousness who was the greatest footballer she had to pleasure of witnessing live in the flesh her reply was “Jari Litmanen” cue the other journalist looking at her in a combination of shock, confusion, bemusement, you could see all of them bordering on hysterics and to suggest she find another profession if that was her serious answer, but then something interesting happened you witnessed live the mental gymnastics of all the other football journalists considering the wholly understandable reaction of simply ridiculing her embarrassing response combined with the fact she was obviously a woman and perhaps it wouldn’t be P.C. to point out her ludicrous response incase they’re was any thoughts that to point this out was because she happened to be female, which had nothing to do with it, it was because to say as a football journalist that “Jari Litmanen” was the best football player she’d seen was open to ridicule wether she was a man or a woman so instead they nodded in a somber tone, and quickly moved on, whereas the honest and truthful reaction had to be restrained incase any offence may be felt by the buffoon, what she knows of the sport could be written on the top left hand side of a postage stamp.
