Because of the 'bias' rarely watched last season, it's a joke show really but he can't feature his home club these days as they're in the Prem.. Happy Days!

Claridge isn't on tonight so you're safer to switch on.

Makes me laugh how people reckoned Leicester got favourable billing on this show because of Manish. Seems to ignore the fact that they were fighting for promotion to the prem and ended up going up.

RFC is going to be disappointed. We aren't the last game to be covered in league 1. God knows what he's going to do if we get a mention from the pundits.

They were but we had plenty in our own box who you would hope could have dealt with them

The biggest problem looked to me was how easily they got into the crossing position and no attempt to pressurise the crosser.

...and that is what defending is about, stopping supply rather than trying to deal with the end product.

There was but their player came jnto the space and past our so called defenders.
In the last goal it appeared that willis was just beaten to the ball having not attacked it.

The order of games is based on league position, but the BBC have always hated us and you can't deny the entire presenting team were Leicester fans.

Shocking program, always has been. Has the most terrible presenters. They should just stick the goals on On Demand and get rid of it.

Really? You think an entire TV channel hates our football club? Further, the entire channel has always hated the club? Crikes!

Does Channel 4 hate Wolves? Does Dave hate Workington Town?

Is it only TV channels that hate specific clubs, or is it all companies? Does Glaxo Smithkline hate Sunderland?

And some on here recon that he is not a proven goal scoer as only one season to compare.
Well they will be eating those words when we struggle and others get the fruits of our ex players.
Others as in teams that are bigger then us another reason to fucking hate Sisu are these clubs really bigger and more hungry for promotion then us

I think it's a poor show, but don't hold Manish or Clarridge responsible. After all, it's not like sky used to be bias to us when Richard Keys was on it was it!!

That said, the shows a bit like BBC Midlands Today; we only get a mention if we gets hammered, sack a manager or there's some negative news they want to remind us about! Especially when Nick is presenting!!

The problem seems to me to be that people watch PL coverage on MOTD, & expect the same coverage for their own team on the FL show.
Sadly I think the coverage of 3 divisions in a similar time span as one is going to leave most fans disappointed at the coverage of THEIR team. Unless of course their team are right in the mix of promotion or playing against one that is - it's always going to be a cursory showing/mention.
I can't see why they don't just put extended highlights for each team or division on iPlayer...24hrs post kick-off (I.e 3pm Sunday)?

Very sensible post.

May be a rights issues re. on line. In fairness to the club, you can get highlights (sometimes extended) on Sky Blues player.

Paranoia! If they were City fans you'd probably think it was great!
