Bald guy is a twat, but I can't get away from the football and I love to follow the progress/demise of loads of clubs. There is nothing better on the box if you have an interest in the lower leagues and emergent players.

They have about 15-20 mins analysis for 2 games (which they pre chose before kick off so they could be crap) and then about 30 seconds for everyone else. And that unfunny bald guy does some stupid report which wastes another 10 mins when they could be showing football! - in the last show it took 15 mins for the second game to be shown..
I don't mind the FLS, it was never going to be a great show IMO but the one I hate is MOTD 2, they drag it out too much with all the crappy build up to the matches they are going to have on.
Most of the time their are 2/3 games on a sunday but they manage to drag it out for much longer with the build up.

That's the worst thing about it for me! They could end up featuring two 0-0 draws and having to give seven or eight goal thrillers minimal highlights.

Both MOTD & MOTD2 use lengthy "analysis" sections to either point out the bleedin' obvious or selectively reinforce stereotypes and it is very rare indeed that the pundits reveal anything in the slightest bit enlightening to anyone who knows anything about footie. If their "football for dummies" approach isn't annoying enough, the editing really gets my goat, especially if I've been to a match which is later broadcast or watched a game earlier in the day. I think they decide what points they want to make before they do the editing and cut it to suit and I find this frustrating when I disagree with the key moments they select - which is fairly frequently.
Whilst FSL doesn't necessarily fare any better on this score, I do think that a lot of the crap is cut and the action to bullshit ratio is higher - which you'd expect as far more games are covered.

You really are a bellend Boon, this is the Championship. No one gives a shite unless their club is in it. Do you really expect the BBC to send a full camera team and commentator to every Championship game?
Idiot.

And yet you slag the "bald guy" who actually goes behind the scenes at these clubs and gives you an insight into what goes on.

Relax. I'm not angry because he's a twat, nor am I personalising it - he may actually be a sound bloke "in real life". But on the box he is irritating, perhaps because of the role he's been given, perhaps because of his useless script writers or perhaps because I would rather be watching some football when watching a football programme.
I don't really do angry. I'm quite cold and calculating "in real life".

Erm...no he doesn't. He plays a role. The players and Managers play a role. And they all pretend that something completely different goes on. Clubs have images to sell.

Ha ha, so it's a conspiracy to stop you seeing the real Championship?

You are sooooooooooo cute!
I don't expect to get a genuine insight into the "real Championship" from a scripted TV show so there's nothing to have a conspiracy about. If we can for the sake of argument discount match-fixing, the closest I'll ever get to understanding it is by watching the games.

There are cameras at every Championship match.. hence the highlights of every Championship match. The commentary can be added later.. like it is for almost all the Championship match highlights, and every match lower than the Championship.
Idiot.

Note the word "full" in my original post. They send several cameras to a featured match.

So you would rather watch the highlights of a 0-0 because of a nice sweeping camera angle or super slow motion than a 4-3 with regular cameras? If you would.. your an idiot
You should work for ITV, they love unnecessary slow motion shots.

I've got a few things I'd like to say about that bald guy. I can't though because I know how he likes to threaten people with legal action if they say certain things. ITKFact.
