    So well done.

    Loved the Charlie Nicholas stand up bit taking the piss from when he mugged himself off with a terrible comeback at Jeff.

    Curbs’ cans. Cans for Curbs. 

    I know what beer will be referred to in this house from now on.

    Their acting is very impressive, Curbs is brilliant, great bit of casting

    Curbs is a much better actor than I thought he would be.... classic
    Fantastic video, superb PR move.

    Sky have dropped a major bollock on this one.

    Praps

    Think they wanted to go upmarket so got in Clinton Morrison for the articulate insight 'yea Jeff, but no Jeff, they're kicking the ball and running around, yea but no, it looks like a team might score, yea but no, like I said Jeff, both teams run around'.',  Iain Dowie is there as eye candy for the ladies and excellent mumbling dexterity.  Wouldn't be surprised to see multimillionaire relegation consultant Pardew turning up on there. The inappropriate palace body popping has probably harmed his career more than always getting relegated.

    I see Question of Sport has suffered a comparable change. Shame as all 3 got good chemistry but I stopped watching it years ago (even though I used to love it) because it was same old. I prefer League of Your Own as more dynamic

    Not so fussed about Barker leaving, but still felt Dawson and Tuffnell were good fun.

    I haven't watched QoS for a long time but found Dawson unbearable. Regarding ALOTO I think it's become a lot easier to watch since Corden stopped doing it.

    In terms of diversity I'm not clear what the channels are playing at or what they're aiming for. I'd love to see some sort of explanation.

    Changes need to be made but to do so in such a half-arsed manner seems designed just to make things worse.

    There needs to be an intelligent dialogue re what constitutes diversity in modern Britain rather than knee-jerk changes. If things are done badly you will lose far more support than you gain.

    Matt Dawson is similar to Lyle Taylor in his modesty. Another person who wished he was cake so he could eat himself

    Couldn’t stand either Dawson or Tuffers, a complete pair of cocks, who really believe they are a proper couple of “Blokes” .

    They'd be better off scrapping the program tbh.

    Met Tuffnel at an industry awards event. He was quite dull. F** knows what he thought of me..

    on BBC final score on Saturday, the pundits were Dion DublIn and Tim Cahill .. Dublin's voice is so loud he doesn't need a microphone, his laugh is like a poor man's Chris Aker- boostie's, i.e ear shattering .. it wouldn't be so bad if he had something sensible to say .. Cahill is just soooooo bad, he stares like a rabbit in the headlights and mutters some innane rubbish about who knows what .. BBC bring back the Rt Hon Garth Crooks ((:>)

    Don’t blame you, Dawson is unbearable.

    Can't comment on Soccer Saturday, as I haven't seen the new pundits in action. Watched MOTD2 last night though with Jenas and Richards. My god, Richards can barely string two words together and the constant "banter" with the presenter was cringe. Utter rubbish. Jenas on the other hand is articulate, likeable and comes across as very knowledgeable. His analysis of how Leeds played with 5 up was actually pretty interesting, although I'm sure he had some help to compile it all. He's by far and away the best on the BBC

    I agree that Jenas is one of the best pundits to emerge in years.  Very articulate and considered and manage to stay switched on when listening to him.

    The one thing we've established is that both black and white pundits can be equally good or bad.

    Wonder how much they were his words. Can’t see Curbs saying ‘yous’ unless it was scripted.
    I worked in a place that was comprised of an even split of Essex and Kent people, sometimes referred to as North and South (of the river).  The word 'yous' is pure Essex, it was often heard uttered by those strange folk from across the river.  We Kentish men/men of Kent/South Londoner's only ever talked right proper like.

    Ahh for crying out loud all this is bollocks while BAME people are at higher risk of dying from Covid; the current government is actively trying to implement a hostile environment and has major questions to answer over Windrush; and when black people are told to peacefully protest re BLM, they do so, and a dance crew gets thousands of complaints to Ofcom.

    I could not give a fuck about replacing the hosts on a show I do not watch, assuming this is in the name of "diversity" (which has never been stated). They're literally not the issue.
