I prefer Alex Scott, I think she is really good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to put your finger on it. Great stuff from Doucore there shame he didnt quite manage to squeeze it in himself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandarilla Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Lineker's replacement. Has to be. I reckon Dion Dublin has a shout.He's got the presenting stuff going, but like you i think they'll move away from a white bloke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's easy enough to be the one answering questions, not asking them. I think he's terrible on HUTH. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accies1874 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Lineker's replacement. Has to be. I read that Jermaine Jenas has been earmarked as his replacement. I actually don't mind him as a pundit but I'm not really sure about him as a presenter. Mark Chapman's the obvious choice to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummie Clyde Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Jenas annoyed me when loads of shocks happened in the FA Cup and he said "most people want to see the top teams left in the competition".No they don't! This year's competition is incredibly tedious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year's competition is incredibly tedious.I like shocks, obviously - but a top team against a shitey team in the latter rounds is rarely interesting, and usually ends in a comfortable win. I want early shocks, with a reasonably even set of teams left for the semis and the final. I'm quite looking forward to these games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those people should be ashamed of themselves then. The absolute pinnacle of daytime tv. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Man United were playing, say, Southampton, I'd at least watch until Man United scored. Four sets of clubs that always win things competing for a trophy that none of them really give a f**k about. There's no drama or interest there. Can't even hope for Arsenal red cards and injuries so they miss the Villa game as they have Watford after us...

No they don't! This year's competition is incredibly tedious. You'd think that but I'm sure there's been a bit of research that disproves it, We here on football forums tend to be more interested than many so we think others think like we do (I like upsets and underdogs too) but many casual fans and especially overseas fans only care about the biggest teams and best players. The viewing figures back it up too, Leicester 's shock win was a huge story but it also saw declining TV viewers. Why would you want to watch a final full of nobody's when you could be watching Messi's Pogba's Sala's etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 You maybe correct. Such finals are still dull as f**k to me, and probably to many people who have a real investment in a team. Armchair fans prefer the "big" clubs against each other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, technically brilliant players can sometimes have a way of nullifying one another which in high stakes games which leads to dull entertainment 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armchair fans prefer the "big" clubs against each other. I'm confused abs to how you can marry up this view (which I generally share) with your anti-FFP stance on the other thread. Two of this semi-final places are being taken up by clubs that bought their way there and thus denied two clubs who have achieved their success "organically". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
