This is much better . I can hear the crowd and there's no mindless post mortem .

Need the commentators but drop the “expert” pundits.

 

[olderskyblue]

Just drop Lineker. He’s a twat.

 

[Finham]

20 mins? Pathetic.

 

[tommydazzle]

Loved it.

You go to real matches without having any personal interactions with anyone about the game you’re watching?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The pundit ‘analysis’ doesn’t add anything, the commentary usually just states the freaking obvious. So it’s nice to just see the football.

Plenty of ways to watch PL highlights as it were last night - which some times I do, can get it done in 10 mins.

But MOTD should not be changed, because it was fucking crap last night.

Yep, bloody awful at lunchtime too with Football Focus being replaced by Bargain Hunt.

MOTD was dire last night, but it does need a new format and Alan Shearer is pants. Always thought a more fan orientated perspective could work.... but needs some creative work.
Lots of kids and older people love MOTD as their only way to enjoy football so it is needed as a public service on BBC but maybe us purists on SBT don't favour the bland format. Don't want ITV anyway near PL highlights as they EFL coverage is dire too.

Did the ratings drop?

The danger for MOTD is this will make more people realise you can, legally, get the highlights of Premier League games with commentary within an hour of the games finishing

Seems the PL refused the BBC access to the world feed commentary as there is no contractual obligation to give them access to ti

no, shocked they didn't go up. It was a car crash and you now how people like to gawp at a car crash.

If it carries on like it was yesterday it'll drop

 

[chiefdave]

Good chance the ratings will be through the roof. How many people tuned in just to see how bad it was?

 

[olderskyblue]

They should get the old sky team on it, Phil Thompson et al

First time Ive watched it in ages and it’s so much better. It just feels more real.

20 minutes of badly edited silent football

 

[David O'Day]

looks like motd2 is going to be the same

When proper football fans watch match highlights with no commentary and just natural crowd noise:

 

[rob9872]

I'm in agreement on Lineker being a twat, but surely anyone who prefers to watch a game without sound can simply mute their TV, I mean I know it's groundbreaking news ...

 

[Sbarcher]

Andy Gray and Richard Keys - bring them home

 

[Saddlebrains]

Half a million more viewers

Lol

I prefer it when Amazon have their games on. You can watch with crowd noise only.

Colour me shocked.

Rightly so on a week of publicity like no other

 

[David O'Day]

Rightly so on a week of publicity like no other

everyone stops to look at car crash

 

[Tommo1993]

Seriously, just download the Sky Sports app or go on their channel on YouTube.

Don’t try and fix an unbroken MOTD.

The worse part was no live commentaries on 5Live. Although the live TV coverage of Chelsea v Man U women won't be missed by many, i'm sure
