It's a shame to see Ben Arfa's career fall apart like this but I certainly don't regret siding with him over a smug, egotistical dinosaur like Pardew. One represents dreams, talent and freedom, whilst the other is a Gouffran man.
If they put the adverts between the analysis and the next game, it'd be slightly better. But you can't polish a turd and having ANY ad breaks, plus Chiles, Tyldesley, Townsend etc will feel like the end of the world.
