72 REASONS TO STAY IN ON SATURDAY

Posted on: 28.07.2009

 

BBC Sport have announced plans for a brand new Saturday night highlights programme called 'The Football League Show', which will follow 'Match of the Day' and showcase all the goals from the Coca-Cola Championship, League 1 and League 2.

 

Presented by Manish Bhasin, The Football League Show will begin on Saturday 8th August at 11.10pm on BBC1. Joining Manish in the studio, with his unique brand of expert analysis and candid opinion on major talking points, will be Steve Claridge, whose playing career included spells at Leicester City, Portsmouth, Millwall and Birmingham City to name but four clubs. 5 Live regular Mark Clemmit takes up the role of roving reporter, bringing viewers all of the stories making the headlines.

 

Live coverage of The Coca-Cola Football League also returns to the BBC for the first time since 1988. Ten matches from the Coca-Cola Championship will be shown live, beginning with West Bromwich Albion v Newcastle United on Saturday August 8th at 5.20 pm (kick-off 5.30pm) on BBC1.

 

BBC Sport Online will simulcast the live Championship games and provide match edits of the weekend's games' highlights. In addition, there will be a divisional goals round up from each division every week. All the Carling Cup and Johnstone's Paint Trophy goals will also be available.

 

The Football League Show will also be available for seven days on BBC iPlayer and on Red Button until midday on Sunday.

 

The Carling Cup also returns to the BBC with live coverage for the first time since 1987. There will be a highlights programme for each round, the first of these on Wednesday, 12th August, featuring Macclesfield Town v Leicester City. The Carling Cup Final will be shown live as will one leg of each Semi Final.

 

Highlights of the Coca-Cola Football League Play-Offs will bring the season to a dramatic conclusion.

 

Football League Commercial Director Stewart Thomson welcomed the news: "We are delighted to be starting this new relationship with the BBC, alongside our long-standing broadcasting partner Sky Sports.

 

"This season, supporters of Football League clubs will be able to enjoy their club's matches across a range of different broadcasting platforms, giving them the most comprehensive coverage of our competitions ever seen."

 

In addition to the BBC's offering, Sky Sports will be showing live coverage of up to 80 Coca-Cola Football League matches, including games from all three divisions and the Play-Off Finals at Wembley Stadium.

Manish Bhasin and Steve Clardige. Cripes. That is going to be one insightful show.

 

I wish the BBC would stop fucking around and get some actual pundit. For fucking ages they've been relying on Lawrenson and Hansen; that's literally all they've got of any decency. Say what you like about Lawrenson, he's better than the rest of the other twats. Keown, Dixon, Shearer, Crooks, Strachan, Le Saux, etc etc etc - they're all just shit.

I like Manish, but Clemmit is an irritating, overbearing t***.

 

And a smoggy to boot

 

What a tosser

Reckon they should get Pardew in again.

 

"Yeah, awful start by Newcastle today. West Brom just shagged them up the arse"

 

Only him and Big Ron could make this show truly special

Marcel Desailly is who's needed.  The BBC can also say they were thinking of the hard-of-hearing if he makes an appearance.

finally our dream of "the desailly and mandela show" is in the pipeline!!!!!

 

seriously though, its great news to give some proper attention to the lower leagues

It's on the iPlayer?!?!

 

That's f***ing immense imo. Regular MOTD doesn't get that privilege due to licensing s****. MINT.

 

Yeah but only due to the fact that the Premier League is worth licensing. Have you ever seen the Football League show on ITV? Every other clip is either a penalty or a sending off and occasionally if your very lucky you might see a goal from outside the area.

Could not give less of a shit. The show will have NUFC on, therefore it is the show I care about.

And at worst we'll be third on every week I'd imagine.

Doubt it like. We'll be amidst the mediocrity of 12th-20th for most of the season for most of it so the novelty will wear off soon enough.

good. We chose a good year to go down.

 

Aye, tactical if you ask me. Everyone has to do their time.

 

Except the ones constantly winning trophies...theres a link there I just can't....

 

Innit sad we're trying to make the Championship more appealing than it actually is ?

God bless Newcastle fans !  :snod: O0
