I can't believe people are saying "Wow there must usually be 1+hour of studio patter". There were 6 games last night, do they really think they normally show only 3 minutes of each game? No. Aye the amount of comments I've seen saying that is staggering, can only presume it's from people that don't usually watch it but tuned on cos of either curiosity or they hate Lineker/Immigrants Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 (edited) the first 2 or 3 games usually seem to get about 10 minutes coverage, the later ones about 5 but may be 7-8 as you say, Disco. A lot more than 3 anyway Edited March 12, 2023 by Interpolic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The commentary was the bigger miss and the bigger problem for the BBC, they could have put a show out that lasted 45-60 minutes with that on. As it was, it was like the half time highlights you get on a dodgy stream. For clarity, I watched about 2 minutes of it this morning on iplayer out of curiosity about the format Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iklgizmo Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 There a top of the table, potential title decider in the women's game between Chelsea and Manchester United live on BBC 2 this lunchtime. Will be interesting to see what they do with that!! I think they're going to use fifferent commentary provided by the FA, but will there be anyone to actually host the programme??

Geordie Ahmed Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I haven't watched it yet but I watched the 3 min highlights that Sky have, just felt like it was way too short, especially for games that had a fair bit of action in them I know Sky will show 25-30 min highlights on their linear channels in the evening but for other teams that's too much of a commitment, which is why MOTD is the perfect balance between the two and why I like watching it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't watched it, and after last night when people might have tuned in out of morbid curiosity, I'll bet the viewing figures will drop like a stone. I guess the Beeb could try to replace Lineker with Richard Littlejohn or Gary Bushell if they are still alive, maybe that would save their ratings.

Yorkie Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Just caught up with it. I certainly wouldn't want to see MotD as we know it canned (not that that is going to happen), but I don't mind that format. Efficient way to catch up on all the highlights.

Paullow Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Crazy that MOTD 2 is only on for 15 minutes tonight - there were 4 matches (plus yesterdays goals), so even without pundits / presenters, you'd expect 40/45 mins minimum. Literally may as well just watch the Sky 3 min YouTube highlights instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
