haha my favourite bit of vandalism on the keeper's page is "Theoklitos enjoyed a superb debut for Norwich, receiving the Simon Tracey Award from the sponsors."

"Durning Soccerball matches Michael likes to fiddle with the hem of his shorts, or generally keep his hands by his side, as the goals rain in. Michael is an absolute bellwhiff of a goalkeeper and needs to be on the first plane back to Summer Bay."

 

[It's Baggio]

Still not a patch on what Sky would have done, but to be honest Sky don't seem to care about the Football League really - their focus is the Premier League alone.

80 odd live games, excellent preview/review shows. What more do you want?

lol Absolutely top drawer.

Bellwhiff!!!

Serafim Michael Theoklitos (born February 11, 1981 in Melbourne, Australia) is an Australian footballer who currently lets goals in for Norwich City. He claims to be a goalkeeper, but he cant be, surely?

 

[Gary]

"Theoklitos attended High School at Balwyn High School. He is of Greek ancestry. Michael has two brothers named Theo (eldest) and Andrew (middle) Theoklitos. Theokolitos or however you spell it, roughly translates (in latin) as; The Gary Doherty of goalkeeping."

on gary doherty's page it says "picking gary doughty for your football team is like picking a tumour" (sic)

 

[Flaggers]

And don't get me started on how much attention was given to Newcastle!

Ah but don't forget, as far as the Beeb are concerned, Newcastle are starting their "Season in the Championship". Not their "First" season, or their "life" in it, but their (in the BBC's mindset) one and only season in this league....so they're clearly going to go up unbeaten as runaway champions by January 24th...

Effing BBC tossers....

 

[Tango Man]

Did anyone else's show jump to show a chick on the bog?

Yeah, it actually flicked over to ITV1 which was showing Blue Crush. Perhaps ITV were trying to sabotage them?





Edit - beaten to it!

I want it to be free lol

 

[sebs]

"Theoklitos like Nelson, Doc, Drury and Otsemobor resisted many calls from the fans during the game to "f-off", by instead deciding to carry on being "total shitebags"."

 

[Huxley]

Might be right with the fester love in thing. They've just shown extended highlights of a dull 0-0 against Ipswich (Lee Martins new home)

 

[Gingers Across the Midfield]

WARNOCK SOUNDS P**SED

 

[Huxley]

"gary johnson and his players should've done more to persuade the ref..."

Oh right Colin, like you'd condone one of your players doing that! They'd be out if they'd said anything.

 

[Eddie]

The highlights of our game were basically all West Brom! erm,, no footage of the perfectly good goal we had disallowed :wacko:

 

[adam09]

It was awful. They were the only good chances West Brom had and two were from dodgy free kicks.

What happened to Dexter's efforts, the goal we scored etc hmm. Editor must be a Baggie, as it makes it look like they were good.

 

[Brolin]

John from Long Eaton wants to take his head out of his arse.

I realise he missed the penalty, but he did earn it himself - and 'unhappy with Rob Earnshaw's performance' - bit harsh.

 

[Baronvon]

Why on earth does Manish occsaionally take a walk around the studio whilst talking for no apparent reason?

It's just shit.

 

[adam09]

They need to stop reading emails out. We have internet forums and 606 to hear other peoples opinions. Just show more highlights/shorten the program!

:yes:

Absolutely...none of the emails ever make any interesting points anyway. Granted, neither do the likes of me but thankfully places like this exist where I can easily be ignored.

 

[It's Baggio]

Weird.

2 shows in and I'm yet to be annoyed by Claridge.

 

[Baronvon]

I actually quite like Steve Claridge as far as pundits go. That's not saying much really though.

 

[Cooky]

Claridge is alright to be fair, he is unbiased and knows the game. He comes out with a bit of crap but oh well, better than listening to Lawro and Hansen practically wanking over Liverpool.

The show is good because it's nice to finally have a show dedicated to the Football League on the BBC. The '24' style camera angles are a bit weird but oh well.

Little bit annoyed the highlights of our game only showed West Brom, but them, Newcastle, Boro and possibly Reading will get a lot of attention because they could be considered the 'Big 4' of this league.

For the third show (including the Carling Cup one) we have had extended highlights of Leicester. If they are involved in a good game and there's goals, then fine. But getting that amount of time for a 0-0 is awful. My mate who is a Leicester fan said that while they played well, the game wasn't brilliant. Our game sounded fantastic and surely the fact that we made WBA look average should have got a bigger look in?

Just goes to show that people don't actually go to, or are even aware of what happened at many of the games. Unless it's Leicester because Manish would probably start acting like a drama queen if it is suggested they get less than 5 minutes of highlights.
