From next season.........................

[BradtheMiller]

Channel 5 have the rights to Saturday FL highlights which will be broadcast at 9pm. So long as Adrian Chiles & Andy bloody Townsend keep away from the show I'll watch. It'll be a 90 minute highlights show, so at least half a dozen ad breaks......

That's a more reasonable time, I can never stay awake for the one on BBC1.

Good news, but can we also steer clear of steve claridge

 

@tonyhateley ha ha ha your 'puter has a stutter

Repeating twice is nearly as bad as my kindles corrective text, but not quite!

Is it the end of the Football League show?

I know the show as representation of the FL, just unsure. Channel 5 tend to replicate popular shows either really well or extremely poor, the thing is, I don't get back until after 9pm so it's a little out of my schedule. I'd probably get in just as Notts finish knowing my luck but it might be different if I am driving!

Looking forward to it.

I hope they get proper representation of the football league in terms of host and pundits.

im not a fan of channel five, the version of top gear they have is cr@p, gadget show and all the lame bbc/itv copies are.

if this will be one of them style shows i dont know but i hope they go for something unique and different. i dont mind steve clariage, i just dont like that junior bloke. who would be good people for channel 5 to have as host and as pundits?

would it not be nice for them to change the pundits each week and rotate between ones who have covered quite a few clubs?

sorry @PTID1862 that would mean steve would come back.

I usually tape the Football League show because it's on so late but I find it hard to follow, the goals just seem to come thick and fast and they don't show much of the build up play.

 

I enjoy watching the longer highlights of the Championship games but the league one and two games are just literally the goals. I guess you can't show any longer highlights of every game in a hour and a half.

I agree @tonyhateley and they also ignore some controversial incidents.

I'm pleased about this because whenever it's just League 1 & 2 they don't bother with a show, yet when it's just the Championship teams playing they still do a show.

Will chanel 5 be any different? I think they will make it very gimmicky.

I dont like that channel, its a shame itv did not obtain them. i could put up with that

[BromPie]

I am hoping for the best but a lot depends on who gets their hands on it.

Channel 5 have some decent shows, though some poorly take ideas and leave the channel feelings very gimmicky which I agree with @CliftonMagpie on.
