I make no apology for having a good old vent here!!! but BBC1 have live football on again until 9pm tonight..... now correct me if Im wrong ( and im sure some will) Why put football on the main channel, when it appeals to a minority of viewers!!!! :mad:
Surely it would have been better to show the match on BBC 2.......... or better still BBC 3 or BBC 4!!! , on second thoughts... :idea: :idea: why show it at all............ :mad:
I pay my licence fee to be entertained informed, and educated..NOT to watch 22 grown men kicking a silly little ball into the back of some stringy thing!!!!!... :mad: :mad:

How do you know it "appeals to a minority of viewers"?0

I agree.
I don't pay my licence fee to be entertained, informed and educated...NOT to watch 22 grown men chasing a bag of wind, watched by tens of thousands of ne'erdowells.Small change can often be found under seat cushions.
