Soccer Aid

[Frutos]

Anyone tuning in for this?

All for a great cause of course, and a chance to see some legends play - the RotW team has a front two of Ronaldinho and Shayne Ward off X-Factor, for example.

Remember Sergio from Kasabian scoring a blinder a few years ago, always worth a watch, that's if I can drag myself from glorious weather in the garden

Four hours a little excessive though ?

Brilliant, even Leicester fans have the golden touch as well at the moment

Olly Murs, makes Obika look a world class finisher anyhow.

Ronaldinho hasn't even done his boots up

 

[RM-Taylor]

At least those One Direction band players who came on got booed when all the girls were screaming. Don't even know why I'm watching this

Sorry - I know this is for charity - but are ITV really serious?

This. Listening to Tyldesley commentate is cringeworthy anyway but when he commentated a charity event like it matters - Christ on a bike. ITV is a desperate channel.

Damian Lewis was a revelation, well played sir ... could do a job.

Could never bring myself to watch stuff like this, even if I had been home. For the reasons you've already stated, and also because I can pretty much guarantee the crowd will make that high pitched squeaky noise you'd get at a One Direction concert.

Can I just ask: was Jonathan Wilkes in it? Wondered, as we don't seem to have had the annual "Who the **** is Jonathan Wilkes?" thread which tends to pop up annually in relation to this.

Was he in it? And has he done anything worthy of his fame yet, or is he still Williams' Mate?

That was Razorlight

Probably the cheapest form of prime time TV, do they also get some kind of tax relief as its a charity event as well?

 

[boik]

Dimitar Berbatov is a free agent and still looks class. Just saying!

I, personally, don't tend to go for all the giving to charities nonsense. But certain events are worthy of support...this is one of 'em.
Adults around the world are ********s, what with all the wars and stuff. Children suffer so it's a good thing that ITV take the time to showcase these events rather than airing another talent/reality/cookery show.
Do you moan about the REMF match as well, or is it just that it interferes with your Sunday tv viewing?

They did mention what he is currently doing, I guess to try and justify his appearance, but it was instantly forgettable as I can't remember what it was.

To be fair though at least he was the sort of player who should have been on the pitch, what devalued the whole match was at the same time the commentator was pleading with us "please donated a fiver, that's the same you pay for a cup of coffee nowadays" England bought on Defoe, how the hell did he qualify to play in a match like that.

I believe they said that he runs a performing arts school in Swindon.
