You'd think they could at least have shown some extended action from the few games that did go ahead, rather than half-hearted crap like the non-debate about plastic pitches, and their new ninety second stop the clock feature that was so deeply dull that I've already forgotten what it was about. Amateurish garbage.

Interesting feature on the Albion's nightmare game against Brizzle Rovers, back in Cloughie's time, featuring NSC's very own Peter Grummit.

That was the one of the few bits worth watching, the rest of time it was so interesting I deep cleaned the kitchen. Wooooo!

Giant Seagull

Yep agree about Murty. I last watched it in about 1922 and he was on it then. That James 'bald Italia' bloke is also a bit of a crap presenter imho - not the done thing to slag him off I know, but for my money he's just not charismatic enough to carry the show.

Its OK with me. I won't be watching LKO South again.
The bald bloke irritates me with his weird way of speaking.
Murty was probably a reasonable player, he is not any sort of TV presenter. In fact I can't stand him.
I appreciate the BBC are trying to put on a "local" TV show, but this is a poor programme.
Its not that the idea is wrong because I watched one of the northern ones the other week and the presenters made it watchable.

The 90 second thing was pure Alan Partridge

It was funny when Murty got hit in the wrist. Good to see that

I don't watch on a Monday night but wait until Tuesday morning and then watch both Ldn/SE and South on iPlayer. That way you can watch the Albion twice but zoom over the dull bits.

I agree the 'plastic pitch' debate was shite, as it was bigged up as a hot issue. Which it frankly isn't.
But on the whole, they do OK with a limited format/budget.
Sometimes I say to my kids when they're moaning - just cos something's not brilliant doesn't meant it's rubbish. There's quite a lot of ground in the middle. And I think LKO occupies it.
And I agree with [MENTION=14365]Thunder Bolt[/MENTION] - recording both the versions that cover Albion and then cherry picking the bits you want to watch is the thing to do.

Where is the 8-2 bristol rovers game feature? I'm scrolling around the programme on iplayer and can't find it...

I don't think it is a pile of shite actually. I like the fact that you are guaranteed to have some coverage of the team you support. Dan Walker's a good presenter and the late night slot suits its chatty feel. Last night Mark Bright obviously got them to show the 8-2for a laugh at us so I think a mass petitioning of the programme to show the Liverpool 9 Palace 0 might now be in order...

It's the last item on London & SouthEast version. In answer to [MENTION=22389]bashlsdir[/MENTION], we feature on both.

Thank you, sir.
Before, I myself watching a very uninteresting piece on Tommy Hutchinson on one of the other editions!
