I agree totally!
No doubt i will upset someone as i cant abide football either, even after years of indoctrination at school they didnt brainwash me.
There coverage of sport is bizzare to say the least.
The BBC now has all three motorbike series and rarely shows even one of the races live yet during an interview with some athelete [cant remember who].Thet where asked what it was like to have so much support for athletics from such a supportive crowd of 8000.
All the bike series get more support on practice and qualifiying days and as for race days your talking 70000 up and thats just the british superbikes not the world series, yet very few races are shown live and in most cases its very edited highlights.

Totally agree with you about the bikes, whats the f***ing use of paying a s*** load of money to get the rights to show the bikes and then show a highlighted version of the race, you might aswell let another channel have the rights and do a descent job. It really p***es me off, all they do is wreck it and people just don`t bother watching it. Only saving grace is at least i`ve got sky, alot of people ain`t that fortunate and have to make do with terrestrial tv. Sorry rant over, thanks for listening.

why couldnt they put 24 on after the snooker? it finishes around 10.30 so whats the problem. a bit of advertising and then we would no it was on a different time, but to take it off is crap. it isnt as if they have some new programe to put on in its place. can they not find a 45 minute slot once a week? you know the problem dont you, if 24 was a repeat there would be no trouble finding a slot for it.

i have been fedup with the beeb for years, i started watching the xfiles from day one, which has always beens messed around, not only in channel but day and even slot, but not having sky i had to put up with it because i love the show. but that is the main reason why i buy tv stuff on dvd because i can watch when i want. does anyone know when the beeb last showed a new episode of the simpsons? i stopped watching a while ago because i got fed up with repeats. its worse for the simpsons, imagine having to find a regular 20 minute slot a week, it must be a nightmare.

Tired of the snooker and p`eed off with the BBC?
Time to insert your newly released GOODIES DVD and enjoy.
Two birds, one stone....
Can`t quite understand the delay in this release, but it was certainly worth the wait.


Ecky thump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, as a snooker fan and not a 24 fan, let`s compare stats.

I see snooker - once a year for two weeks.

You see 24 - 11 months and 2 weeks of the year.

How have you got the audacity to complain with this ratio?

Think before you speak...
