No doubt true, but can't surely be any worse than some we have seen on other channels in the past Didn't ITV's coverage literally be just highlights and no studio interludes?

ExiledAjax Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Haven't got time to read the article. Doesn't bother me, but presumably this may clash with MOTD? Starts at 9pm so no clash. The article says it's to be a 90 minute programme starting at 9pm. MOTD normally starts no earlier than 10:20. Assuming they review the leagues in order you'll miss highlights of crap games in League 2 at the very worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoke_Gifford_Red Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 It's five. Expect a shorter programme with ads. See their joke of a cricket highlights programme 90 minutes versus 80 on BBC, albeit that doesn't include as breaks. I think its positive for the Football League - seen elsewhere that Channel 5 matched other bids however it is in the primetime slot so much more likely to get viewers.

BUT There is one programme they do well and that is "Today at the Test" which is a way for cricket followers to get to see extended coverage of test cricket for free. If they do as well with the Football League, I won't be complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negan Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Gotham on C5 is one of the best programmes on at the moment.... anyway back to the thread. I never watched the FLS. Was pointless waiting for it to come on for 30 seconds of highlights and a brief word or 2 about how we're doing. Might as well just watch the city highlights on our YouTube channel.

I think its positive for the Football League - seen elsewhere that Channel 5 matched other bids however it is in the primetime slot so much more likely to get viewers. Four ad breaks at about five minutes each. I won't insult you and do the arithmetic. It will not be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Once CH5 get their hands on football they will start to build in peripheral programming to fill their schedules. Maybe they will will do a host of conspiracy theory shows along the lines of "Was Hitler getting orders from his dog?" maybe "Were there really gurt Sheedheads in the away end that day?" or "is the demise of Bristol Rovers all part of Lansdown plan?" :} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoke_Gifford_Red Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Four ad breaks at about five minutes each. I won't insult you and do the arithmetic. It will not be good In the example you give there are 70 mins shown on Five and 80 on the BBC. However, there is probably well in excess of 15 minutes of "studio insight" on each episode of the Football League Show - if Five decide not to include this the amount of actual highlights may not be much different between as present.
