No Colin Murray so one can only hope that they share the same level of knowledge and passion for the EFL as shown by the jolly Irishman. No other details of format or guest pundits yet. What a disappointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Said Red Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 I don't know if they considered Murray, but once he took the Countdown gig, it was always going to be difficult to get him for this as well. I believe their recording schedule is quite intensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2015 Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Only just got used to it being on Quest tbh and Colin Murray was a brilliant presenter. Bit of a shame in my eyes 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 One thing- ITV4 a little disappointing, a League such as the Championship, the Football League in fact probably deserves a greater platform- why not ITV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's getting a first showing on ITV4 and a repeat showing on ITV following Match of the Day finishing on BBC 1. I think the chances of it getting a 9pm timeslot on ITV's main channel (or BBC1/BBC2) at that time is fanciful - Channel 5 is about as high as it could realistically get a 9pm timeslot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted June 30, 2022 Report Share Posted June 30, 2022 Any idea if there will be a Sunday morning repeat like Quest did? That`s the one I used to watch TBH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myol'man Posted July 1, 2022 Report Share Posted July 1, 2022 Main ITV channel would rather show a celebrity soccer match (did I just say that ) than the Championship in a prime time slot. Remember people moaning about Colin Murray (he's just a DJ) when he first got the gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shahanshahan Posted July 31, 2022 Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 I watched the highlights show last night; and to me it pretty much felt identical to the Quest show. The guest was Dean Ashton, and pretty much all of the same reporters/commentators were used. Even appeared to be filmed in the same studios, with the staging layout looking very identical. Plus it's also made by the same production company, I believe (IMG). Hugh Woozencroft seemed like a fine presenter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2015 Posted July 31, 2022 Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 I didn't mind it at all, but think they've done Colin Murray dirty still - a brilliant presenter who has always been overlooked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winsaw Posted July 31, 2022 Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 I thought the guy presenting it was a bit bland but he seamed to know his stuff, the show is exactly the same as when on quest I was hoping that they might have moved to a more motd style for the championship with each game getting proper highlights and analysis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted July 31, 2022 Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 It looked like a carbon copy of the Quest program, the look, the feel, the sound. All apart from Colin Murray. His interest and personality drove the show. I wasn't a massive fan of Ashton before, without Murray it's worse. It may improve, but I will probably carry on recording and forwarding past the chat.

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted July 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 Like other posters I agree it's a sort of rehash of EFL on Quest but with less highlights and more chat, a presenter who's going to have to do better than his current monotone delivery (he ain't no Colin Murray) and no badges showing suppirt for prostate cancer. Need to give a little time to see if it improves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
