Hirstys Salopettes Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I’m watching the game again ... I’m sure I’ve just heard Donkey Keown say ‘Fletcher scored 12 before Christmas, but only one since then, so has a point to prove’ ... and they pay these muppets to added expert opinion?

Big ones was Ilorfa not played much and Fletcher scored 12 goals before Xmas and only scored 1 since and before anyone says yes its technically true but being out with a serious knee injury kind makes goals dry up that iorfa stat got me every time the useless fool said it and what was with having Joey upfront supporting Nando. They couldn’t even be bothered to do basic research. Just looked and Iorfa has played 81% of the minutes in the league this season.

My mate text me to say Waddle was pitchside and Pearson was in the studio so atleast they wheeled out some Wednesday ex-pros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crookesowl Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Would they have interviewed Man City if we’d won? I dunno. Thought it was OK tbh. Nice bit about the club before the match and showed some affection at times the commentary. People think there is a conspiracy or something but whilst they could do a it more homework (Pelupessy up from lol) it seemed a fair balance to me. Plus nice to have Nigel Pearson punditting.

PEARSON Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 9 hours ago, Southowl said: How much of the game on tv did we miss. Always watching the sidelines (pep) or replays. The BBC is so crap at covering football. I said the exact same thing. The amount of times the camera just concentrated on the Man City bench whilst the game was being played, very frustrating. Also Martin Keown made it out as if Iorfa was a player who wasn’t getting a look in. He’s played the vast majority of our games! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mkowl Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I caught a bit of the pre match on 5 Live and they spent 10 minutes discussing Man City - like they haven't discussed them a 1000 times before - and never mentioned who they were even playing.

DIPPS_S.W.F.C Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Keown was shocking,how the hell does he get the job...."Pessy going to play uptop behind FF".....WTF..

They do us the 'honour' of gracing us with their presence, take the money and blag it with platitudes, guesswork and waffle. I mean that team line up at the start - having Pelupessy playing in the support forward role ! Martin Keown went up a little in my estimation last night. Ok, his commentary wasn't up to much, but he bigged Waddle up, talked about rarely winning at Hillsborough in his playing days, and had a little joke about the '93 cup finals. Came across as a far decent bloke than I've ever given him credit for in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be a sad day when we eventually move to, an albeit modern, soulless identikit stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Snooty Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Keown was desperate for us to go marauding forward so they could pick us off and the Beeb could have their vvwankfest. There was a moment when Iorfa went surging up pitch and we got picked off with men in front of the ball and I'd swear I heard Keown undoing his fly ready to fellate himself about how good City were. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) The opening video package was great as were the occasional drone shots of Hillsborough. The lack of research though is quite shocking. A co-commentator should know that Fletcher has just come back from an injury. If that was a game involving two Prem teams then there is no chance he wouldn't know that. I dont think Keown was wrong per se when he was critical about us not getting forward in the latter stages, but by doing so he came across as condescending. There was a bit where he was rambling on about how our players shouldn't be wanting signed shirts (from City), but trying to put in a performance. We are Sheffield Wednesday, a team in the Championship, not Matlock Town. Edited March 5, 2020 by SiJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OxonOwl Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Not read the whole thread but ... They showed the wrong badge Pessy up front Fletcher - scored 12 goals up to Christmas and only one since FFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
