The Master Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Ahhh the Dream, to be honest I don't really think Sportscene has much of a place on a Saturday night anymore, I'm fine with it being on a Sunday although I do believe we should have an 80 minute show from 7pm The reason for my logic is because more often than not the weekends biggest game(s) are held on a Sunday for TV (or Europa League clubs) so the Saturday slot would miss those games which in turn could also effect the viewership, a Sunday slot eradicates that problem. Saturday doesn't preclude Sunday. Have both, like in England. After the highlights of any Sunday game, the Saturday highlights can be shown again with the daft features we currently get for main highlights, e.g. the seasonal theming, Connie McLaughlin chatting to the tea lady etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Van Dyke Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 If only this was genuine !! Wishing it was, main points I'd make are: (1) - keep it simple... people get legitimately annoyed by the hapless attempts at being innovative and edgy Of course you have to realise that this forum is populated by the hardcore football fans in this country, we have to appeal to a much larger adience of people who may not go to the football every week. We realised maybe we made it too gimiky one week so we are trying to find a happy medium. Just highlights would not work. (2) - keep it fair... people get legitimately aggrieved about the lack of time given to some clubs, and the amount of talk devoted to others A fair point, but then of course we are going to talk about a team more if they are involved in a 5-4 compared to a 1-0. And of course the teams with a larger attendance base is one we have to cover more (slightly) to be fair to the population (3) - maximise the footage, minimise the chat Yes definitely something we have taken on board, we appreciated the feedback regarding this (4) - give us pundits who offer genuine opinions, insight and analysis (not just cagey generalities, clichés and platitudes) Examples please? More ex-footballers? because a team has more fans they deserve more air time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 because a team has more fans they deserve more air time? It's an utterly ridiculous assertion. Again, drawing parallels with MOTD, if Man Utd are involved in a drab, boring 0-0 draw and all other games have goals, the game is given as much attention as any other drab boring 0-0 draw - on last and a cursory discussion. Only in Scotland is it seen as necessary to devote time proportionate to the number of fans. Even when one of the clubs involved is in what until 2012 was "the doldrums". Spending time last week talking about speculation that there might perhaps be potential interest from England in the The Rangers manager was indefensible, especially when the club wasn't even playing.

Rinky Dink Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Jonathans' job is currently non negotiable. We may consider a change at the end of the 15-16 season. In what world would an intern discuss someone's employment on a public forum....... Total rasper. Liked the idea of sportscene seeking the views of the fans but this clearly isn't it.......

DA Baracus Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Tell Jonathan Sutherland the following; - Rangers died. Get it roond ye. - He is a swivel eyed f**k with an Iron Age serf's accent and looks like a water damaged Thunderbirds puppet. - His commentary is crap. He sounds like a village dunce who just scraped in to a second rate media course at a local polytechnic due to someone dropping out at the last minute - Rangers died. Sevco. Sevco. SEVCO Tell Pat Bonner the following; - Celtic are a hideous club. He doesn't have to say their full name all the time - He looks like an alcoholic Thundercat who is sleeping rough and probably smells of urine - He has the footballing insights of a juvenile foal - His jumpers are shit Tell Scott McDonald the following; - Get a fucking opinion you fence sitting c**t - Only wankers with questionable morals play for Celtic - He looks like a first draft drawing of a Disney Prince in one of the shitter Disney films Tell Steven Thompson the following; - Don't throw objects with a sharp end - Say something meaningful for once or don't bother coming in - I'll give you £100 if you physically assault Jonathan Sutherland - Rangers died Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
