  • Low grade football analysis

    Really sad to see personal agendas being played out on young footballers working hard for their team. Low grade gossip from once upon a time great players. Shame as I had a lot of respect for scholes. Won’t be tuning in any more.

  • Legends who think they still know the game.

    It’s obvious by recent comments that they just talk based on feel rather than actually watching and researching. Old man who was revered during their playing days (and nicky butt) want to use their class of 92 pedigree to make some money. Not worth the listen.
