Sh1t now. Not funny, not entertaining. The teleprinter had more charisma. What are they doing? Making it crapper until Alex Scott saves it?

It’s not been the same since they got rid of Le Tiss, Thompson and Champagne Charlie and now Jeff has gone it’s rubbish. Obviously it’s still handy and serves a purpose for what it is, the goals and results, but you’re right ASCPFC, the humour and entertainment has gone

No offence guys, but, the longer you subscribe the more it will be.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

I've never watched it, so don't blame me!
Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes)

At least there's ref watch on a Monday, that totally impartially tells us why Man U definitely should have had a penalty - and we definitely shouldn't have. Why bother with Dermot Gallagher? Isn't it easier to just say there's no discussion required - the refs were entirely right?

It’s still handy to follow the results, but the point is it’s lost it’s charm, humour and entertainment value

Sky have gone overboard with this woke nonsense.
Maybe I am old fashioned, but men’s football should have men presenters and pundits. Women’s football should have Women doing the same.
Soccer Saturday has been sanitised, all those who had an opinion or character have been sacked.

SSN used to be free to air. The only things worth watching was the Saturday afternoon show with Geoff and Transfer deadline day twice a year.
Sky used it to advertise their premium channels which was fair enough. I stopped watching when they decided that SSN was itself a premium channel, you must be joking.
One more point

Trouble is that went down hill years ago as well, the first few years with Lovejoy and Helen were very good, but I’ve tried to watch it many a time in recent years for old times sake before they scrapped it and it was just painful to watch and long over due scrapping
