Wouldn't it be 'nice' if the BBC was a subscription service rather than licence fee!
no!, it would be nice if the pricks were taken off air completely.

what real world though? The real world has us being completely gash for ages to the point of being irrelevant. I know what your probably saying in that it should be more balanced but in the real world nothing is balanced.

Apparently the BBC requested interviews with Villa this week but we turned them down.

No issue with that. Sherwood likely wanted to focus on the task ahead than spending a couple of hours doing interviews only for it to be cut to 5 minutes to accommodate more time for the Gerrard love in.

Agreed. I couldn't give a damn about the BBC or anyone ignoring us anyway, it all comes across as a bit small time in my opinion.
They'll be fighting to get our attention when we win the Cup though.

Can't agree with that. The BBC is absolutely brilliant.

I don't see how you correlate a poor editorial decision with the way the BBC is funded. This sort of skewed coverage happens in the commercial sector as well.

Despite the fact that we turned down interviews, a feature could still have been put together using a bit of imagination. The show just seemed terribly unbalanced with features on 3 of the 4 semi-finalists.

Abolition of the licence fee would only exacerbate the lack of balance in football coverage with viewing figures and advertising revenue holding sway.

Quite. There are more important things in the world to concern yourself with.

I suppose it could put more pressure on Liverpool to deliver.

I'm sorry but I just don't buy this. We're irrelevant in the league but we're in the semi final of the FA Cup. When they're doing a piece on the semi final of the FA Cup it shouldn't be too much to ask that we aren't totally ignored. Reading are more irrelevant than us but even they get a mention!

There was some shit piece on their shit website the other day about how the underdogs Villa and Reading actually stood a chance of getting to the final, as it's happened a few times in the past.  Never read so much patronising bollocks in all my life.
