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

Where did you hear that?

If that's true, maybe it's because of their hysterical reaction to the events at the QF.  Fair play, if so.

BBC ignores a good news story from Birmingham shock. If we set off a flare or something it'll be all over the news 'til Tuesday.

Good grief what a load of Faragabollocks*.





* Bizarre paranoia induced ramblings.
Yeah! - actually your right, the entire programme was about the Villa and we imagined the whole thing.

I like the BBC for everything outside of the football department.

Their football coverage is garbage, worse in my opinion than most tabloids. They have the worst journalists and pundits of any major source.

I am pleased to see other Villa fans feel the same way. Sometimes it takes the drip drip drip of incompetent club coverage (Pat Murphy in our case) or a single event such as  the FA Cup "dark scenes" scandal (for them, not us) but once you see it, you resent it. I know I do.

The BBC has awful , lazy, football coverage I assume simply because nobody gets fired for the terrible work they do.

Maybe Sir Alex was right when he stiffed them for a decade or so.

I agree with much of what you say but let's be careful: ITV's football coverage is absolute gash. The ITV commentators are friggin' awful.

Have a watch of some of their classic fa cup semi finals, currently showing on the BBC website. Compare the quality commentary from the like of Davies and Motson, compared to the current crop, like three chinned know it all Jonathan Pearce and whatever his name is, mumbling along at the semi final today.

Oh true, but I regard ITV as simple minded but enthusiastic idiots. The BBC I regard as lazy incompetents.

A lot of BBC radio is very good. TMS comes to mind.

Agree on TSM but the football on Five Live is terrible.
