According to ITN, 500,000 more people watched yesterday's MOTD than last week.
Everyone stops to watch a car crash.

I hope we are not fucking conservative today and go all out for a win. But of course we will have to Labour hard to do that and not be too liberal with giving the ball away.

I suspect that wouldn't have been the case if it was as simple as some other presenter standing in for Lineker. I haven't watched MoTD in years and I genuinely don't think I've ever watched it when Villa haven't played, but even I was tempted to watch last night, just to see how they managed to structure a programme with no presenters or summarisers.

In the end I watched Godfather part 3, instead.

I have to disagree, you should have watched Sully instead.

Will be interesting to see what they make of the 2 penalty shouts in our game. Oh.

What was the average watch time? I'd imagine it's the Tv equivalent of rubber necking a motor way accident.

Lee Hendry on SSN said it was soft.

Not sure what he said about the penalty decision.

He also said that we asked questions of West Ham. Which is nice.

BBC accidentally discover new improved match of the day format. No more need to fast forward anymore.

More people watched it live - as I did as opposed to Sky+ing it & flicking through it the following morning - as it was an historical artefact.  Downplayed nicely by the announcer, it was quite a surreal experience. 

I wonder what would have happened if we slap bang in the middle of a World Cup?

Some of those will be migrants: African car observers.
