Away win at Chelsea, still 'Chappers' presenting instead of Lineker, a decent bottle of red to drink, I'll definitely be watching it tonight.

I save it 'till Sunday morning.

Mainly because I can't stay awake on a Saturday night.

Same here usually. I’m normally the only person up so get to watch it in peace with a cup of tea. Might try to stay awake tonight though.

Decent set of other games as well.

Out of which I take no joy whatsoever if we've lost but become fascinating after a result like tonight's.

Anyway back to Frank...Myyyyyyy kind of town!

MOTD on iplayer on a Sunday morning with a cup of tea is the way to go. You can fast-forward the amazing 'analysis' as well.

I'm also in the peace/quiet/tea camp. I'm going to watch it primarily so I can see who's playing like what at the bottom.

Away win at Chelsea, still 'Chappers' presenting instead of Lineker, a decent bottle of red to drink, I'll definitely be watching it tonight.

I'm not mad about Chapman, he tends to dwell on one tactical point that he has picked-up on and make the ex-pros talk about it, even if they'd rather focus on something else. And he always has to have the last word trying to be a smart-arse when the pundits are gently ribbing him. Give me Lineker and his awful/inspired puns although I don't think he's as good at listening to the punditas as Chapman is. In short, the Beeb don't have a top football anchorman between them.

The woman on BT Sport does a brilliant job when you consider that Gobby Savage and Sutton are there to take the piss out of each other and Sidwell keeps waving his pen and talking gobbledygook.

Does he need to have said anything?

Although I'm guessing it was him stating some managers are better suited for the big clubs, when the main narrative was 20 players bought in with no rhyme or reason or what was actually needed for the team.

Is that a particularly controversial opinion?

Gabby Logan is one of the best sports presenters at the BBC and would be good on MOTD, yet seems to have been allocated to rugby despite her family background with football.
