Crickets still on ffs.

Haha you're joking? That ****ty game between Sussex and Surrey? Oh dear.

I saw the programme earlier and, as much as I hate Keys, Gray and Redknapp, I actually quite enjoyed it - despite Redknapp spluttering and stumbling through the show, as usual.

Gordon Burns gets mobbed CLICKY

He better make sure he's still got his waller after that

[Helios Creed]

Boycott ITV.. the ****ers start their programme at 7.30 and then fit in 2 ad breaks before kick-off. Where's the fekkin build up?
I was going try to organise action on earlier legs so all LFC fans switched off during the ads in protest, but then forgot about it.. Thought if they couldn't get ads, they'd let BBC have it, who at least give it more respect than fekkin Emmerdale.

ITV CL coverage - better than teletext, just.

In tonight's local news broadcast, they cut from a pre-recorded report inside the stadium by saying "let's go live now to Gordon, who's with the fans where all the action is..." - and they cut to Gordon, who was standing with Tony Livesey, on their own. "Our plans have changed since that report earlier, er, Gordon tried to get amongst the fans but her, er, got attacked. In a nice way."



Also, speaking of LFC stuff on telly, did anyone see this week's Chelsea sketch on the Paul Whitehouse/Harry Enfield programme? I stuck the telly on in bed for five minutes last night, and just caught it. It went something like this:

Abramovich (Whitehouse) sitting in his office with some Russian heavies.

Roman: "I want some glory. I want to buy Liverpool."

Henchman: "What?!"

Roman: "I am the greatest billionaire in the world, I want to buy their glorious history. I can buy anything I like MUHAHAHAHA...I AM GOING TO BUY LIVERPOOL'S GLORIOUS HISTORY!"

Cuts to a live game between Chelsea and Liverpool...

Commentator: "And welcome to Stamford Bridge where five-times champions of Europe Chelsea entertain Liverpool, who have won absolutely nothing whatsoever"

Surely they'll have build up from half six/seven on either ITV2 or ITV4?

[Helios Creed]

Half-hearted. If you pay all that for the game, you cancel ****ing Emmerdale and do it justice. Even the beeb would start the porgarmme at 7. Idiots.

Yep, build-up is on itv4.

[Helios Creed]

I feel very strongly about this AND CANNOT BACKDOWN! *******S!

[Shaggy]

Oh aye I totally agree. They're absolute amateurs. 15 minutes "build up" punctuated, as you say, by two ****ing commercial breaks. The first one normally happens at 7.32! They're jokers.

[Helios Creed]

ITV ****ING 4! THAT IS AN INSULT TO OUR TEAM AND THE COMPETITION AS A WHOLE! CANCEL ****ING EMMERDALE FOR ONCE, IT WON'T KILL THE ZOMBIES THAT WATCH IT, THEY'LL JUST GO BACK INTO THEIR COMAS. IT'S THE ****ING CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL!

[Helios Creed]

Thank you.

Breeeathe.....

Oh yeah, we got the kittens yesterday! Not really helping me relax...

ITV are starting their CL Final coverage at 7 on ITV1 tomorrow .

I shan't be watching it anyway, it'll be ****. I usually don't bother with before/half time/full time bollocks anymore.
