60 of 125 · most liked firstGary Lineker on winning the National TV Award, "It's not lost on me why I might have won this award" "Aside from presenting Match of the Day.." "Also, I think it demonstrates that perhaps it's ok sometimes to use our platform to speak up on behalf of those who have no voice"

neutral · AI labelView post →The challenge for fascism is not when it is fighting for control but when it gains control: because then it has to create a cultural product that people are consistently happy with. And, well, just look at the Turning Point USA Super Bowl show or that Match of The Day they had without commentators.

neutral · AI labelView post →The best TV theme tunes are Doctor Who, Grandstand and Match of the Day.
positive · AI labelView post →What absolute bollocks. "Many fans had watched Premier League goals and action before Match of the Day is broadcast." Maybe many of them do, but not all, and that is the main point of the fucking show. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...
neutral · AI labelView post →BBC News reporting that Gary Lineker, its highest paying presenter, is to step down from Match of the Day at the end of the season.
neutral · AI labelView post →The first edition of Match of the Day was broadcast on this day in 1964 at 6.30 pm on BBC2.
neutral · AI labelView post →You can’t have the whole set just demonstrate over and over that the whole thing is a dumb dog and pony show with no meaningful standards or rules, and that it’s instead Match Of The Day, except winners are chosen by which won the commentary team likes best that year, and retain much optimism.
neutral · AI labelView post →This week in 1989, Match Of The Day celebrated its 25th birthday with a special show looking back over the years. During the broadcast, Barry Davies asked Jimmy Hill about the impact that television has had on football. As usual, Hill was on the money.
neutral · AI labelView post →Just watched Match of the Day #MOTD, Gary Linekar sacrificed for being a decent human being.
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't understand why Match Of The Day 2 isn't just called Match Of The Day when there's no substantive difference between the two shows. They both show highlights from that day's Premiership games, both have one presenter and two pundits. COME ON PEOPLE HELP ME UNDERSTAND.

neutral · AI labelView post →Am I alone in deciding Today no longer worth listening to, and News10, Newsnight, Panorama, Sunday morning politics show, and Match of the Day not worth watching. If you don't like game/panel shows, ancient soaps, reality or Traitors that leaves World Service. Excellent. But worth license fee?
negative · AI labelView post →There’s this new show on Saturday night’s called Match of the Day. Other people seem to like it so might give it a watch. #EFC #UTFT
neutral · AI labelView post →Just discovered bbc still show that Match of the Day programme on Saturday evenings 🤔
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching an episode of Dad's favourite TV show: QI (Well, it was either that or Match Of The Day). I swear, Rosie Jones gets funnier with every appearance on this show.
neutral · AI labelView post →I haven't watched the Premier League or Match of the Day for five years. If Man City are allowed to get off with this then I will care even less. A beautiful game ... one which I cared about deeply as a kid when my plucky Oxford United rose to win the Milk Cup ... wrecked by money.
negative · AI labelView post →Got to say the Match of the Day analysis was shambolic yesterday too. It's starting to feel like Arsenal are unknowingly part of some Truman-Show-like experiment to see how far they can be victimised before breaking.
negative · AI labelView post →I’ve not watched Match Of The Day in so long man! Can we just win a match so I can watch my favourite show again please?😂
neutral · AI labelView post →Haven’t looked at the Premier League table this season. Every time they show it on Match of the Day, I press the standby button faster than INEOS can make another monumental fuck-up.
neutral · AI labelView post →So the BBC chairman has seemingly decreed that Match Of the Day should show less highlights and more analysis. On what basis is not clear. Interesting that a man who, to put it mildly, has a lot on his plate should concern himself with the format/content of a late night football show
neutral · AI labelView post →Kinda disappointed that the #Apple #MLS show (Wrap-Up) that’s THE highlights show has like 2-3 clips from each game besides the teams they want to market more. I would love something more like Match of the Day that goes in depth. Yes, it would be long. Yes, sickos will find time.

neutral · AI labelView post →13 August 2016 Match of the Day began its new series on BBC One. Gary Lineker hosted the show in his underpants, having pledged to do so if Leicester City won the Premier League, which they did the previous season.
neutral · AI labelView post →The BBC should counter claim for $11bn because Trump said the BBC was 100% fake news. All they have to do to disprove this is cite programmes like Blue Peter, Strictly, Match Of The Day etc to show Trump doesn't know what he is talking about.
neutral · AI labelView post →I've been a fan of Gary Lineker from the day he started hosting Match of the Day (football show) back when I was 11, which he presented for 25 years. Now I had the pleasure watching him live & can say he said my name out loud while answering the Q&A portion of the show. Absolutely buzzing! ❤️⚽️

neutral · AI labelView post →The BBC surely can’t be happy with Sky having a one-hour show at 7.30pm in which Dave Jones and Jamie Carragher react to and analyse Sunday’s Premier League games. It’s Match of the Day three hours before Match of the Day! Should be asking for a portion of their broadcast deal to be refunded.
neutral · AI labelView post →For almost as long as I’ve watched football, Match of the Day with Gary Lineker has been a constant. A fitting farewell to a broadcasting great on tonight’s show. Saturday nights won’t quite be the same again. #MotD

negative · AI labelView post →Sad to hear Esther Rantzen has died. "That's Life" was a huge part of my childhood - watching that while waiting for Match of the Day to come on. I got a letter from her after I sent in an "Odd Ode" to Cyril Fletcher when I was about 10. I was ever so pleased. Though Cyril never read it out.
