MOTD is a waste of time and generally insulting to us.

Last night was the final straw for me , fuck MOTD , Shearer reluctantly spat a dozen word into the mic to fulfill his conractial obligation. HTF was Forest's draw , deemedc more important than our game. Never again for . Not watched it since we were relegated from Prem , then watched us get completely ignored after dominating v Man utd and then last night. That prgram is a pension fund for retired players , fuck em.

Sky are shite at these after match scenes
The pitch cameras get too close
A wider angle view from the stands is better to capture the overall scene

I’ve been saying that for years.
The money shot is the contrast between players falling to the floor in despair and the victors celebrating (obviously mainly in a cup final)
But they choose the “reality tv” nonsense of a close up of the manager’s face time after time. Annoying!

Not a cat in hell's chance of anything but the merest mention of us before they'll start talking about how things went wrong for the visitors this season from Look North Korea.

They'll be doing mental gymnastics trying to big up the mags while also not praising us. Nailed on.
 
To be honest I don’t think MOTD’s problem is an anti Sunderland bias. It’s more a pro-big club bias (with the Mags thrown in?) and a massive lack of seriousness in favour of trite banality and sentimentalism.

There was obviously a lot of games on yesterday so it’s a lot to squeeze in. But they did a terrible job of it.
There was no interest in the actual football that was played, just broad homilies about Arsenal, Pep, Salah, Fernandes etc.

In short, it’s not a great product and I wish I’d gone to bed an hour earlier!

It was boring which it never should be. The two pundits seemed devoid of energy.
