After the promise of an in depth , behind the scenes look at Yeovil Town I thought I'd give Soccer Night another chance. Not surprisingly the whole programme was, once again, absolute rubbish and very tacky. It seems to get worse every time I watch. The presenters are unprofessional, not funny and very annoying. Then there was the girl who won the competition to represent YTFC on the programme. It looked to me like she'd never been to Huish Park before in her life and she won't do us any favours if she wins the presenting job. Perhaps we should petition HTV to get this rubbish off our screens and replace it with a proper football programme.

With West Soccer Night you either love it or you hate it and it's the same with Pitman.

It's the same as everything that ITV produces.

ITV seems to represent cheap sets, tacky one liners, bad continuity, poor quality in general. I very rarely watch anything on ITV, and only watched last night because I read on here it was on.

I doubt many people watched, but I did also feel it did Huish Park no favours.

After coming home from Skittles, I watched 2 versions - can't remeber which is which as A. I watched 2 different ones B. I'd had a drink :P

1 of them had some bloke in a stand trying to be funny
1 of them showed some football and was quite good.

For some reason I get a different version on sky to what I do on normal TV - I'm guessing the one I get on normal TV was the Jed Pitman trying to be funny one ?

It depends on where you are. There's either the ITV West or South West one.

Sky select one or the other depending on your postcode, and terrestrial depends on which way your aerial's pointing. And I think the ITV West one's on at 11, but all the other regions are on at 11:30.

and you can add channels if you wish to watch the other.

On my TV ITV channel I get the Pitman version, when I watch/record via. my VCR I get the other version, I tend not to watch either but found the southwest one almost as annoying and unfunny. :roll:

yes, this is coming from a 15 yr old, if it doesn't make me laugh then......?

oh dear :wink:

This week's edition the girl from City's last line was something like "Where can I get some cider?" and she had a bemused expression on her face and I just thought "WTF?". I think ITV West can do better, I'd like to see some of the shots that we could have put away instead of seeing just the goals if any. I think ITV West should do a feature match like MOTD or the Championship, at least if that happens we get a better chance of getting some decent highlights compared to Westcountry which starts with Plymouth.

I suppose Yeovil being covered by two regions we've got some choice. I know that Soccer Night is shown at 11 on West, Westcountry, Central and Yorkshire.

Hate it. Had not seen the show for some time then I caught it a few weeks ago. Instead of being the good old little football highlight show it used to be it had been transformed into a magazine television show with bimbos doing some totty of the week compo. What a load of crap. If I want that sort of thing I'd rather just buy a playboy mag.
