Futtocks Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Jiffy hasn't been as downbeat in recent seasons as in the past, where he described pretty much everything as either "poor" or "simple".

Oh and to summarise…Garry Schofield. As this whole thread suggests there is a wide variety of opinion, personally I just think we need something fresh. What Channel 4 do, they normally do well IMHO, so will be interesting to see which direction they head….as long as it’s not Garry Schofield I find Mark Wilson very good at describing action on the pitch and projecting an air of excitement about the game. However, this is on radio (Talksport) which is different to TV and he also seems fairly busy and in demand for other sports on the channel (football, darts, boxing?). Would he be available for 10 games during the season? Kyle Amor was also excellent on the few occasions I've heard him, but similar questions on availability and transfer to TV.

The last thing Rugby League needs is Neville Smith involved; as director, in terms of actual game coverage, he’s not had an original idea in over twenty years. This would be an absolute disaster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was going to ask this same question. It’s a shame that we’ve not seen a bit more plugging from C4, but then they’ve not had much time to prepare. Hopefully they’ll come into it with a totally fresh approach. “There is perhaps no better a demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world.” Carl Sagan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I want them to reach out to a new and younger audience than more of the same old presentation that has failed to reach out to that very same demographic! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris22 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 There has been a TV advert, which is decent.
