They finally get down to league two, and as there have been a lot of games recently they are doing a genral "movers" and "fakers" review of the midlands sides Christmas games. Firstly they Show Northamptons games and Lincolns games, then they show Mansfields. For the fakers they show Kidderminster. Now for the life of me I'm sitting there wondering why the **** STFC havent been shown??? The only thing i can think being is the "meeting" at utoxeter between some of fellow friends and Newbon. Is it possible? Are we being vindictively cut out??? Has anyone written in and complained? If so what responses did you get? Is there anything we can do, other than burn down central tv offices/studios, torture gary newbon and email Central??? I'm fecking fuming again

Of course Newbon hates us but this is insanity, if indeed we have been cut as a result of his bitterness then it's truly appalling. I don't care if he doesn't like us but to use what should be a respectable highlights show simply as a tool in his vindictive campaign against us is way too far. And if it in fact isn't his fault then shame on ITV instead, quite how our last few games can be deemed not worthy of coverage is far beyond my comprehension!!

as I said Newbon does actually hate us, he always has
way way before Gaz called hima , even back in the days when Jamo was a young man and PILCH could run, he has always hated us and always will
It is one fo those perverse things about football, like Newcastle fans booing Ginola and Darren currie playing for Ipswich
Don't fight it, it is our destiny
I consider it an honour to be disliked by such an ignorant, loathesome low life

Totally agree Dave and it isn't him hating us that annoys me, I find that whole situation pretty hilarious to be honest. But when it then escalates onto us being omitted from a supposedly comprehensive local round up, denying those who couldn't make the game a chance to view the action, then it starts to grate.

You have a point dave I'm aware he doesnt like us, I dread to think what harm I'd cause him if I happened to "bump" into him.... *punching smiley* I've watched central soccer night now 5/6 times (normally when I'm back from uni) and we've been cut off at least 4 times, and on another occassion had the p**s completely ripped out of us by a gingerhaired bint who knows feck all bout football, Carlton Palmer and Gary newbon. What sort of local coverage is that??? Is Boston actually in the Midlands??? What about Swindon???-their covered by the highlights program in Reading. Hell they've even shown MK Dons!!!!

What about Swindon???-their covered by the highlights program in Reading. I lived in Swindon during the mid 80's. We were in Division 2 while they were in Division 4. Swindon always got more coverage than us despite half of Swindon not even being able to receive Central TV.

Doesn't surprise me. I've watched it 4 times and we were only on twice. Wrote a stack of emails to Central only to be told that some highlights are not available to them although Whits has confirmed that they get sent all home game material. It is a dire excuse for a football show. God bless Football League review and Sky Sports News

I would think it is retribution for the Uttoxeter racecourse incident, he a lot of flak that day Perhaps he has read the fanzine or is sulking that his mate Carlton did not get the job at the Meadow.

I had it on for the first time in ages last night and we all say it but god its bad - they have the rights to all the goals in the leage but cut so many.
Even in League one, why not when you have a crimbo golas show make it a bit longer and show ALL the action from the game
Its not like Newbonds go anything else to do!!!
I think that no mantter what our standing at Central News has fallen further again and - if it wa not for the BBC (and there news reports and the odd bit when we have importnat games coming up) and Sky we would never grace the face of TV!

It's a rubbish show.
The only thing I can imagine which stops them from showing all the goals is that they have to pay for each clip they use - is this the case? whits?

, and on another occassion had the p**s completely ripped out of us by a gingerhaired bint who knows feck all bout football Still like to give her one mind! It is the worst football programme I have ever seen! Awful-they may as well rename it the 'wolves show with gary newbon'. After the play-off game they put Wolves before us and gave them a 5 minutes slot, Town were crammed in at the end and they even got half the names wrong...remember that penalty LUKE SEDGEMORE scored! An awful show hosted by a man who knows nothing about football and the people who watch it!

What a p**s poor excuse for a football show. If only I was chairman at the Meadow because any time Central were to come sniffing round (sackings, new appointments, big cup games, promotion etc) I would tell them to **** off.

ITV/Carlton have no excuses whatsoever NOT to show town as they are the only camera crew that turn up week in week out, Sky dont always turn up but when they dont they buy the footage off Carlton and show it a few hours later on Sky Sports News (Carlton have a courier who arrives ten mins before the end and races back to Birmingham HQ with the tapes!!!! For God Sake, Carlton have the flippin' master copies so they cant have any reason not to show the goals other than: 1. They dont want to/cant be bothered with us! 2. Gary Newbon

Has anyone mailed or written to Central TV to complain??? If you read this board on a regular basis you will know the answer to that, loads of people loads of times. Me personally, six emails to the Head of Sport.
