Got to love the cheap nature of 2nd tier TV coverage!
SD Picture quality No commentator for first 10 mins of match When he did turn up he sounded like a newsreader (and had no co-commentator) One camera Situated in the car park No replays Didn't work for first 5 mins of 2nd half so missed the only goal!
Citeh fans wouldn't put up with this ffs!

I did think, as I was watching, that I’ve been to hundreds of games and happily watched without commentary or replays. Then that thought was ruined as some uninterested droning rambled on and on. I would have like to have seen a reply of the goal though.

At least you didn’t have the “Drew Peacock” from Pompey shout out that they broadcast on Saints Play!

Have grown to quite enjoy Saints Play experience. They've fixed the gremlins of the first few matches and quality is now reliable. For the away fixtures up north we get Franny on comms who is a good listen.

Franny is Mr Southampton.
If he is not a Freeman of the City by now that is criminal.

The only issue I have with it is losing connection but I think that’s because I’m watching on internet browser via Xbox and my WiFi is crap (and getting crapper - Sonos keeps cutting out too) so I can’t blame Saints Player for that.

Saints Play is ok. I would like some build up and half time chat. Maybe they could switch over to Solent at those times. It feels a bit wham bam thank you ma'am.

Drew Peacock of Portsmouth is an ardent fan of Saints Play. I also wish they wouldn’t keep on doing shout outs to braggers watching from Barbados, Florida etc. when it’s damp, cold and dark in Frankfurt and I’m watching on my sofa from under a blanket. Dean Hammond is a bit too nice for my liking too. Not everyone can be a brilliant player, except in Deansneyland it seems. Maybe I’m turning into too much of a negative Nelly in my old age. When did Saints ever do anything the easy way?

When I was a kid I knew a Drew Peacock... he sure copped some flak in the playground I don't mind the SP coverage when I can get it, it beats what we're used to from the PL where Saints might as well not have been playing according to most commentators.

I saw the closing stages of Watford v Ipswich last night. Fecking Wesley Hoedt still haunting Saints: he miscontrolled the ball on the edge of his own box, got tackled and Ipswich scored their winner. My aim of getting 3 more points than Ipswich this month is not looking good. They have 6 out of 6, we've got 1 out of 3 so far.
On the positive side, when that game finished I turned over to see the end of Sunderland v Leeds, Sunderland clung on to take a 1-0 win which means we can go level with Leeds with a win tonight. Goal difference is our enemy this season, but we can start chipping away gradually.
