The Match

[superkingdave]

Anyone watching it?

For you non-english, its a bunch of C list Celebs (people like Darren Campbell, Harvey from So Solid Crew, Lee from steps)who think they are good at football, coached by Graham Taylor, playing against a 'Legends' side (with people like Beardsley, Ian Wright, Gary Pallister, Bryan Robson, Chris Waddle, Gascoigne Grobellar Etc.) at St James Park

Oh and Alec Stewart is playing for the Celeb side

Seems like the biggest non-event rubbish BSkyB have ever churned out.. I hope it flops like mad

Its actually quite entertaining, i didnt watch the stuff that was on all week but the actual match is quite good, they even have Andy Gray commentating - the Legends are 1-0 through Pallister, but Darren Campbell hit the bar. Theres about 50,000 in St James Park

Sheesh, 50 000?. The football is quite good then..

TBH anything that needed a week or so of crappycringeworthy pre match ********e wasn't worth watching, they could have just shown 90 minutes of good football?! Oh sorry its reality TV overkill!

Unlucky celebs. Why did McCoist have to go and score that winner?

I wanted penalties!

 

[chris.hinton]

Me too.... it was a good game the Celebs where well drilled by Graham Taylor. the best Celebs where Ralf Little (Royle Family) Jonathon Wilkes ( Robbie williams best mate) Alec Stewart and Darren Campbell

Shame that Bosnich went of for the celebs
