Keir i bet you whinged when the automobile was invented too, good job charities wont be depending on you for a donation.
In the next 10 years there will be massive changes in football, so you better get used to it or go back to listening to the radio.

It’s Mr Keir.

Hey, I’m all for good intentions and actually think the premise of three ex pros, three celeb fans, and three ordinary punters is actually quite good.

What I’m fearful of is that this is what happens when tv execs are allowed a totally free reign in football.

Thankfully, and I’m sure I never thought I’d say this, we currently have FIFA, UEFA, the FA and the Premier League to ensure that our precious game is not mucked about with too much. The TV show just shows what could happen if the TV guys were to get everything their own way.

Like it or loath it, TV has changed football, and will continue to do so. 3pm Saturday was once sacred, but no longer. The players once had much in common with those in the stands, but no longer.

What All Stars showed me was an insight into some visionary utopian dream of a TV exec. It might not work out that way in the end, but you can bet your bottom dollar that football would evolve into something like it were they all to get their own way.

And the production values still stink. I sincerely doubt the guy in the control room calling the shots had ever produced a football match of any description before this series.

Right, I’m off to search the internet for a supply of big foam hands and chilli dogs. Judging by the responses from some of you, I’d make a killing selling them outside the ground. I might even through in some face paint and jester hats. Perhaps I can find out where you all park for your tailgate bar-be-ques beforehand.

What a laugh, even the misses enjoyed it. As for the Dyer interview when he was in the cooler, TV gold!

to mr/mrs keir

its a charity event and if u didnt like it turn it over, but how can u not wanna see the likes of cottee, mcavennie and moncs playin alongside the likes of danny dyer and co???

well i thought it was a good old night and all them hammers there did too so mr/mrs keir this aint the future of football its just a event to raise money for charitys and for most people to watch there old heros still play so serious if u really dont like it just use ur control and turn on eastenders or emmerdale if thats more ur thing.

fully understand keir where your coming from . ian wright should stear well clear of presenting anything on tv.hes a clown and has no idea what hes harping on about.
as for the positives i thaught the idea was good,however the gimmicks went usa style and totaly turned the show in to throw up !
as for helen(oh my, i wish !) chamberlin she will do anything for a bit of cash.

any news on parker starting tomorrow night?
