I wish I had so little going on in my life that I could get this worked up about a programme starting a few minutes late!

Well, you've apparently got so little in your life that you compain about that on a messageboard, which takes a very similar amount of effort. If you believe rubbish like that.

Oh well, the gang above don't agree, therefore I'm a moaning RL fan. Far from it actually, just have an aversion to poor service.

You carry being wet saps and I'll feel happily free to complain when the company taking my money each month can't keep to its own schedules week after week after week. And judging from the social media reaction last night from other people left wondering what was happening, I'm not the only one.

I think this last episode was one which I rather enjoyed. It had nothing to do with the schedule as I record as many of them as I can as I have now learned from the last couple of years if you record it once you will have live tiddly winks on or something. But the actual sport, normally they focus on the two matches that were broadcasted and as they were both rather damp squid affairs and some shocks it was a rather pleasant programme.

Admittidly the bit where they show the score first is odd but at the same time Amost fans will know the scores. As the majority of matches were played on the Friday and if London and Cats are at home then normally comes to Sunday and the scores would have been out for at least 24 hours prior to the programme starting (on time or late).

I was reading John Motson autobiography and in the old days it said that at times the commentary was put on after a match had been played. Couldn't Sky do this? Just have someone voices over the tape as if they were there, even if it is just for the tries. It would probably give the viewer a better stor/idea of how the match went instead of Bill Arthur and Co reguritatig the same stuff for the most part.

Ray French's commentararies after the match were always a joy! he seemed to know every move before it came!

My virgin box records everytime slft is (supposedly) aired which is a good job as it can take a few attempts to find a recording that has the full programme. Only this morning i decided to watch Backchat and was greeted with sky poker, went to the second recording to find it was pool. fingers crossed that the recording this afternoon is the actual programme. Crap service.

I can understand the complaints, I mean it's on at a late enough time as it is and as I'm using Sky Go at Uni, I don't have the option to record it.

If it's been delayed then I just go to sleep and just wait to watch Super League show either on iPlayer or Tuesday lunch time (love that time btw! Fits nicely into my schedule )

I really don't see the big issue tbh, but I can understand why people may be a bit miffed.

Only 10 minutes late today

this annoys me so much! they should introduce the game (maybe a few stats about previous meetings, form and the like) then it should go to someone other than the studio guests commentating over the games (even if it is not live from the ground comms) because its annoying watching the highlights and listening to them talk about things that are sometimes completely different! After listening to the coaches views they should then go and ask the studio guess there thoughts on the game!

Motd has a winning formula, just copy it and it will be sorted!

i SKY+ it and watch it later so i can fast forward when Terry O Connor starts talking.

delayed again,suprised its not at the top of the VT lol

Good win for Nadal there.

This program is horrible, it's so awkard listening to them rambling directionlessly over the highlights with Bill Arthur clearly reading from a script and paying no attention to what either of the pundits are saying. I didn't think it was possible for a highlights show to be this bad.

You want to take that up with Virgin mate. They use a stupid string matching algorithm to decide what to record on their standard digibox. A decent service would send a program starting and program ending signal and the actual time and channel of broadcast wouldn't matter at all.

A VCR from 1980 with the option of recording an extra hour over the end provides a better service.

It's always repeated at 6pm on Monday.
