Good. It was utterly shite since Sue Barker took over and was then passed to that Paddy guy. Shame

It was part of my Friday night routine, watch QoS, polish my boots and get my kit bag ready for the school game early Saturday morning.

I haven't watched it since the David Coleman days, apart from the odd episode.

It was a very old fashioned form of tv.

Watched this with my mum and dad when I was growing up. Carried on watching through adulthood, even when Matt Dawson was captain, but stopped the moment they gave McGuinness the gig. Going by the viewing figures I wasn't the only one.

I don't hate Sue, she does the tennis well.

The issue for me was that it went from a serious sports quiz to more of entertainment programme when she arrived.

And then turned to a steaming pile of shit when she was sacked. Mind you that's some record for Paddy McGuinness; successfully killing of two of the BBC's longest running shows within days of each other.

After it stopped being JP and McCoist as captains it started slowly going downhill and picked up pace after Tufnell took over (decent on radio but that's it).

As soon as they stopped picking captains on merit and entertainment value it went to shit.
