Its easy to criticise when you're not doing it yourself and watching/listening from afar but he's excellent at what he does and he's getting better and better. Deserves a full time role now. While we're on the subject of being really nice to each other, I thought the post-match you did with Dan towards the end of the season was excellent Omar. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and it made me look at some of your other stuff too. Good stuff happening in the Villa pod/video space these days IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 One of the things I like about big summer tournaments is the Beeb and ITV have their studios with famous landmarks in the background. I guess that will be missing this time round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 I'm guessing this tournament would never have a media village or temporary station or anything due to the different cities You know the one that the organisers provide and the BBC don't use because they build their own using the TV tax...

The_Rev Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 The BBC are based on Regent Street. I’m pretty sure they could do something with that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's brilliant and I like we can get some good punditry on Villa compared to the 3 minutes we get every 3 weeks on MOTD and the click bait stuff on Talksport. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Speaking of TV studios, I’m down in Wembley right now. It appears to be a media day but there is a pundit studio right on Wembley Way, almost at the bottom of the steps to enter the stadium. It looks pretty cool tbh. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 German TV has 1 commentator, then inside the stadium they have a female presenter with bastien schweinsteiger, that's it, that's the whole presentation Its good quality too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really... I can understand it but not talk it because the grammar is too hard We're all in lockdown so hard to judge, not been in the office for a month, or ventured in to town, did try and organise a bbq with the in laws for the 6pm saturday night Portugal game "stick the TV outside" and they thought I was crazy, pubs require a negative test and you're only allowed outside, will find out Sunday if it's up to much They have all the usual promo guff, pringles, coke, kellogs et al doing competitions and haribo have national team special sweets, not seen any flags, did see a guy in a Germany shirt earlier and a few Italians, loads of us foreigners in Bonn, can imagine the Turkish community were out somewhere tonight, cologne would have been fun Edit - germany play France 9pm here on Tuesday night, it's 32° in the day, if they don't hit the pubs for that then they never will Edit 2 - Ange changed the law yesterday and said that pubs can have the volume on for the games, when I watched the Austria match they had to mute the TV Edited June 11, 2021 by villa4europe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s an absolutely fantastic host, really good at keeping the atmosphere good and the show moving along. I’d like to think he picks up some more work on the back of this. He saw this and posted on his Instagram As someone else pointed out, that’ll teach me not catching up on threads Edited June 11, 2021 by mikeyp102 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
