    Just wondering. Does anybody watch it?. I mean actually watch it.
    I find myself sometimes:
    Recording it and just watch bit about Barnsley
    Occasionally watch all of championship and bin the rest
    Every couple of months or so will watch the lower leagues, just to keep up to date (more likely to do this as we get to business end of season).
    Don't mind Colin Murray but find some of the co-commentators a bit MEH, apart from Holloway.
    What does everybody do?

    I record the full programme and watch our bit and any subsequent comments on the Reds. Then watch all the goal highlights and skip through all the other waffle. It takes 30-40 minutes.

    I don't really know why I watch our bit because I have seen it before on Ifollow.

    Yes. I’d rather watch that, than motd. I don’t mind the presenter and pundits in general.

    If Barnsley win I watch the whole Championship. If they lose I never watch it.

    I record it and watch the championship. Next season I might watch L1 to see how the Wendies are doing....

    I always record it and watch it a bit later - only watch the championship and skip over the adverts and most of the punditry apart from the bit about us - probably spend about 30 minutes watching. Rarely bother with L1 and never L2

    I haven't watched it at all, hardly ever watched the itv version before it either.

    Football outside of barnsley really is boring to me. I love watching our games but have no interest in the rest of it anymore. Gone are the days of exciting matches and players running at defenders, down the wings and putting an inch perfect cross in, instead they've been replaced with defenders passing it amongst each other and 89 minutes waiting for the exact right moment to make a pass.

    I watch it up to Barnsley being on and discussed then switch off. When we were on first the other week I only watched it for about 4 minutes.

    Watch our bit, nothing else.

    When I think about it, I don't really watch any football that doesn't involve Barnsley. Only time I watch England is when it's the Euros or World Cup.

    Suppose I'm just a Barnsley fan and not a football fan o_O

    Never watched it and wouldn't even know where to find it. I don't watch MotD anymore and pretty much the only football I watch at all now is us when on the red button (though I watched us on ifollow on saturday).

    And just to add, my other half who was an Arsenal season ticket holder just 3 years ago doesn't even watch her team anymore and has no interest in football at all now.

    I'll be interested to see what happens over the next few years, if people are getting tired of live football and are fed up of the greed of the top leagues or once fans are allowed back in grounds we'll have something of a boom.

    Always watch our game and the rest of the championship win or lose and maybe flick through division one games. Think Colin Murray is very knowledgeable presenter who only has good things to say about us.

    I watch it because I like to see how other teams play and see how ex players are getting on. Must admit I'm usually tired by league 2 and end up going to bed. Love Colin's enthusiasm and its interesting listening to other ex players and managers thoughts on us.

    I only watch it when we win because I like Colin Murray's enthusiasm and he definitely has a soft spot for us. I think it's a crap show otherwise with mediocre pundits. As for MOTD I only watch that if one of the big boys has slipped up or Tottenham or Arsenal win.

    I never watch it. I rarely watch any football other than at Oakwell. The main exception is watching our highlights on YouTube and occasionally I might watch someone else's highlights if the mood takes me, e.g. Luton 3 Wednesday 2. :D
