    Well I thought the first two, greece and holland were pretty poor. It was more of a travel show with a bit of footie thrown in. The Roma one last night was a lot better and it delved deeper into the history and background of why these clubs hate each other so much.

    I watch a lot of Italian football, more so than the premiership and myself am a Milan fan so I was interested to see how well they did with this one. I was I have to say surprised. They brought out a lot of good detail that I didn't think they would go into. Getting the Ultras to talk was a great touch and offered the angle that I was looking for and I was also delighted that they sat down with the face of Calcio (and the worlds best footie presenter), James Richardson. Yes there was also a lot they missed here but the main bases were covered.

    As for Ardal I think he is a little out of his depth with presenting. You can gradually see he is getting better but he just gives me the impression he'd be better doing a travel show rather than a football show. The Di Canio interview was dire and yes cringworthy.
