Welcome to 'The Armchair Fan', a blog dedicated to the world of sport on television.
Ever since the good ol' days of Jimmy Hill and that chin on 'Match of the Day' (BBC), sports coverage on the small screen has undertaken an immeasurably thorough metamorphosis. Yet in this multi-media age, it still sits proud as the main vehicle for sport on the planet. How do the bigwigs do it?
Well, this blog will aim to provide some answers. Taking an irreverent (but never irrelevant) look at television sport today, 'The Armchair Fan' will aim to observe the good, the bad and the Mark Lawrensons of this popular and extremely influential medium.
Enjoy, The Scrutineer
