Even with the Toronto match they were all derisive of the Wolfpack`s tactics (quite rightly) and struggled to be objective in commentary, one or two of those kind of performances and people would be critical of our game because of that negative attitude to a one-sided match. Although Sky may seem stale it is in my opinion, a better produced and presented show, do we want change for changing sake? As I wrote earlier when Stevo retired I expected a new anchor, female, intelligent, good at their job, from Northern England,,,,,Melanie Sykes.
