Friday Night Football on Sky Sports is essentially MNF with Rachel Riley, Jeff Stelling, and couches, and yet it very rarely offers up any decent analysis at all.
This week, for West Ham's win over Tottenham Hotspur that all but ended Mauricio Pochettino's Premier League title dreams, the panel of pundits chose was Alan Pardew, Jamie Redknapp, and Theirry Henry.
Having popped up on MNF earlier in the week, Pardew was making his second punditry appearance in a very short space of time, and seemingly that upset a lot of football fans watching at home.
Did Rachel Riley just call Spurs a 'bottle job' there? Yes, yes she did.
As for Pards, he didn't help himself by claiming that West Ham '38,000' fans made it difficult for spurs, when the official attendance was in the region of 58,000, but that was not the only thing that bothered the masses.
"That's about as best as West Ham could have played" - Alan Pardew

Alan Pardew on Friday night telly, in chilled out mode, with a captive audience.

Wait, Alan Pardew just said ''in front of 38,000'' I swear the attendance was like 55,000?
