Can see this being quite entertaining actually.

Quite rightly not covering the England games, but I will definitly be using the red button to catch their first game and see how they do.

[Jill]

When do they first do it, have they said?

They've only revealed that they'll be the lunchtime kick offs

Thanks

[Walton]

I think North Korea v Greece will be the first game they commentate on.

[SCornelius7mufc]

I think North Korea v Greece will be the first game they commentate on.

I thought that until I noticed that was an ITV game.

[freddie]

Chris revealed this morning that they would be commentating on lunchtime kickoffs didnt he?

Well, the BBC lunchtime matches are:
Tue 15th Jun New Zealand V Slovakia
Fri 18th Jun Germany V Serbia
Mon 21st Jun Portugal V North Korea

And as well as those, there are some on a weekend, but I doubt that Chris and Dave would do these.

[Johnny 1989]

Out of interest, is anybody going to be capturing the soundtracks at all? I think these might be quite funny.

[Yudster]

I'll be at work for the lunchtime games, but I reckon the commentaries will be funny.

[DevilsDuck]

I'll be at work to!

will need someone to upload it so I can download it and listen to it on the way home from work

[Nicola_Red]

I'm actually off work in that first week so I'll probably listen to one and see how amusing it is. I don't particularly like football, so they'll have to be pretty good to make it entertaining!

[Bonanzoid]

As much as I love Chris, Dave and Aled, and as much as I love football, I'm sceptical as to how they'll mix. We can only wait and see!

[SAV1OUR]

It would also be funny if Aled walks in with half a slice of toast in his mouth, and says something like "Shame about so-and-so being evicted on Friday wasn't it" And then they all start talking about BB when a goal is scored. Or Dave and Dom in the far background and you can just about hear them doing a bit of impromptu Folkface.

[McGuinness-89]

He wasn't mentioned but I hope Dominic is part of it.

[chrysostom]

Dom's probably on newsbeat duty he gets left out of everything!

[MRM]

I think New Zealand v Slovakia on Tuesday, 15 June will be the first game, especially after Chris said the first one will be fascinatedly dull.

Also does anyone know if you’re going to be able to listen to it online? I remember when they first mentioned it this week (Tuesday I think) and Chris was talking about it being on the red button, Aled said “and online” in the background, but its not been mentioned since.

[JimBoss1986]

This could be quite funny!
Shame I'm at work though, do you think that the BBC are allowed to play World Cup games on iPlayer?? Hang on, on second thoughts, why did I even ask that? If it was on iPlayer I'd get Lawrenson and Co anyway.... Ignore me.... Everyone else does...

[northernsteve]

I think there was an "and online" mentioned

[wireman2004]

be aware that the i player will not have the red button feed. so if you want too listen too chris commentating. the only alternative is listening live or record it on VHS whth the red button feed on.

I wish they wouldn't tell us the gags they're going to do.

"I'm going to pretend I don't know who the players are"

Yeah, nice one - but it'd be funnier if I heard you trying to figure out the players and I was unaware that you were doing it on puprpose.

It's a bit like "I slept with Chris Moyles last night" - it's funny, but it'd be funnier if I didn't hear you persuading Billie Piper to say it and then hear Billie Piper saying "Oh, and I've got to tell you I slept with Chris Moyles last night".

It kind of ruins the illusion....

[McGuinness-89]

Did they announce which games they're doing?Haven't heard todays show yet.

[DarroM]

Did they announce which games they're doing?Haven't heard todays show yet.

Yes they announced they are doing the New Zealand vs Slovakia next Tuesday at 12:30. I believe they are doing the Germany v Nigeria game also since they briefly mentioned it. Great news for me since I am off so can listen. Couldn't care less about football and the World Cup but hopefully this should be funny.

[MRM]

Yeah it is the New Zealand vs Slovakia match on Tuesday at 12:30 and also the Germany vs. Serbia game on Friday at 12:30.

It is a reel shame there are lunch time matches during the week, like most listeners including me most people will be working, yes I will be at a computer but the internet at work is restricted so no chance there, I would of thought they may have done at least one evening match, the best I will get is what clips they play on the shows the next day after each match, bummer

It is frustrating, I agree lunch time matches is no good for most of us (including me) a good idea would of been 1 lunch time match, 1 afternoon match, and 1 evening match, then everyone has a chance, I suppose Chris and Dave prefered lunch time matches for some reason.
