Diary of a Sky Sports Soccer Saturday Reporter

Following a two week rest due to the international break – I was eager to see which match I’d get on my Sky Sports return. Rotherham v Dagenham… great!

My lack of enthusiasm had nothing to do with Rotherham because I know they’re a decent side, it’s just that Dagenham’s league games this season weren’t exactly thrillers – eight goals in six matches, to be precise. And when the home side scored after eight minutes and Sky didn’t take an update, I thought I’d be in for a quiet afternoon. I was wrong. Three more goals before the interval and three reports on Sky, so not a bad return.
