Be fair James, you did start one of them yourself.

I remember your first couple of shows James, you was terrible lol.
That was in the good old days, when the cards used to pop out of the screen (dont know how to describe it) & the presenters had to stand up ALL night & point at the images lol...
Look at James now, hes really good, like all the presenters who have been doing it along time.
I feel quite bad now for not posting on the show thread sorry Yiannis and Jen, i did think about it but as i didnt have anything revolutionary to say or ask i just didnt, i regret this now cos it must have been really hard for them, i watched the whole show though, i wasnt live tho so by the time i realised nobody was contributing it was too late.
But just to add my lil 2 cents worth that i havnt seen anyone else mention, i cant help but feel SKY themselves didnt help much, where was the competition? or an interesting theme or discusssion point? Poor Yiannis was left to do it all himself, and for those ppl foolishly critiqing his "filler" styles of questions and comments = you have no idea how hard he had it, with so much dead air to fill and no help from viewers he was seriously up s### creek without a pot to doodah.
Like Lambert said i like Yiannis' style, he will be great for shows new players watch as he does the brilliant thing of asking WHY. Seen and enjoyed all three shows he has done and look forward to the next where i sincerely hope the sky poker community will rally around him and give him the support he deserves (imagine the absolute drivel that would come out of Orfs or Harts mouths if they have to fill for 5 hrs with no posts to read lol).
This thread started with a horrible bullying vibe from someone who expresses such ridiculous views, thankfully by page 5 it has turned into utter awesomeness, im glad the good outweigh the bad
Tbh I dont think yiannis has much to worry about, its only when a hand is named after you or you last 2 minutes in a SPT that you really got a problem!

For what it's worth, I think all the presenters do a difficult job incredibly well. I enjoyed Yiannis's style and look forward to his next show. I'm sure that, in time, he'll win over the doubters. Even the maestro, Richard Orford, must have had his critics in the early days.

Also just had a thought ......... where on earth is STU RUTTER? im sure he hasn't done a show for at least 6 weeks, dear god please don't tell me he is no longer sky?
I also wonder why we cant have more guests on the show, not sure what happened with Ian Fraser he was on quite often then never again, Channing or Rasavi as a guest is always welcome
Guests are great too, always more fun with them on. Can think of loads of great guests I'd love to see again, Channing, Burland, Schwartz, not to mention the Sky reg guests like TommyD and Coxy.
