View Full Version : Cherundolo/O'Brien promo
In this promo they say Ajax can be seen on FSW. No it can't. Do they not know their own lineup. What gives?

UEFA Cup by any chance? I'm just guessing, honestly, because I haven't been following it.

Nope. They're still in the Champions League. And they pronounce Ajax like the dishwashing liquid, not Eye-ax.

They should have at least hired someone who can pronounce Ajax to do the commercial. Or notice that O'Brien plays fullback on his club team, not midfield.

Last year they used to show the dutch league, 90% of the games involved Ajax. For some reason i don't know of, they do not carry the dutch league this year.
The promo might have been an old one they keep using , you have made a good point.

I'm pretty sure it is a new promo. I watch FSW all the time. I probably would've seen it.
Maybe we'll see an MLS promo with Branco and Cle Kooiman.

Yeah last year they messed up on that. Because unless you actually want to go and look at standings and results on the net you had no idea about the Dutch league (not me btw lol)
Same with the Spanish League this year. If they want to show a league they should show multiple games per game and show highlights and review the standings (like bundesliga, before they made the Bundesliga review show, they had highlights and talked about the standings during half-time of the Sunday match).
For Spanish League, they give you results quickly before the telecast, show you the match and tell you to tune in next week. If thats what they plan on doing again for the Spanish league next season they might not as well show the league at all, although FSW Report helps its not enough. Maybe they should do like they did on German broadcasts, Less commericals at half-time and show highlights and review the standings and show next rounds matchups.
I hope you guys see what i am trying to say lol.

Yeah, they started it 2 weeks ago.
Last two weeks it's been on Tuesday at 2pm. (Its an hour show)
This week it will be on Wedensday from 2-3pm.
They show a few re-runs but those usually air in the middle of the night.

Yeah, they're promoting the Yanks Abroad more, no question. Both of the promos are new.
Along with their agreement with MLS, they seem to be aligning themselves more with the hardcore American fan...or at least in addition to the more European or Latin fans out there.
