    Typical BBC

    Used to be essential viewing on a Saturday lunchtime before heading off to watch my team. It used to cover the forthcoming games as well as reports from the previous week's games.

    Now...it focuses on issues that only a small minority are interested in. Feels more like a feature section from The Guardian newspaper.

    Sickening pc rubbish

    Used to be good but now they just make sure they tick every box for pc brigade. Always have to have a female and a bame person too. Pushing womens football too when no one watches or cares about it. No mention of lower league games at all.

    Unwatchable

    Football focus? This drivel is more 'diverse' 'thought provoking' touchy feely Guardian readers tripe. Now what would be good would be a programme concentrating on what's going on in the game, looking at upcoming games and tactics with some scuttlebut about what's happening re possible team changes, performances and insights into the teams. I'm not interested in what music the players like, how they cope with the hideous racism that is apparently so rife (on twitter?) that these humungously well paid and hero worshipped 'stars' so bravely combat by taking the knee and caring for their mental health.

    I no longer waste my time with this dross. Would rate it zero stars if I could.

    Alex is Awful

    We used to really enjoy this show, Alex is awful choice, really disappointed with the BBC ...killing the show.

    Can't believe off all the choices they may have has that Alex was the best option.

    They've lost us as viewers ... really dissapointed.

    BBC need to change this for next season.

    Dan Walker is a very hard act to follow, not sure what's going on with the bbc these days, one on itv , give us decent football show !!!!!!!!

    Its All Arsenal or Nothing

    Since Alex Scott became Football Focus presenter in my opinion its all Arsenal driven and her side kick who else but Martin Keown.

    It has become a cringe worthy show which is so biased between Arsenal, Liverpool,Man Utd and Man City that no other teams exits. Today of course they picked out Beth Mead who does she play for?
