Reality TV coming to Toon?

The paper claims that the programme-makers would be given full access to the dressing room and training ground for the whole of next season, and the results would end up as a Sky One series.

However it is also reported that although Sir Bobby is keen on the idea a number of players are unhappy about a potential invasion of their privacy and believe that what goes on in the dressing room should stay behind closed doors.

Although it would no doubt make fascinating viewing the risk of alienating the players during a potentially big season for the club hardly seems worth it. Especially when you look at other such documentary series, which all seem to be edited to portray the ‘stars’ in the worst possible light in order to provide ‘entertainment’.
