I'm on setanta sports first appeared at the beginning of December 2007 & has been a cult football comedy hit ever since.
At first the show was a solo effort with The special one in the studio alone & taking calls from various other football faces & Managers
(with the exception of a certain Dave from Newcastle).
In due coarse Two more regulars were drafted in by Jose in the shape of Sven ("IT") & the boy Wayne (Rooney) This move bought a massive comical boost to the show & helped increase it's popularity.
In autumn 08 a certain Mr Fabio Capello (cabbage man) came into the show as THE BOSS much to Jose's disgust. But he has seldom been seen since a certain election defeat to Jose. (Do not cross the special one).
In early January 2009 setanta stunned the shows millions & millions of Fantastic fans by announcing that IOSS was to end the following weekend.....for no apparent reason.
DAVE LENNON (Director of this channel) went Ballistic & started an online campaign to save this special show.
After 10 days of this campaign it was announced through a special episode (EP00 on this channel) that the show was to return with a new name "Special 1 TV".
The fans rejoiced & I slept properly for the first time in ten days.
The whole thing had been a cheap marketing ploy (as stated by Sven in EP01) to accommodate a new sponsor (pools4all.com).
However - this author got his reward when his campaign & his name was given a rather special mention in the transitional show ...
(From IOSS to Special 1 tv (EP00) Has Jose punked the world?).
& so we are now into a new era for our hero.
Please enjoy Special 1 tv.
If you would like to see the whole Fantastic channel which includes every episode in the correct order along with much more footy fun then hit my name (Doitchampions) & subscribe to receive every new episode as it appears.
