Oh yes footie fans you're in for a treat this summer. Jose Mourinho will be joined by co-hosts Wayne Rooney and Sven-Goran Eriksson on ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Three throughout the World Cup 2010. The boys will be bringing you the latest insights into all the action in South Africa on their topical phone-in show Special 1 TV.
The Special One is convinced that signing to ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Three is the right move:
'But of course. Why not? They are fantastic. They are broadcasting champion. I am champion and I am also maker of champions and so I will make them even more champion channel.'
Modest as ever.
And if that isn't enough enough for you then wait until you hear who else will be joining them. Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger, Steven Gerrard and David Beckham will all be offering their own unique perspectives on the beautiful game. Wait there's more - Barack Obama, yes the USA football team's number one fan, will also be joining in on the debate.
Special 1 TV starts on ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Three on Friday 11th June at 10.30pm.
Plus we'll be bringing you some exclusive online videos that you'll only be able to watch right here on the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Three blog.
³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Three will be showing some World Cup matches. Visit the to find out more.
Dana Stevens is content producer for ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Three online.

As the shows greatest supporter i would like to thank you on behalf of all the members of my online activities for & on behalf the show.
Good luck to you all & I'm sure a huge success on your hands as the show was only available on that terrible sports network(we don't use the "S" word)that went bust a year ago.
We have been waiting for so long in the hope that someone with sense would take the show on - having recognised it's genius & it's innovative attitude toward the Internet content on YouTube etc & the sheer writing & performance talent of the producers/talent.
11 meetings with RTE umming & rrrr-ing then then Jose's favourite Auntie steps in & agrees a deal in one morning.
Our faith in the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ has been restored...we prey for success & for a return on a permanent basis for the next premier league season.
Be Champions

I had become a cult follower of Special 1 TV and was more than exhilarated to learn that the Beeb was bringing back the show.
However, I reside in Rwanda East Africa which means I like hundreds of my friends will not be able watch the show online. Please ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ 3 make it available for people beyond the UK as thousands world over had become addicted to the show on youtube.
Please allow the likes of Doitchampions to post it online.
Do it!

I hope it attracts enough viewers so you give it a weekly episode throughout the new premier league season (whether it contionues on bbcthree or by giving it a segment in MOTD)
Second, to José, very nice, welcome back special one.
Here is a question for the show, who is your favourite to win the 2010 world cup and what do you think of Sven pimping himself to be next Liverpool manager, stay champion!

I know Jose will be very busy with his Real project, but we all hope ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ3 will be able to engage him for the upcoming regular season, the EPL is just not complete without him. We have our tanks ready! Wish we could watch it live on the website, but being in the US we can not unfortunately. Many thanks though to ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ3 and Doitchampions for getting the shows to Youtube for us to enjoy. Really appreciate that. If we may, we have one request and one question for Jose.
We would like It to sing the Ivory Coast national anthem.
Jose, how many Champions League titles do you plan on winning?
Do it. Be champions.

They have their own long running sketch, Aprés Match, for the World Cup and dont show any live Premier League football. And as usual the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ website is practically useless if you dont live in the UK.

Agreed with # 4 – I'm surprised it's more popular in States than in England! More love for the beautiful game in America is always a good thing. Will it be available via the YouTube channel? The ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ tends to protect its online content via IP restriction. I’m sure I can find a way to watch it Well done ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ.
