The show included various additional features since it began in August 2004 and had its format changed due to widespread criticism of the number of commercial breaks.
There were also many occasional reporters such as Richard Henwood, Tom Skippings, Mike Hall, Andy Kerr, Mick Conway and Gary Bloom.
It primarily featured coverage of the weekend's biggest Championship games, with a larger focus on the automatic promotion, playoff and relegation spots as the season progressed.
Occasionally, the show would include reports and features on notable incidents throughout the Football League, such as Leicester City manager Gary Megson's departure after just 41 days in 2007.
For the 2009–10 season, the BBC took over the domestic rights package, which also included live games, and broadcast a similarly formatted programme called The Football League Show on Saturday nights after the existing Match of the Day.
