Fans say ‘she didn’t even acknowledge it, poor bloke’ as Marc Webber’s hilarious festive Final Score update blanked

FANS commiserated with broadcaster Marc Webber after his festive witty ditty on BBC's Final Score was blanked by the studio presenter.

Webber couldn't resist when a player called List didn't miss - as he turned an update on Stevenage's Boxing Day clash with Northampton into a version of Christmas classic Santa Claus is Comin' to Town.

The former Sun man went viral after SINGING an impromptu version of the XMAS class.

As the Beeb's show went to Stevenage following their final goal in a 3-0 win, Webber warbled his lyrical response.

Bravely and brilliantly, he crooned: "He's Elliott List, His goal made it thrice, Reid in two minutes, Then a Roberts delight, Stevenage lead Northampton 3-0."

Unfortunately there was no reference to Webber's efforts in the studio - as the presenter carried on as normal.

Or as one viewer put it: "She didn't even acknowledge it, poor bloke."

Another fan posted: "This is unreal. Did the presenter just completely miss it."

A third was just as incredulous as he too gave her a Christmas red card: "How did she just have zero reaction to that."

But one listener pondered of the song: "How can something be so bad that it’s amazing."

The broadcaster himself responded to that on X: "Funny, cause that’s what Mrs Webber says to me as well."

And he told SunSport: "Always glad to put a smile on people's faces.

"I used to present the Northampton Town show on BBC Radio Northampton until a couple of years ago. Some Cobblers fans have been messaging me saying, 'Not happy our defeat has been highlighted - but it was funny!'"

And in fact Webber's musical Boxing Day banter has given him a festive fan club.

One admirer wrote: "Ahaha honestly it’s very creative. Keep up the good work mate!"
