Pidge it's all about bringing a balanced view to the masses with ITV showing matches in theory to give a full picture of English or British teams in Europe.
To be fair CSKA and Vicki Plez are not to quality opposition but that wouldn't stop them showing the rags.
Who knows how it's worked out though behind the scenes, and more to the point, who cares? Have us, United, Chelsea and Arsenal all had our respective games shown live throughout the competition so far? Yes.
Based on this forum and the General Forum, it seems the agenda stuff is just getting more and more bizarre/desperate to the point even the slightest thing is now jumped on. It's like people have to have something to find fault in, in how we are being perceived. Me personally, I would prefer to see all our games on Sky, especially the 6pm coverage ones where we get an hour and half of build up. ITV is and always has been very amateur in their football coverage, imo, so on that basis i'm happy for us to have the superior broadcaster to air our games, especially if it means listening to wee Graeme.
