have they picked the mighty man utd v olympiakos as their game to televise yet?

Saw yesterday before I set off for the game that some fans who weren't going were struggling to find streams.

I'm not sure how you got on, but judging by the limited camera equipment at the game and the woeful quality of TV footage seen on last night's highlights, I wouldn't be surprised if you were left disappointed!

Let's face it ITV are just crap at producing and televising football. I'm sure I remember at least 2 occasions when they have switched to the adverts in major games whilst the game was still ongoing. Utterly hopeless.

I'm sure one was a Liverpool v Everton cup tie and the other was England v USA in the World Cup. HD viewers missed Gerrard's goal in the World Cup match. They really are shite.

An advert for Tic-Tacs I recall.

The coverage was really piss poor. I can' t for the life of me understand why they use keane as a pundit, he's truly awful. As a pundit he probably makes a good manager.

I hadn't seen the city goals since the game itself so tuned in last night, Sunday. Jesus, it was awful viewing. Clark Carlisle must be the dullest co-commentator\pundit on t.v.

Apart from that, they went to adverts 3 times in 30 minutes and each time for 4 or 5 minutes a go!

If you haven't watched the highlights programme, don't bother. I won't be doing again.

More classic ITV on the highlights show last night. Smarmy Matt introducing Sheff U v Fulham as the next game, and they show us coming out at the Etihad!

I'm in Ireland so can't watch it on their player. Hoping it'll be on the OS soon. Hate ITV.

I don't know why they bother paying any pundits to pundit[?] because the show comes on after a set of adverts and they have about a quarter of an hour before the match starts and they have two advert breaks within that time. Same at half time. Same after the game. Imagine how much money ITV would save if they sacked off the pundits.

If they didn't have pundits and just had the presenter telling us who was in the starting line-ups there might be some time to show who was actually on the bench as they seem to be very hit and miss over showing the benches and not. They usually do for England games but almost never do for other games.

Also with the money saved they might be able to get some decent equipment that doesn't break down and have everyone miss goals as the broadcast disappears from everyone's screens.

Shite commentator (Rag). Shit co commentator (knows fuck all and played for Ireland. Gutless yes men pundits. Adrian crack a fucking unfunny joke every second sentence. Technical issues usually and fucking adverts. I hope the bbc are covering the majority of the world cup.
