Their coverage is annoying. That commentator tonight, was it Clive Tydsley? So negative all the time until England scored then we were the best thing since sliced bread and then we were crap again, only for him to wrap up things with something like "England are on the march!!!"

Only good things were Venables and Pearce, but overall they are definite losers to the good old Beeb.

And finally, adverts :angry:

ITV is shit for football, although Clive is an Albion fan, I don't rate him as a good commentator

Southgate, Vebables and PEarce make perfect sense, they know what they're talking about . . . . its not their job to be charismatic and celebrituous ( is that a word ?!!:eek: )

ITV is poor though!

I know they have to put adverts on to earn money etc. but I think if they wan't to improve their coverage they should stop putting adverts on before other games are about to kick-off.

Their picture is crap as well, thank god the rest of Englands games will be on BBC HD (I guess BBC have the rights for the next game and they will both have the rest (if there are any more))

Southgate knows as much about football as he knows how to take a penalty

I thought the Honda one was good, it didn't have all those George Cross Emblems in it originally, did it?

Yeah, and if I remember rightly that game was on itv so he probably was the commentator that night, but I am 90% sure he is an Albion fan.

I can stomach Tydsley, but Southgate was a joke last night, going off topic at every opportunity

Why are people happy that our next match will be on BBC? That means we will have to endure 90 minutes of that twat Motson:censored:

But don't you get sound options to get rid of him?
