BBC - probably with the red button 5 Live commentary running.

It'd be interesting to know how much ITV are charging for advertising during their World Cup Final coverage. Prime-time Sunday evening viewing for a World Cup Final would be top dollar you'd think. But the fact that its also on the BBC obviously means that their audience will be miniscule by comparison, being as only somebody very odd indeed would choose to watch it on ITV. Even if some weirdo's actually WANTED to listen to the excruciating Tyldsley/Townsend combo for the game, shirley at half time they'd still be flicking over to the BBC for Hansons halftime swansong, rather than watching another frigging Fosters ad and putting up with that bloody aggravating "brraaaaaseeeeeel, braaaasseeeeel" for any longer than absolutely necessary.
If I was an advertiser, I wouldn't be wasting my money trying to flog my wares during this game. Although I guess they pay for their airtime over the tournament as a whole.

I'll be flipping over during the advert breaks to have Ray Winstone tell me how to lose money in a gruff, nefarious way, but then back to the beeb. Sad, in a way though, that i have to choose to watch squinty Shearer beating the clown dunce Robbie Savage in a footballing debate to consider my viewings high-brow.
You'd actually go out of your way, to deliberately listen to ALAN GREEN?
Christ. I'd rather watch ITV than that.
The OP should've made this a public poll so the 1 person voting ITV could be identified and sectioned for their own safety.

Is it Alan Hansen's last 'Match of The Day' on Sunday?

I've not watched anything on there regularly since Londons Burning.

Don't wait for me!
Has anyone else noticed how Alan S is now shouting down Alan H as he knows he's going? He's got his elbows out in the studio literally whoring himself to be the main man this year. Sad times.
Would be much more interesting if Sky were showing it on Sky1 HD, as well. ITV would then be better off re-running You've Been Framed rather than trying to compete on sport.
For the record I would/will be watching the standard World Cup Final on the BBC in high definition, in preference to the Super Sunday version.

Agreed.
Have ITV lost the Champions league as well as Sky?

Probably the most one sided NSC poll ever. Who voted itv?

He'd have a better chance of being reappointed Newcastle manager IMHO. Utterly useless, I don't think I've ever learnt a single thing about football from him, which given how good a player he was is pretty special.
I think I actually prefer Ian Wright.

Haha, my girlfriend said exactly the same thing to me last night. She got worried that we'd have to watch Adrian "I've got a face like a cattle-prodded scrotum" Chiles again.
We were watching the pre-match twatting about with the four blokes (O'Neill, Dixon, Cannavaro & Chiles) who all look like they're on a lads jolly by the seaside. The other half refers to them as the English, The Irish, the Italian and the Wanker.
