While I agree that ITV's coberage is a bit lacklustre, but I also find BBC's coverage of the FA Cup to be poor.That will be **** then Itv football coverage is poor
Just listening to them last night
Agree. They love a story about the full back who's also a window cleaner, or the fact Jurgen Klopp was interviewed in the broom cupboard at SJP. I remember when David Noble hit the bar from a side footed volley, possibly against Warrington and the beeb were completely shocked about how good his technique was, they kept banging on about it like lower division players aren't going to be technically gifted.While I agree that ITV's coberage is a bit lacklustre, but I also find BBC's coverage of the FA Cup to be poor.
This is especially true of the early rounds which they cover in such a patronising manner. They always look for the quirky, homespun story and camera shot. It's as if they can't believe that anyone outside the Premier League is actually serious about football.
It's largely the same with 5Live.
To be fair everyone I've talked to about it also loved the fact Jurgen Klopp was interviewed in the broom cupboard at SJP. I've shown a few visitors around the ground in close seasons or weekdays and they were either delighted to see the room or, nowadays, disappointed to find that it no longer exists.Agree.

Are you going Les? I watched Bromsgrove in the second qualifying round and might have gone to this one also as its only a few miles from home - unfortunately family commitments now prevent me from going. Bromsgrove are what you'd expect from a club at that level who have got this far.Don't forget to watch The Mighty Mariners on the BBC Red Button on Saturday before you head off to SJP, to see what a fantastic side we have this season.
Really setting us up there for an almighty fail.
I appreciate this is an FA Cup thread, but great to see Les's boys at the top of the Lge. Hopefully, you'll be back in Lge 2 next season, even if we aren't there to play you.Don't forget to watch The Mighty Mariners on the BBC Red Button on Saturday before you head off to SJP, to see what a fantastic side we have this season.
