WD40 725 Posted July 8, 2021 2 minutes ago, Vazzza said: It would always be BBC for me regardless of who the pundits are, just for no adverts… Right? And it’s not even close. That t*sspot they have anchoring the ITV coverage who mainly does the rugby is absolutely second rate. It’s just a shame ITV signed up Gary Neville and BBC have Jermain Jenas.

Branston Pickle 4,008 Posted July 8, 2021 BBC all day long - it’s almost not worth itv even showing it, they’ll probably get a quarter (if that) of the viewing figures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,695 Posted July 9, 2021 BBC when the adverts are on, but might switch around channels during and before/after the match and quite like seeing Roy Keane/Gary Neville and co, so definitely mix and match for me. As for the adverts, it's like you are at a match and someone stands up in front of you and blocks your view and who won't get out of the way so you can see what is going on.

KiwiScot 1,648 Posted July 9, 2021 BBC opening credits are class. ITV commentator for the semi was annoying as hell, the bulid awful. BBC every time, but will check out ITV for a bit. Can we get the BBC Nfl show team doing it as well with guest appearance from Gary Imlach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dylanisabaddog 5,633 Posted July 9, 2021 BBC obviously with the added bonus that you can have the 5Live commentary via the red button. There is a very good game if Roy Keane is on. He regularly starts a sentence with the word "listen" as if he's going to say something profound. It amuses me to turn the sound off at that point and take a few seconds to wonder why someone who nearly destroyed Sunderland and Ipswich is considered to be an expert. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norfolk Mustard 106 Posted July 9, 2021 BBC every time for me - no contest whatsoever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy_Bones 444 Posted July 9, 2021 BBC all the way, better commentary and I don't have look at Roy Keane's sour face or listen to his aggressive and dismissive nonsense either. I do rate Gary Neville though, shame he couldn't have been with the Beeb instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fr. Chewy Louie 137 Posted July 9, 2021 BBC of course, but hope they pick a decent comms team. There seems to be a trend for summarisers who sound a bit uninterested (Keown, Dixon, Murphy). Would like someone a bit more positive and enthusiastic. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
