Change to ITV Football Coverage

[Turkey]

The National ITV bosses have decided to axe Soccer Sunday and this will be replaced by the 'Championship Broadcast' at 1030 am on a Sunday morning for 45 mins.

Sounds like Championship league only.

Thats got to be good news.
Have some national exposure, hopefully on a consistent basis rather than ad-hoc like Merdians coverage.

Expect 30 minutes of Leeds, Sunderland and West ham, 10 minutes of adverts and the rest squeezed in 5 minutes

Not far off what the Premiership coverage though is it. Just have to hope we're playing a big club.

Terrible news, surely? We got little enough coverage competing against the teams in the Meridian region, what will we get if its a nationwide programme? Come back Andy Steggal, all is forgiven.

Have no fear. We'll be top of the league within no time.

I wonder what the Albion will receive as their part of the "ITV Championship TV pot"?

Hopefully a fair few (hundred) grand.

 

[Strike]

I will be at church when its on.

 

[Giant Seagull]

Does this mean theres no league programme at the highly convieniant peak time slot of 2am on mondays now ?

 

[GUNTER]

At least we may get relegated from last place in the coverage with that accolade going to Bournemouth!
