ive got a theory about England, Major Tournaments and the games shown on ITV and BBC. im pretty sure that we get knocked out of competitions when the game is televised by ITV more than we do when shown on the BBC. would anyone care to research this matter? because if its true, not only is ITV's coverage shite! the picture is poorer than BBC and Sky and we may also get knocked out more often than not when playing on ITV.........i bloody hate ITV!  |

It's a shame the first 2 games are on ITV.
However, every England game from there on in will be on the BBC.

I fucking hate ITV's coverage of England games, the adverts ar ebad enough but then you have to listen to the drivel spouted by Steve Rider and Andy Townsend plus whoever else they can get, is Terry Venables an ITV pundit?.
As much as I am starting to detest Lineker on the BBC, I do like their coverage and Motty is a legend.

Ha ha!! I know it is a bit daft. But I do!! I remember for example in 1978 when Arie Haan scored the screamer for Holland it was Gerald Sinstadt so ITV.
It wasn't until 1994 when every game was played seperately to maximise TV exposure. Until then games were often played simultaneously. In 1990 while England drew 0-0 with Holland Scotland were beating Sweden. And while Brazil beat Sweden Germany beat Yugoslavia 4-1.
The only games played simultaneously now are the final group games. This rule was introduced in 1986 in response to the Germany Austria 'fix' of the previous tournament.
