snakehips 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 They have always been beside the pitch since ITV decided that was a GREAT innovation in football broadcasting Quite why they decided it would be good beats me. Gabby Logan! I would, but sometimes she doesn't half look butch imo. Maybe a GREAT ITV innovation would be for her to present the show topless?? Just a thought.

Rob W 0 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 they were by the pitch because the ground is so small The 5Live mob were whining on and on about how little they could see - like they couldn't see one corner nor the techncial area so when a sub was made the first thing they knew was when a player trotted off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I'm very sorry, gentlemen of the media, but our ground is just so small that the only place for you is on a foldy-up table by the side of the pitch. Once the match starts you'll have to fold it up and go and stand out of the way though!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 And why isnt the match being broadcast in widescreen ? boils my piss that 127615[/snapback] National TV companies oversee the coverage. Widescreen isn't that big in Spain so it isn't filmed that way 127634[/snapback] Its annoying that. My TV is normal screen, but the freeview box is widescreen , and that whole game had a big black border round the edge rather then a full screen. 127676[/snapback] so why didnt you watch it on normal telly then? rather than your freeview? 127679[/snapback] That involves moving the wire out the back of the freeview box and placing it into the TV, then when the match is done replacing said wire. Far too much effort... Especially when later on i can whinge about it to other folk on the internet... 127689[/snapback] Go into your freeview menu and chnage the picture size. Should give you full screen. Used to piss me off as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Kirkey 0 Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 It's a pretty awful standard, I generally switch on just before kick off and have the sound down at half time. And they never show who's on the bench either, which I think is another black mark against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
