ESPN or ITV ?

Postby bluebananamilksheikh » Sat May 14, 2011 7:15 am

For All City fans watching the game at home today, which side will you be watching on ?

ESPN Coverage already started at 8 !!!!

ESPN Coverage will be advert free, but big Sam & Savage !

ITV - Shitloads of adverts & Adrian Childs !!

I have ruled out the pub because, I'll end up having more than a heated debate with the title winning Rags!!!

You can subscribe to ESPN on Sky, also the ESPN coverage is on SKY Sports 3D, I'm on Virgin & it comes with the package.

ESPN for me. The advert free format from 12:30 is enough to swing it.

The more important question for me is when is it acceptable to start drinking. Nervous as fook!!

I'd say it was acceptable when the Live TV coverage starts on ESPN !
TV Coverage start started at 8 am on ESPN !!
So from my viewpoint you can start now !!!

Chiles is a dick, so ESPN for me. (I can't stand the way he 'erm's around three times per sentance, and how he practically whispers one minute then gets too loud the next sentance)

Does ITV have an international version? I am searching the net for it but so far only UK version, blocked for the rest of the world.

ITV has Tueart and the Goat as pundits, right? ESPN has Le Bouf (spelling?) on the panel who just said he has no respect for players like De Jong....

Sky in Japanese for me. The commentator and pundit will be munes and not that knowledgeable (they are Japanese after all) but I can turn the sound down.

All this anti-City stuff on Sky, ITV, BBC etc is just sauce for the goose.

I much prefer the ITV commentary team.
And Gareth Southgate is probably the best of the panellists, although Childs is a d!ckhead!

Just let down by Adrian Chiles - and adverts from hell. Sky is bad enough but ITV should not be allowed to do sport, it is just wrong.
