The Champions stuffed again by ITV

Last updated : 19 September 2002 By Chris Parry
Next Wednesday's away game at PSV Eindhoven will only be shown live on ITV News - a limited availability channel which can only be accessed by certain cable viewers, not by Sky Digital subscribers.

ITV2 - which is available to anyone with a Sky Digibox on a free-to-air basis, will be showing live coverage of Liverpool v. FC Basel.

ITV1 are only permitted to show one live game per week, which they have decided will be on a Tuesday - Blame the Coronation St. viewers. They can however show live games on ITV2 on a Tuesday and a Wednesday, which means during any given week, three out of our four clubs will be shown live on ITV1 or 2. Newcastle were the unlucky team this week - next week it's us.

It's time to end the Man.Utd. / Liverpool bias by the TV companies - I say "What about the bloody Champions????"
