...and miss all the goals! :lol:

IIRC this isn't the first time something like this has happened on ITV either.

ITV HD viewers miss England's first World Cup goal

ITV has apologised to its HD channel viewers after a "transmission problem" caused them to miss England's first World Cup goal.

I find the idea of any sporting event televised on ITV idiotic, especially as the game or race doesn't stop every 15 minutes for a commercial break.

I was furious. An ad break kicked in and I though 'huh???'. Then the game came back on after a few seconds and StevieG was running around like a nutter. Furious. :evil:
