Never to the dark side Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 No not this week but next Sunday 15th February First thing first if any one only reads the headline and not the content and does not watch the programme today at 1230pm.Drop me a PM and I'll send my copy of the video highlights programme to you Looking at the schedules cos its FA Cup weekend the only regional slots for local football highlights programmes on Sundays is the slot between midday and 1pm Unfortunately the bosses of ITV West (not ITV west sport) I have spoken to Jed Pitman and he assures me that he has done everything in his power to try to get this altered and is very angry about the whole thing) as they make the schedule decisions have decided that we don't want to watch our local teams in action (that does include all four teams) on Sunday 15 febuary They think we want to watch that programme "That Esther" instead At the time of writing the following ITV regions WILL have a soccer sunday ITV Wales Tyne Tees Rovers highlights against Darlington Yorkshire maybe Rovers highlights again against Darlington Granada Swindon highlights against Stockport Anglia Bristol City highlights against Peterborough The following regions along with ITV West will NOT have a soccer sunday Central west country London Meredian these are all former Carlton companies but why is a ex Carlton company allowed to show highlights(ITV Wales) So much for ITV being one company I will be contacting Central, West Country. London and Meridian and see if they are thinking of transmitting a soccer sunday at midday Solution to the problem (as no football is allowed up against BBC FACup football is to transmit the Soccer Sunday at Midday.

Taz Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 Just something that I noticed from todays programme (missed the City highlights - put it on late ), but it seems that there is a new team in the Second Divison - Wickham. Perhaps one of the dyslexic typists from the forum has been on work experience at the Soccer Sunday studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedTop Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 Cheers, but I'll see the goals on Fox Sports World, and then again on BCFC World. Unfortunately UK videos don't work on US machines. Pain in the neck, that is, too. Thanks for the offer though, John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
