BBC generally I prefer the commentators and no adverts.

I don't think they have adverts on ITV when they're screening sport? Except at half-time maybe, but then everyone's gone to the loo / to get a drink anyway.

BBC but we have discovered today if you watch it in ultra HD there is a 20 second delay.

Tealightsandd · 11/07/2021 16:51

We can't stand Gary Linekar so we'll be watching on ITV.

willithappen · 11/07/2021 16:51

Yeah ITV adverts are only during half time, before/after

Hellocatshome · 11/07/2021 16:53

BBC I cant cope with adverts in football

SimonJT · 11/07/2021 16:53

We live BBC five live, so we watch the TV on mute with radio commentary.

BBC. Prefer all the presenters and commentators

Ottercave · 11/07/2021 17:05

Always the BBC over ITV.

DeathMetalMum · 11/07/2021 17:06

They don't put adverts half way through the match but before hand it's always just after they've come onto the pitch or just after the national anthems, ruins the build up for me.

This is an interesting point! We watched the last game and heard the neighbours cheering and the notifications popping up on our phones yet no one had scored Grin

That's a good idea. We might try it, if ITV isn't great.
Holothane · 11/07/2021 17:24

@justgettingbye let’s just say today I just have had it up to here, so I’m off for me time at 8

MickyBlueEyes · 11/07/2021 17:38

BBC, I prefer the presenters.

newnortherner111 · 11/07/2021 17:39

BBC, don't like Roy Keane as a pundit though acknowledging the seven or so years when he was a great player.

Yep this. BBC definitely.
