Here's a reply someone got from itv
Thought I would question the decision of ITV not to show tomorrow nights game, here was their somewhat vague response.
"Thank you for your recent email regarding Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League.
Unfortunately we do not actually own the rights at this stage in the competition, and have to buy the matches on an individual basis. It all depends on the draw when we get to that stage, and whether or not we own the rights to show the matches.
We didn't show all of the qualifiers last year either, however on this occasion we have chosen to show the 2nd leg match against AEL Limassol. This match will bring an end to the tie, and will determine which team progresses to the next stage of the competition.
I do understand your frustration but I hope that this has allowed for you to accept, or at least understand the reasons behind our match selections.
I wish you the very best of luck in Cyprus tomorrow night, hopefully Spurs can bring back a healthy lead to defend at White Hart Lane next week.
You may also want to check whether BT Sport are covering any matches as they also have rights to the Europa League. Their website is:http://sport.bt.com
I hope that helps.
May I take this opportunity to thank you for taking the time to contact us here at ITV."
Thanks for that, at least they got a response lol
