Yep. Which is why I can't understand why our game is being shown.

Sutton v Wimbledon is Norway's selected afternoon kickoff. The no football at 3pm Saturday rule you have has to go.

West Ham will be killed by these owners and this stadium.

So that everyone can see West Ham embarrass themselves on national TV

That to be fair is a huge perk.

Quite. But my point was that why isn't that game being televised live in the UK? It beggars belief that big club v big club fixtures are being shown but the clubs that need the income the most are being ignored. This is, after all, the FA Cup.
Maybe because no one would watch it!?

I want them to do badly, but not so badly that the dildo brothers have had enough. My only concern is that they get bought by rich arabs.
I want the current owners to be there forever

I'm sure this one sided episode drew in the viewers, eh?
This is the FA Cup, not the premiership. On BBC, not a commercial station so it doesn't matter who watches.

Fair play to the BBC, there was an alternative game to watch tonight. As the West Ham game was fast becoming a walkover I watched the last 10 minutes of the Hibernian v Dundee United game on BBC ALBA - played on my laptop via Chromecast to my telly. 3-0 it ended up, only problem was the commentary was in Gaelic.
The Beeb still care about viewers, why else would they put anything on?

Don't worry. Maybe I'm just a dinosaur who wants to see lower league clubs get a well needed bonus rather than the usual suspects.
Then again, I actually go and watch my local non league side. Not as much as I'd like but I go. I normally wish I hadn't by half time.

Actually considering the significance of the match, it being a local derby and the FA Cup third round with a potential giant killing (relatively speaking) it's probably the most interesting tie of the whole round.

Keep playing like this, drop down a division and no one will want to buy them. They don't even own their own stadiumI want them to do badly, but not so badly that the dildo brothers have had enough. My only concern is that they get bought by rich arabs.

Being televised here in America
