Why on earth do they bother? They're so tacky and second rated. They've picked rarely any decent games for extended highlights too.
Forest Green V Derby
Macc V Everton
Preston V Liverpool
and forgotten the others if there were any.
Match of the day would no doubt of picked better games and have no doubt a better commentry team or a more public prefered one.
I used to love watching round 3/4 on Match of the day, even if town weren't in it.
Watching Robbie Earl and co instead of Lineker, Hansen etc makes it look a cheap and tatty show and they don't know what they're talking about. Mind you, Lineker is a bit iffy on his football knowledge. It's just annoying that ITV seems to be killing the FA Cup spirit. Preston V Liverpool earlier too, it just isn't the same. Bring back BBC!

What this has to do with town? They showed Nat Brown miss a header for Macc, he used to play for town ;D While they also showed towns defeat in the FA Cup final (I think it was town)

I agree it doesn't feel right for some reason.

ITV should not be allowed to bid on football anymore after the ITV digital debacle. That and they are rubbish at it. BBC have Football League highlights too from next season  |

the 3 games mentioned in the first post in terms of featured games are fair enough,esp macc v everton and FGR v derby-for some reason they had hull v newcastle as a featured game with an actual commentator,why ive no idea-setanta from what ive heard is garbage,they pick stupid games for tv when it comes to cup games (spurs v wigan?!!!) as soon as the weather gets even a little bit dodgy you lose the signal,their range of commentators is rubbish,and quite frankly i think its a shame the FA ditched quality (bbc n sky) for more money but lower quality (itv n setanta) if nothing else bbc n sky picked remotely decent fa cup games,not like setanta (leeds v northampton,then the same game as a replay?!!tranmere v accrington as a replay?!!bournemouth v blyth,spurs v wigan?!!!) can just see setanta choosing a game like burnley v qpr as a live replay given how horrific their choices have been-the FA have certainly ensured the only way i'll be watching the cup final while those 2 are showing it is if town are in it,cos setanta is garbage accordin to alot of ppl i know,n itv,well,their coverage will be even worse (esp with david 'i cant say players names right n im monotonous n im about as interesting as dog sh*t on a stick' pleat no doubt being the co-commentator for the final)
