I find it so bad I wont watch it, the pundits are mindnumbinlgy boring and the commentators are equally dull. When FA cup was on bbc I'd gladly watch the matches at the weekend, but now its on ITV I won't go near it.

I hate it when its itv's turn for champions league football. They're so bad at it.

Its always very telling that when football is dual screened on both bbc/itv or sky/itv (e.g the world cup final) itv always lags behind its competitors in the viewing numbers.

Along with all that the quality of the broadcast is terrible, almost unwatchable on a decent screen.

Well I think anyone watching the FA Cup match between Liverpool and Everton last night now realise why ITV are crap at football. 2 mins left to go in extra time and the screen randomly flicked onto adverts! Then after 30 seconds or so it returned to the game with Everton having scored the winning goal... and ITV missed it, what a JOKE!!!! biglaugh They really are rubbish!
