The match against Ukraine will not be shown on TV. instead it will be shown on the internet and in selected cinemas. The audience are invited to take part in this experiment of watching the game on their PC. On the radio this morning a chap said it was an interesting concept, citing his children watching TV on their laptop. All I can say is this is a load of bollocks! Having the away games on the now defunct Setanta was not ideal but at least you got to see the game by finding a pub that had Setanta. I will not be paying to watch on the internet and am not happy that the footballing public of the UK are being treated this way.
It is not the FA but the broadcasters who are not prepared to pay for the game. The only hope is to find a pub that has an irregular satellite TV feed, and that the game can be viewed in a foreign language.
