Farce of England match coverage

While at the doctors today while watching the news I was aware that the england match at the weekend is only being shown online. What really annoys me is that they expect you to pay nearly £5 to watch it online. And what are the problems with being online.....

1) what if the internet crashes?

2) what about low bandwidth?

3) what if the computer crashes?

4 ) plus lower definition on a computer!

All in all its a mega stupid idea in my opinion, which has highly annoyed me!

Just another example of money grabbing in sport.OK ,all sporting organisations will try to maximise their financial potential but I believe certain sports events should be made available to as wide an audience as possible & at a reasonable price.

Our national side isn't worth watching at best of times, never mind paying for the pleasure! I admire those who buy tickets to see the game because I know if I did, well I would expect to see our team at least perform like one.

Watch the game online?

That's nonsense! It's much harder to stream a match from your telly, making people pay will just attract attention of pirates and with it being online it'll be much more accessible.

It's nice to see that the BBC had highlights in the end anyway, but couldn't say anything until after the match, due to contracts.

The game was abit of a let down anyway though.
