Which do you prefer?
Personally I can’t stand ITVs coverage but some like it. Here are my reasons;
- Lee Dixon. This is guy is a massive caant. Not content with looking like a corpse he’s also about as interesting as one. And he’s a miserable facker. Can’t stand him
- Mark Poo-gash. He’s just so dull. And that’s my problem with ITV football coverage. It’s just all too clinical. Even when they had that chubby faced caant Adrien Chiles doing it, you still felt like you were watching a funeral procession
- Eni Aluko. I’m all for inclusion and equality but this is an example of getting female pundits on TV for the sake of it. She adds nothing. Similar to Rachel Riley on Sky - it’s just a poor attempt to look progressive. If you want to use female pundits, which I think is a good idea, use decent ones.
- Glen Hoddle. What a monotonous caaant this guy is. Aside from believing disabled people were shiiiitbags in a previous life, his commentary contributions are woeful. Possibly as bad as Phil Neville. And he facked Irene Drury back in the day
- Adverts. I just get sick of adverts
For me BBC is much better. Lineker is a good anchor, ok Shearer is a bit of a C, but it’s just a more joyful experience for me. Plus they are streaming in 4K HDR over HLG which is awesome.
I’m all for hearing from people who hate BBC coverage though

Prefer beeb.
No adverts telling me how easy it is to bet
Beeb has Lineker and Gabby, ITV has Poogatch
mind you the beeb has Mark Chapman and Ive never forgiven him for shooting John Lennon
I prefer the beeb except when Jonathan Pearce is commentating ( He's carp) anf pair him with HRHs mate Whispering Phil Neville. Gawd they were awful

Is there anyone out there who actually considers Phil Neville a good pundit? I think he may be universally hated by everyone.

Bland, biased, sensationalist, and loves the sound of his voice. BBC got the wrong brother.
