ITV chiefs have apologised for an internal error which led to the entire World Cup final between Spain and The Netherlands being shown with no broadcast problems at all!
The channel which is prone to mistakenly cutting to advert breaks just as something of interest is about to happen in a game of football, went the whole 90 minutes and a further 30 minutes of extra time without once missing any of the action!?. This has upset regular viewers.
Dave Gantree of Grantham, Lincolnshire said ''When we really needed ITV to save us from the dross being played last night, they didn't deliver!. I would have killed to have seen a 'Go Compare' or 'that annoying Graham Taylor ad' but they let us down. I wouldn't be surprised if they did it deliberately........it's that Chiles fella......bloody liability he is. This wasn't 'The One Show' .......this is ITV, it's meant to be shambolic!. If I wanted seamless transmissions I'd watch the BBC.''
A spokesman for ITV sport said ''We understand many viewers will be upset at having to watch a boring World Cup Final with no impromptu advert breaks, all we can do is apologise and say it will never happen again!. Normal service will resume when the Champions League starts in September, and we are training extra staff the skills needed to mess up broadcasts and miss vital goals....once again we are very sorry, and we hope nobody suffered too much at having to watch the entire final!?''
