    I just checked their schedule, and what in the ****, they're showing Liverpool's game over ours? Who would want to watch Liverpool's game over ours, from a neutrals view? What a bunch of turds, talk about pro-Liverpool.

    It's there first year back in the competition in 5 years so I guess they figure people will be interested to see how they fare on there return.

    Us vs Dortmund seems an annual fixture :p

    Do ITV or Sky get first choice?

    It's always been that way, and until everyone involved with football in the 80s is gone it will stay that way, no point even thinking about it

    Not being biased but us v Dortmund is a big and exciting game and should be the game to show. Also, who the F are Liverpool playing? Never heard of Ludo whatever their name is....

    I guess the next time you and Liverpool play on a Tuesday they will go for you guys. On the face of it, it is a strange decision, Pool should win easily, whereas your game is a genuine 50:50 (imo) that neutrals would prefer. They might be saving the Galatasary game (last game in the group) as a potential winner takes all?

    Sky is better than ITV anyway, so I'm pleased.

    I can understand Liverpools 1st CL game for ages being of interest - but tbh their game is a dead rubber and will unlikely to be very high quality. Whereas the other game is between a recent CL finalist and a perennial Quarter Finalist and should be very competitive and the other recent ones have been of high quality. Surely it would be better to have this one on now and show Liverpools next game?

    Don't panic do you have Sky1? They are showing your next Champions League game VS Galatasaray

    ITV will nearly always pick Utd or Liverpool if they can, whatever the competition. They are only interested in ratings (those 2 rate higher on ITV, always have) and don't give a f** about the quality of the game TBF.

    Sky arn't much better as they are showing Pool at home to Boro in the COC!!
