It was tactical, her and her husband aren't into football at all, but do the show up to family things stuff. They came to ours for the Croatia game, but the 5 of us were having a weekend away at a caravan, so for the Scotland game she said she'd host that one, knowing we wouldn't be there She thought all the games were on BBC, so they could just watch on iPlayer on her TV Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be fine with internet only TV if it wasn't for live sports. It's 20-60 seconds behind regular TV which is really annoying. When NT plays you're in for a bad time here if your feed is late because people start celebrating goals. When I watch regular football, livescore updates before Internet catches up, which is also really annoying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob1981 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 We don't need sad montage music this time. Routine 3-0 win incoming. Just a shame when we eventually get to a final we can't really enjoy it. The draw opened up a bit and our opponents tonight had to go out to Baku and then we had home advantage and anyway Gareth was so lucky to get all these world beaters that any previous manager would obviously have won with as well. And we played so badly against Scotland ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_jagster Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 (edited) Both BBC and ITV's 1998 titles were great, some Jean Michel Jarre remix on the other side. ITV's effort this year is crap, Kiwanuka is fine as music but much too current/fashionable and the visuals are forgettable.

I really do like that song by itself (and Michael Kiwanuka in general), but it doesn't really suit the titles, and the visuals don't really scream 'major football tournament'. They're also far too British-centric. I like the BBC's effort more. Great electronica from Gaspard Augé (of Justice fame), the cartoons are very vibrant and colourful (if a little static), and they tell you straight away that this is very much a European Championship. In another thread last month, I looked at all the BBC/ITV titles since Euro 2000, and ITV won 4-1. Make that 4-2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the intro to a pre-World Cup TV show we had here, they presented the teams, their path in qualifying and so on. I recognised the theme, but didn't know where it was from, then saw the South American (I assume Colombian) with the eagle wings and the Scottish taking the penalty and instantly got flashbacks of that show. Awesome find really. Edited July 7, 2021 by Marius_R Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
