There was no showing of the England game at match time was there" If so I didn't see it so watched the highlights. That was avery poor presentation even by previous ITV standards
I thought we had a right to see England games on terrestrial TV? |  | | |  |

Yeah I was surprised last night as I sat down to watch the game only to see it was on Sky. If there are one set of games that should be free to watch and help promote the game and inspire the players of tomorrow, it's the national team games. |  |

It is a pretty sad state of affairs the lack of sport on free or licence TV. I do wonder to what extent it is contributing to the lack of interest in sports from some of our younger generation coupled with the lack of focus in schools. Not everyone can afford the subscriptions, especially now it is split amongst so many providers. | | | |

This is a big problem for sport in general.
There has been some evidence for countries in Europe that when charging to watch sports commenced viewer numbers dropped.
In Germany that was cited as what caused the Germans to drop out of F! - Bernie E chnaged their minds | | | |

I'm not sure a channel that employs Piers Moron and Ant and Dec can sink any lower. |  |

ITV hold the rights to the qualifiers but UEFA sold the Nations League rights to Sky. The latter seem to have the rights to England friendlies now too. | |

I found this on the net-
"These tournaments, as well as England’s qualifying games, are set to remain on terrestrial, with ITV winning broadcasting rights to the qualifiers which will start in March 2019.
The FA told The Independent: “Under UEFA’s new centralised media rights agreement for the 2018-22 period England games will be shown on Sky Sports (Nations League + friendlies) and ITV (qualifiers + pre-tournament friendlies) for the four years.
“We are looking forward to working with Sky Sports. As has been proven by their coverage of competitions such as the Premier League, we are confident that Sky Sports will continue to offer an outstanding viewing experience."
“Euro 2020 and the 2022 World Cup will continue to be shown on BBC and ITV.” | | | |
