missed the England Goal

[PhilTheFragger]

We were watching the match last night at a mates house who has HD on a nice big screen

About 4 minutes into the match, We had a throw in, next thing we see is an AD Break, and when it came back about 20 seconds later, we were 1-0 up

Did anyone else have this, I feel robbed of the one moment of elation in the entire match.

Someone at TV centre needs a good talking to...

Fragger

 

[Dodger]

Robert Green had one of these Fragger....

Everybody who was watching on ITV HD sevice missed the goal.

But in my view that was the best thing in the whole 90 minutes!!

No mate seen it load and clear great goal,after the goal though why did we not see Gerrard in the box again thats where hes at his best just off the front two?

 

[Dodger]

Of Gerrard, why hasn't anyone mentioned he was 1st at fault for the Yanks goal??

 

[CannyFifer]

Missed the goal too, my mate gave me the code for ITV HD as we dont get it up here and all I saw was some cars playing football

 

[andycap]

I also missed the goal, i was on the golf course . It was lovely , i had the whole course to myself apart from a mixed fourball, a very pleasant evening .The longer England stay in it the better ,

Laughable statement,he chased and harrassed Dempsey who then shot tamely and Green blundered,how the hell is that Gerrards fault.

 

[Dodger]

You are correct,he chased around and was turned inside out without coming close to putting in a challenge and then let Dempsey shoot tamely and Green blundered,so firstly it was Gerrards fault.If Gerrard had done his job the goal wouldn't have happened.

Fixed that for you.

Yes. The feed was lost, so they put on an advert.

Bad timing indeed.

 

[HawkeyeMS]

Really annoying that wasn't it. I was watching at a mates and his 6yr old was watching his 1st England world cup game. I felt so gutted for him to miss his 1st goal.

I seem to remember that isn't the 1st time ITV have done that. I wouldn't have thought it was to do with a lost feed as I would think the feed is the same for SD & HD, they would just send out higher quality signal to the HD channel.

Seemed to me more like someone pressed the wrong button.

It was a pretty poor attempt at an apology too.

 

[viscount17]

where are the strikers when the only decent attempt comes from a mid-field player. for the rest it was pathetic.

 

[Robobum]

So getting back goalside, then not letting Dempsey get past him and forcing him into a hurried, scuffed shot from 30yds is now bad defending??

That's the kind of innovative coaching that makes Scotland such a force in world football, everyone else is doing it wrong!!

Quality laughs Dodger, I'd expect that sort of comment from my wife, along with how good their costumes look!!!

 

[Dodger]

Yes,but also ya Goalkeeper is what you call bad defending and quality laughs.

 

[Smiffy]

I feel robbed of the one moment of elation in the entire match.

I would have been more gutted if the USA had nicked a winner in the last couple of minutes and that had been blacked out to be honest.
I would have loved to have seen the overpaid knobs get beaten.
And now we've got a "tough one" coming up on Friday....Algeria. ALGERIA!!!!!
How bloody tough can that be???

I hope we get mullered 3-0.

 

[Robobum]

Yes,but also ya Goalkeeper is what you call bad defending and quality laughs.

Now that is 100% spot on.
