Man Utd v Reading??

Anyone got a good reason as to why this game's being shown live?

A has-been Premiership team at home to a struggling Championship team!


Loads of people "support" Moan Utd - so loads of people watch them on the telly box

Agree with all of the televised ties except Man Utd/Reading and Liverpool/Wolves. What do the BBC get out of broadcasting an all PL tie? It’s not advertising money. The Arsenal one is likely to be a bit dull as too if Blackpool and their boycotted ground get past Solihull. All that said I still don’t think ours is worthy of live TV.

The replay at BP will be on TV  


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Absolutely terrible choices here from the clowns at the BBC & BT Sport:

Man Utd v Reading? Are they having a laugh? What an awful excuse for a pick.


Only two are poor choices, the rest I thought were bankers.

I assume the Man U. game is because that will likely get the bigger overseas audience.

The Wolves game is really the only barmy one for me.

BEEB are showing Liverpool (and would have done ManURe if possible I bet) as its their only chance to show Premiershit teams live. Surprised they didn't go for Man City as well to try and get some viewing figures for sports dept.

It would be on foreign tv whether it was on here or not. This is just BT trying to grab some advertising money to make up 0.00000001% of the money they spunked on the CL!

I am not sure what other tie would qualify as an attractive TV option.  Derby v Southampton perhaps??

A PL team (United) home to a struggling championship side (Reading) for me is the worst but as has been said being United may attract an audience (Though watching that shower these days is even turning die hard United fans off). Wolves v Scousers...2 good footballing sides should make for a good game and is no walkover for Liverpool.

The others fit the general criteria of a PL side away to a lower division side and the (slim) chance of an upset.

Anyone who thought Palace v Town would be on are delusional. PL home to L2...........no one outside NE Lincs or Croydon would give a excrement.

Of course a replay at BP would be a different matter.
