Damn ITV.

I have to say ITV have been usually very good with their boxing coverage. Sure we grumble about Duke McKenzie and Gabriel Clarke, but in terms of their repeat coverage - well its usually as live on Sunday afternoon.

Now though, with a potential 3 way boxing clash - SKY BOX OFFICE, Eurosport and ITV.... what do they do... no repeat on Sunday... bastard.

Incredibly short sighted and disappointing that ITV4 aren't doing a repeat on Sunday. Surely they must know Kotelnik v Khan is happening on the same night!

If the Eurosport is on time then it will be possible to Sky+ all three I think. Eurosport finishes as the Sky one starts - but they often over run.

How can you do this if non are on a terrestial channell. Doesn't Sky only permit you to watch one and record one, so how can you record onto your DVD recorder?

Eurosport is the biggest bastard of the lot, programs are never on time usually because the final of the world tiddlywinks championships have overrun or something.

Not doing much today, so I emailed ITV - sadly no plans at present to repeat the boxing.

Are you able to sky+ the PPV's? I was under the impression that you couldn't? I'm out Saturday night for the wifes birthday and this has put a bit of a Kybosh on what to tape
