The #CurseofITV still hovers over England ahead of #NORENG tonight. We have double the #WorldCup win rate on BBC (16/25) than ITV (8/24).
We have 5 wins in knockout games on BBC compared to just 2 on ITV (7 games each).
We've exited the last THREE World Cups on ITV.

While we got through the group with 2 wins on ITV, England's record in the knockout rounds isn't so good. 60% win rate on BBC1 but less than half that, just 29% on ITV. England v Doctor Congo this Weds is on BBC1 however. #CurseofITV ##WorldCup #FIFAWorldCup #WorldCup26 #ENG
An update on the #CurseofITV ahead of #ENGCRO tonight. I've now gone back to 1970, when games were first shown live & exclusive on 1 channel (66 was shown on both). Exactly the same number of games shown, vastly different results. 64% win rate in BBC, 27% on ITV. #worldcup2026

For reference, I checked TV listings in newspaper archives to ensure accuracy of what channel showed what game. Games broadcast live on both channels simultaneously are NOT included. Conclusion: the #CurseofITV is real! Please credit me if using these stats in newspapers etc

Terrible atmosphere minutes ahead of kick off between France and Israel at the Stade de France.
As it should be. Bravo to every football fan who has refused to normalise having a genocidal state playing football.
Governments don’t represent the people.
