ITV & FA In Schedule Row

The Football League is to lose out on over £80,000 in television fees because of a decision to reschedule Sunday’s first division match between Portsmouth and Wolves, now to take place on Saturday. Difficulties began when Portsmouth defender Kit Symons was asked to play for Wales in their World Cup Qualifier against RCS next week, hence withdrawing him from the first division game.

ITV’s executive producer for football, Jeff Farmer says of the decision “we are very disappointed to have lost a crucial promotion match”.
