England's World Cup qualifier against Ukraine on saturday is going to make history.For the first time since the invention of television and live broadcasting an important international game between two footballing nations is not going to be telecast on TV.
People at home who want to watch the game have to see in on the net at a cost of £11.99.
This is because no television network has £2 million to spare.That's the ransom demanded by Kentaro,the sports marketing company that owns the rights, to screen the match live.
Hence the fury...
