Sunday, Goody Sunday...

I set off tonight to watch the boxing on ITV featuring Joe Calzaghe and some American guy called Jeff Lacy disputing the Super Middle-Weight Belt. They are both entertaining and explosive boxers but after the first 2 mins of the programme starting, we are all informed that due to this fight being screened in America the main bout is scheduled to start at approximately 2.00 a.m GMT...WHY?...Because it seems that everytime anybody fights against the Americans , be it a legal fight or an illegal war, it all has to be done to suit the American Television Viewing Public!!!
Come on the BBC!!! The License fee is due to go up again in April isn't it?
You could have bought the fight and not let ITV.
You Can Do It!!! So do us all a favour and show the fight at a reasonable time seeing as it is in Manchester!
As an after thought, I was a bit pissed off not to see Johnny Nelson fight on the undercard tonight [NB](Johnny Nelson had to pull out of the fight 3 weeks ago due to an achilles injury and was replaced by Huddersfield fighter Mark Hobson), being originally from Sheffield myself this was to me the Main Event...
So, there's no way I'm going to stay up to watch the fight 'Live' because it is fully Re-Screened at about 11.30 a.m. on Sunday Morning and there's not much more to choose from to watch except for Landward on one channel and John Noakes Does Sheep on the other...
Thank God for Sunday.... No wonder even the Almighty rested and stayed in bed on the Seventh Day...( The Sabbath)...
