Be a bit harsh on those recording it at the game.... Bet they've paid more to show the golf so they'll be sticking with it.

Yeah, go to BBC HD Channel and hit the red button. There's an option on the menu for 'Live Golf and Rugby', then there's an option for the Rugby

It's far from intuitive

Get a grip, all you had to do on Virgin was press the red button and wait.
The KO is delayed so you've missed nowt.

If you've recorded the game then you would have set it up to record the next show in-case of extra time, wouldn't you?

I haven't 'lost my grip', no my virgin media didn't have an option for rugby.

Nail on head.

This is a minor inconvenience at worst. A disgrace would have been the BBC saying something on the lines of RL is crap, heres a repeat of trooping the colour.

Did people honestly expect the BBC to stop showing the golf at it's most crucial moment after 4 days of live coverage to go to the rugby - delusional.

Golf is a major worldwide sport watched by millions, RL isn't so why would they not show the end of the golf?

was the right decision - you don't pay to televise 4 days of a major sporting tournament and then miss the climax - how many times do programmes get altered when a football game goes to extra time for instance?

Can't understand why anyone is complaining about this.

It simply isn't acceptable to cut off the end of any sporting coverage on TV - even if the result is (virtually) assured. The BBC made absolutely the right call, and no live RL was missed as a result.

Escape out of the confines of your own little worlds and consider what you are suggesting here people.

I can count only 1 person (the OP) who's complained/called it a disgrace.

Are we having a match thread or is this it?

Bad scheduling by the Beeb but it would be ridiculous to switch away from the golf, as rubbish as it is, delayed kick off, a few people missed the build up to the semi, no big deal.

Anyway, come on Huddersfield, all Yorkshire final, lovely!
