We might as well rename the FA Cup the TNT cup because that is what it is. And yes I will blame TNT, alot of posters on here were like wait until the deal and TNT might sell the first picks. Sorry but TNT are the worst company, worse then Sky used to be, at least Sky let Channel 4 show the Formula 1 live and the sold the England cricket world cup final to Channel 4. TNT have done nothing, they have bid for the FA Cup, taken the 1st pick away. I would bet that if a British tennis player got to the final of the french open they wouldn't even give that to free to air.
TNT have just on sold two matches per round of the tournament so you can't say they do nothing. Meanwhile Sky put in a knockout bid for exclusive rights to all F1 races before C4 had even shown their first race.
