Worst case scenario for the local news is probably a bulletin at 4pm (which might be welcome by staff after a long night!) although even if BBC1 end up with both matches in the evening they'll likely schedule something in the 7pm hour, but penalties/extra time may cause problems. To be honest for an event like an election it is something where you can sum up the main stories in 5 minutes or an hour, depending how long the schedulers given. The main news will be covered in the first two minutes of the bulletin regardless.

If it wasn't for there being multiple Wimbledon feeds that week I wonder how practical getting the regions to put out something live on the iPlayer for each region would be. I know they've done the odd mayoral debate, but far easier to do one or two regional programme rather than all of them simultaneously. Perhaps though a 15-30 minute recorded programme could be uploaded around 6pm which viewers could be pointed towards.

A lot of regions use the same team for the evening and late bulletins so staff certainly would not want an earlier evening bulletin in that case as it would mean an even longer day at work.
