    Yes its the much awaited tie between Braintree Town v Tranmere Rovers in the first round of the worlds greatest cup competition (it sez here).

    ITV4 have been expanding their sport coverage generally but this is the first time a first round game has been shown I think. No doubt someone will correct me.

    Should be an easy enough tie for the away side, so its a funny one to show.

    IIRC BBC would pick a first round tie. Whoever won would be shown in the second round and so on until the big boys came in. don't know if they still do this. Would be good if the Irish stations showed that kind of interest in the FAI cup. Portmarnock v Longford is the last time I remember a non league team being shown.

    MkDonalds v Cambridge is the tie of the round. If they win they play AFC Wimbledon in the next round, probably the most genuine rivalry left in England.

    They showed replays before friom 1st round and sure this game was posponed and was due to be on UTV when it on 1st round weekend so ITV have to fulfil the contract with the teams.
