    Slightly off topic.

    Did you notice a brief audio issue on BBC HD during the match? A type of crackling/hissing noise for about 2 seconds. It seems to happen at randoms times on 135 on UPC.

    Yeah happened shortly after the start of the second half for me. Happened on and off for a couple of minutes then went away.

    I got a msg back from UPC saying 'As a gesture, we'll credit you for the downtime' whatever that means :rolleyes:
