    Honestly no, it doesnt annoy me, very few things do to be honest.

    i choose other things to annoy myself with (rubiks puzzles, arrow words etc)

    life is far too short to be worrying about it.

    so the BBC clled the fa cup by its full title.

    to say they arent allowed to endorse things would mean that on match of the day they would have to blur out all the billboards around the pitches and on the teams shirts.

    My point about this is, that some people who work at the BBC get gifts, commercial gifts after intentionally advertising certain products, as expressed by the recently departed and former Talksport and BBC radio presenter Mike Dickin, and many others that ive heard say it. They dont always mention e.on when referring to the fa cup, but do make a point of it when they have our attention, when someone is looking bang at the camera.

    We are forced to buy a tv licence if we own a tv or video, the least we deserve is that we are not told of commercial products when it isnt necessary. It is never necessary for the BBC to tell us the fa cup is sponsered by e.on.
