BT Sport has been slammed by subscribers after the broadcaster cut from a tense National League play-off semi-final to show the build-up of Manchester United’s trip to West Ham.
Chesterfield’s clash with Bromley took centre stage on the channel on Sunday afternoon as the two clubs battled it out for the chance to reach the Football League. The match was a thriller, too, with Michael Cheek scoring in the 99th minute to send the game to extra-time with the score at 2-2.
Liam Mandeville hit back for Chesterfield in extra-time and they held on to book a place in the play-off final against Notts County, who narrowly missed out on automatic promotion to Wrexham. But the closing stages of that match were missed by viewers on BT Sport, who were instead treated to adverts and the build-up to West Ham vs Man Utd.
