ITV FA Cup fans fume at 'hideous' camera angle during ITV coverage at Ashton Gate

Football fans were left fuming at the camera angle during tonight's ITV coverage of Bristol City's FA Cup clash. The Robins hosted English champions Manchester City in the Fifth Round of the tournament at Ashton Gate.

Despite the entertainment on the field, it took viewers minutes to complain about the "hideous" camera angle on Twitter. Most fans noted how high the game was being shown from, with one saying he needed "binoculars to watch".

@Kre_13 said: "Bristol Vs Man City apparently been broadcasted from space." @sophiehatts added: "This camera angle is hideous #BRCMCI."

@TheWilkMaid tweeted: "Are they filming the game at Ashton Gate from the moon? #BRCMCI." @1CoryDavison said: "Thanks to NASA for bringing us live footage from the Bristol City v Man City game #BRCMCI @itvfootball #BristolCity #ManchesterCity."
