Sutton United’s biggest game in their history against Leeds United has got TV viewers seething
Sutton United are aiming to take a huge scalp in their quest to progress to the fifth round of the FA Cup.
SUTTON UNITED were supposed to give their fans a day to remember when they reached the fourth round of the FA Cup to face Leeds United at home.
Its arguably the biggest game in their history but fans at home are struggling to watch the game as the rain pelts the camera lens, and there does not appear to be a wipe on hand.
Fans flooded on to social media to vent their frustration at the smeared view on their television screens, fans not able to attend the game thought the comfort of watching the FA Cup match at home would mean they would not be affected by the adverse weather.
It does not appear to be the case, with some fans even asking if the camera man had wiped Vaseline on the lens, the match looks like if you were waiting for your car windscreen to clear, after the heating has been turned up to the max.
You could even be forgiven for thinking it was a trick Specsavers commercial, but unfortunately its not, the quality of the camera work is just that bad.
There doesn't appear to be any sort of a cloth or a cameraman's sleeve to just relieve the tensions in football fan's homes.
