Welsh language channel S4C today confirmed they are in negotations to screen Cardiff City's F.A. Cup replay live on its "Sgorio" programe after last night's audience for the Bristol City F.A. Cup game brought in a 475,000 audience.
The percentage of Welsh language viewers is unknown but there's no doubt the overwhelming viewer spoke English Language only with Cardiff and Bristol supporters tuning. However, the station deemed it unecessary to have an English commentary option so I personally gave up and switched to the F.A. website who also streamed the match.
Only last week, Sgorio was reported as having a "zero" audience (officially, that means less than 2,500 viewers) so no wonder they're chuffed.
With replay prices confirmed as £20 for next Tuesday and fans having to find the same again for the 4th round game 4 days later if City win, I bet most supporters are hoping for another screening too.
