Can't believe they didn't prepare for the eventuality even on sports news they said it was a poor camera shot of the trophy being lifted.

Took their time with the trophy presentation, took a bit out of the atmosphere taking that long

Rovers own media team had a decent spot. Should be some good coverage tomorrow once David has edited it all together.

Will never forget how dumbfounded Sky were when we beat Leeds in League 1 play off final. Build up to game was all graphics and fancy packages about how this will be Leeds triumphant return to greatness.

People who work for Sky get stuck for what to say or do if club has never played in Premier League before - or exists outside M25 ring road.

Check the BBC website for an embarrassing Bradford w**kfest - the league champions get a handful of grudging paragraphs…

Yeah, we're about the 7th or 8th story down with Bradford at the top.

Promotion is always the biggest story, but poor from Sky to miss the trophy lift on the live coverage. I remember Yeovil spitting feathers when we dared to win the play off final at Stoke and everyone forgot about their title win

 I went out after the match finished and recorded SSN and the ITV show and there was little coverage of DRfC. Luckily these days there is plenty on social media and the teams own channels
