Line 14:
''MOTD'' has been temporarily semi-retired on occasions when rival network ITV has outbid the BBC for the rights to top-division coverage, as between 1988-92 and 2001-04; the ITV version ''The Premiership'' covered the latter period but was regarded in many quarters as so poor (in particular watering down the tactical analysis in order to show adverts instead) that the BBC was able to regain the rights at the next opportunity and appears likely to keep them for the immediate future.
