I'm afraid as an avid football fan that I will be "doing the dirty" on the Apprentice tonight and watching the footy.

Which leads me to my question - when is the show repeated? Is it Friday/Saturday evening?

There's football every Wednesday. I shall be watching the Apprentice, Sky plussing it for the men of the household and then watching it again with them to find the bits I missed the first time. But it is repeated on Saturday nights.

We will watch the football - youngest is one of those never been to Manchester Man U fans - and tape (yes, we live in the 80s) the Apprentice and Adrian. Won't be able to watch it until tomorrow as it is a school night, so will have to stay away from forums and BBC breakfast.....

Have to be the football. Matches like this don't come along every week.

Watching football here and sky-plussing the Apprentice. Not that we support either team in this household. In fact, hate both of them but loosely would prefer Chelsea to win as we are Liverpool supporters. However, if that happens, Fiona Phillips will be unbearable tomorrow. I'm in a quandry now.....

Hmmm.....a lot of football voters considering this is an Apprentice forum! Looks like tonight could be the lowest viewing figures of the series by some way.

Some of us will remain loyal to the Apprentice ... much more interesting and entertaining than a few guys chasing a ball around a field

Oh my gawd I could never cheat on The Apprentice! Makes it a lot easier for me though as I hate football.

I'll watch uptill 9 and if it's a boring game, which I think it will be, then switch over.

My thoughts exactly, although I'm a little surprised at the amount of "crossover" interest -- not between The Apprentice and football, but between forum posters and football

This is an instance where we would benefit big-time from having a facility with a wide screen for the Apprentice, while the footie plays in a smaller window in the corner of the main screen.

When do you qualify as a fully-trained boy?

Love the Apprentice but will have to be the football for me.

Anyone know when BBC put episode up on website, is it the next day or straight after program?

cheers

The Apprentice is brilliant, but it's got the be the football for me. It's not often the Champions League Final is shown, especially when there's 2 English teams.

I'll Sky+ The Apprentice and You're Fired. Hopefulyl watch them after a United win!

The Apprentice obviously. I dunno why but I really find watching football dull.

You should be very ashamed of yourself. We will not tolerate Apprentice cheats on this forum! Scrub yourself clean, boy (if that is your gender).

I know it's repeated Saturday nights. Usually around 11 but you would have to check as it varies from week to week. Of course there's BBC iplayer though

Watching the football and Sky+ The Apprentice to watch straight after . Even if I didn't have Sky+, I'd watch on BBC iPlayer or a repeat. Very difficult to miss an episode these days.

Definitely upstairs with the Apprentice and daughter. Husband and son downstairs with the football (both Man Utd supporters, I'm a Pompey girl so still celebrating from Saturday!)

Hey I still tape too

My parents and cousins don't have Sky and I am always taping Lost for them. Can't give it to them on a Sky + machine!
