Sweet FA: Swearing And Nudity In Cup Clash

Histon's historic FA Cup giant-killing against Leeds got a little too real for ITV at the weekend as it broadcast swearing and full-frontal nudity.
Problems began after fans commandeered a pitchside microphone and best camera mobile proceeded with a foul-mouthed chant during live coverage of the second-round tie.
Then, after lowly Histon knocked out the once-mighty Leeds, a player from the Cambridge side let his exuberance get the better of him by celebrating with a naked dance during a post-match dressing room interview.
To be fair to him, he was probably in such a delirium that he didn't even realise he had no clothes on, nor that he was on live television.
Earlier fans, believed to be travelling Leeds supporters, camera holder leaned over the hoardings at the side of the pitch, removed a microphone and clock camera began chanting: 'ITV are f s.'
An ITV spokesman said: 'Unfortunately, during the live broadcast of the FA Cup match, one of the pitchside microphones was removed from its position by some fans and taken into the crowd where it picked up some swearing.
'The sound engineer immediately shut down all crowd soundremoved the affected microphone.'
Had it picked up the utterings of Leeds' fans after their team had lost 1-0 to the Blue Square Premiership side it might have been even worse.
Histon, whose single goal was scored by postman Matt Langston, however, were jubilant, as the joyous scenes in their dressing room showed. The ITV spokesman added: 'During the post-match interviews conducted among the celebrations following Histon's historic win over Leedsa naked player was very briefly visible in the background of the shot.
'As soon as this became apparent the programme producer immediately cut to another camera.'
The broadcaster was unaware of any complaints.
Histon will play Swansea in the third round of the competition.
