elevision coverage of England's World Cup qualifier
in Podgorica could be affected by a dispute between the agency that sold the
rights to the match to ITV and the Montenegro Football
Association. Unless the wrangle is resolved by kick-off, it could lead to ITV's
team and their cameras being locked out of the stadium.

The match, due to be broadcast by ITV in a primetime slot next Tuesday,
is expected to go a long way to deciding whether Roy Hodgson's injury-hit team
qualify for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
