BT SPORT’s Ian Darke made a broadcasting blunder while covering Norwich vs West Ham today.
Commentator Darke was heard promoting BT Sport’s coverage of Manchester United’s match with Bournemouth – a game that took place a week ago!

Fans on social media were quick to point out Darke‘s promotional error.
One tweeted: “Did Ian Darke just plug last weekend’s United-Bournemouth game?.
“Someone forgot to change the script.”
One fan responded: “I knew I wasn’t hearing things.”
Others chose to have some fun with the gaffe.
A cheeky viewer tweeted: “Has Ian Darke just advertised Man United v Bournemouth? I’ll have a bet on that.”
It is thought Darke should have been promoting Liverpool vs Burnley on BT Sport 1.
His script supervisor might have some explaining to do!
The veteran broadcaster was commentating on today’s early kick-off which saw West Ham pummel Norwich 4-0 at Carrow Road thanks to four goals from Michail Antonio – relegating the Canaries in the process.
