There was outrage on social media last night after Sky Sports appeared to forget Anglesey on their opening montage of the UK for Monday Night Football.

Viewers were shocked when the flagship football programme showed a United Kingdom without Ynys Mon in its usual place.

The programme, which featured West Bromwich Albion at home to Manchester City, was the first of the new Premier League season.

Anglesey AM Rhun Ap Iorwerth waded into the furore, tweeting: “Not being thin-skinned etc - just that Wales looks wrong shape without Anglesey - a body without its ‘head’!”

The glaring omission was spotted by eagle-eyed viewers Ian Parry and Robin Williams, who both paused their TVs to take a snap of the apparent error.

Ian Parry tweeted: “No Anglesey in your Britain!? Shocking! #Anglesey”

Robin Williams said: “Where the hell is Anglesey on your MNF (Monday Night Football) graphic?”

Another Twitter user also saw the mistake and tweeted: “Nice of @SkyFootball and @SkySportsMNF to forget about Anglesey in their graphic”.

Sky Sports have been approached for comment.
