A TOP British comedian has sparked fury among some fans after rescheduling his live gig so he can watch England's Euro 2024 final clash with Spain.
The star irked ticket-holders after posting an Instagram video revealing the time change - just as they were witnessing England's epic 2-1 semi-final triumph over the Netherlands.
John Bishop, 57, was set to perform his Back At It stand-up show at the University Of Wolverhampton from 7pm on Sunday, July 14.
Yet those expecting an evening of entertainment may now be sorely disappointed, with the set moved to the afternoon to accommodate England's 8pm kick off in Berlin.
John made his candid reveal on social media, with a video accompanied by the caption: "Regarding my show on Sunday evening... #itscominghome."
In the video, the Liverpudlian spoke directly to the camera as he said: "This is a message to all the people coming to the show at Wolverhampton on Sunday.

"I'm not doing the show at 8pm, the show is going to be moved to the afternoon.
"You're all going to get an email telling you the time.
"I know it wont suit everybody so anyone who can't make it we'll definitely give you a refund.
"But we are definitely going to move the time to Sunday afternoon cause there's no chance I'm going to be doing it at 8pm because I'm going to be busy watching these boys," before panning the camera to a TV showing last night's game.

However, some fans were left hugely unimpressed.
One commented sarcastically: "I wish I had a job where I could change the time I start, at the cost of disrupting a few thousand people, to watch a football match. Fair play."
A second quipped: "Good windup, because you wouldn’t be so inconsiderate to move your show to watch a game of football and for all the people that’s planed to come and see you for months just to screw them over, come on JB."
A third then mused: "I always liked you. Especially your attempt at the Irish Famine as your chosen subject on celebrity mastermind. But now sadly the journey has ended."
One then simply ranted: "Because of a STUPID FOOTBALL GAME."
Yet other footie-lovers were much more appreciative.

THE Three Lions' history-making feat has already sparked a slew of TV and live show changes. Here are a few:
- John Bishop will start his stand-up show in Wolves earlier to accommodate for the Euro's final
- Love Island was delayed due to the semi final - and likely will be for the final - yet fans found a way to watch it earlier
- The Killers made way for the end of the semi final by pausing their gig at London's O2 - now fans can watch the Berlin final at the North Greenwich tent for free on Sunday courtesy of a ticket ballot
One wrote: "Don’t blame you at all! Cos it’s coming home!"
Another posted: "FML some of these comments anyone would think you've just committed murder live on social media!!! He's changed the time of his show by a couple of hours, what is the issue??? Stop being such Karens and give it a rest."
Gareth Southgate's side will now face Spain in Sunday’s showpiece.
