This weekend's Premiership Football
 

There are still 2 more premiership games to be shown on Sky Sports and one
more game on Premiership +.


I have checked the Premiership website and the Skysports website just says
"Match TBA"

The EPG still does not reveal which games are being shown

Anybody any ideas?

I hope the Arsenal game is on!


Brendan

PS: Roll on next season with a total of 138 games will be on TV....
50 on Premiership+
80 on Sky Sports
AND EIGHT GAMES ON FREE TERRESTRIAL TV!!!!!!

Is that right? I hadn't heard anything about TV rights since the initial
announcement (Sky get lots, BBC get highlights). 8 live games on BBC
then(?), has anything been announced about radio coverage and 'delayed
coverage/as live' rights?

Granted, yes, Arsenal do seem to be on every week for the last four or
five weeks, but we didnt have hardly any live games earlier in the season.
October, November and December were dominated by ManUre games.

I think you'll find that it all balances out.

Not quite. Bidders didn`t reach the reserve price for the matches.

I would rather see them then Scumchester United..... the game will be
Liverpool Vs Newcastle, if Newcastle win tonight...

Part of the contract states that each club must be shown live a minimum of 5
times throughout the year...

It'd be interesting to see if anyone has counted up the number of times each
team has been shown live this season. It seemed like only Arsenal, Man Utd
and Chelsea got a look in this term. I know they were the only ones really
in contention for the title, but there were some good looking games that
didn't get a look in. Anyone know if there is a place on the net that shows
this?

Start couting each team from here....

I haven't counted each team's TV coverage, but if would be intersting if
somebody could tally them all up for SkySports and Permiership+ coverage

Further proof what a bunch of ****s Sky are. They are showing the
irrelevent Man U v A Villa match on Sky Sports 1, but the potentially
history making Arsenal game plus trophy presentation on pay per view.

Doesn't that kinda depend on who you support?
e.g. it wouldn't bother me if Arsenal were only ever on PPV. Or not even on at
all!

From Premierleague.com

Chelsea 17 (SS 12, PP+ 5)

Newcastle Utd. 15 (SS 9, PP+ 6)

ps. I can see the Leeds fans wishing this was the real table. And if you're
a Saints fan, don't bother buying a PP+ season ticket if you're after seeing
more of your own side.

See todays 'Mail on Sunday' page 112, for an interesting table

Now that my original post has been duly corrected, I wonder when the extra
games will be shown.

For instance, last year, a typical weekend would have a live game on Sky
Sports on Saturday at 12:00.
Then on Sunday, a Premiership+ game would start at 2pm followed by a Sky
Sports game at 4pm

This became almost a routine in our household.

With the extra 32 games next year, its almost one extra game every weekend.

Anybody know or hazard a guess where it will be slotted?

I think I saw somewhere it would be early Saturaday evening, around
5.30-6.00ish, one of the reasons the terrestrials didn't want it.
