So the long hoped for "Lets help English teams in Europe by playing Friday matches before " wish by the Managers

Has been replaced by Skys

How can we show our games as close to the CL games as possible as we dont have rights

Monday before
Friday after !!!!
It's got nothing to do with that at all. They have to show X number of matches in those slots and they are extremely limited in the weeks they can do that. It was no different when Sky had the Champions League, most of the Monday night matches were in Champions League weeks. Would be the same if BT had that package.

And of course I don't think Sky ever said they were going to pick Friday night fixtures based on the teams playing in the champions league the next Tuesday, even if that was a wish list of the managers.

The idea for Sky is to pick the best matches that they can, that suit them.

There is nothing wrong with playing Saturday-Tuesday anyway.

Champions League teams could play Sunday-Wednesday then, as that would give them a 3 day gap.

I hope Jose doesnt moan in a couple of weeks time having to play Monday-Thursday, especially after him moaning about no Monday games

UK TV, anyway. Given that it's the first Saturday 3pm game for United, I would expect Irish and US TV will be picking it up!

It won't be the first, most they can be shown is 29 times and only then if they are in title contention in the run in. So expect at least another 8 non TV Man U games.

Only an 8 day wait as their next game on Sun 6th Nov also 3pm is not on TV either, nor their game on 27th Nov so after a long run 3 non TV games within a month.

Assuming Sky save 6 games for the last 6 rounds in case they are involved in the run in, which 6 (min could be more) games from the 19 in rounds 14-32 do we think Man U will not be televised?

Sky don't have the rights to scheduled midweek rounds (that lists Everton v Arsenal on Wednesday 14th December as being on Sky) so I'd take it with a large pinch of salt.

Also has Sunday kick-offs at 13:00 and 16:00, not the more usual 13:30 and 16:00

Arsenal supporters getting themselves excited about Friday night at West Ham too early then, ha. Noticed the 1300 thing but not the Sky Sports midweek

Would also find it unlikely for 4 Everton Games, to be shown in a row

Rachel Riley adding nothing to the show again.

Surely it's time for the axe? Yeah she looks good in a nice little short skirt with her boobs hanging out with red lippie but is she worth what they are paying her??

She's redundant 99% of the time so I don't understand why she's on a serious football show??

SPOT ON ridiculous call from SKY to include her

Jeff wouldn't look so good in a skirt or wearing red lipstick.

Irish TV (Sky Sports) already has. The 3pms for Ireland are announced at the same time as the UK TV fixtures.

US TV show all games but Manchester United's match will almost certainly be the main game on NBCSN.

Whatever your views on the relative merits of her presenting the programme are, this post is derogatory and offensive. Horrible.

Can we please keep hates about presenters or staff on the Football Commentators Thread... You know I read this thread to discuss the TV picks and predictions, not to see hate at a female presenter and being sexit....

It was a dress not a skirt.

Her boobs were hanging out? I'm not sure what you were watching...

Still, you got the colour of the lipstick right...


That's a very strange attitude to women you've got there.

Package E has 28 matches of which 10 must be Friday.
Of the 33 weeks that means 5 weeks with no game.

Is it right that Sky have already missed Four weeks ?

If so that means they will have to pick one Every week bar one for rest of season ??

The details say a maximum of 10 on a Friday. Yes, Sky have already passed four weeks so in theory there should just be one more week without a Package E game. But I wouldn't be surprised to see a week or two at the end of the season with games on Friday and Monday.
