really strange day to have a (pretty uninspiring) triple header given there's plenty of live sport on free to air tv today

Watford vs Stoke and Chelsea vs WBA are 5Live games despite being in the TS time slot. Might help
![]() The package C slot is 1330 or 1415 So TS have Liverpool today It does however suggest that Chelsea v West Brom is package F as on BT but not TS The Watford game is suggested as an extra package D which is also R5 This also suggests that Southampton v Everton could be G which is also on R5 |

Unless we're wrong about the process, Boro v Chelsea is a first pick in Package D - I can't believe BT passed up the opportunity to show Man Utd v Arsenal.
The two Chelsea games that are possible Package Gs are Southampton (a) and Hull (h). I still think Southampton v Everton is a Package G game which would rule out Southampton v Chelsea, and Chelsea v Hull looks like it's been picked to fill the Hull quota. So we should be on the look out for another Hull game in the Sunday 16:00 slot. Talksport have now put Everton v Man C on their schedule So that suggests this is package C and not G |

Can't fathom why BT chose to have two, and Sky a triple header up against the F1 too. |

A fair few complaints on Twitter about the United game not being shown. What's the max in this package, seven?

Five in Package D and two in Package G. We think Man Utd v Leicester was the weekend Package G game for Man Utd, though it was switched to the Saturday due to the Champions League. Ultimately it comes down to Sky 'only' being able to show Man Utd 21 times out of 35 rounds.

TS have 12-3pm on Sunday, 5Live after 3pm, or that's how it was. When there's been a triple header in the past, TS have had the midday/2pm KOs
I found it odd that 5Live went for Soton/Everton over Man Utd, it must be contractual. And I was going to mention 5 Live doing Southampton v Everton rather than Man Utd v West Ham. I reckon in the past 5 Live would have done Man Utd even though it wasn't the game picked for TV. Now, however, I think 5 Live have to do the game picked in Package D/G. |

So why was Watford/Stoke at midday while BT had Sat lunchtime game (which was also on 5Live)?
TalkSport Live, the international radio service also did Soton vs Everton & given any outlet would always choose a Utd game over any other, shows the contract stipulates TV chosen games. |

The Burnley v Man City game was probably a second pick from Package F. As Sky didn't pick a Package A game, this meant BT could use the Saturday 12:30 slot rather than having to use the Sunday 12:00 slot. I believe that 5 Live have the midweek games and therefore also the weekend games from Package F.
We don't know for sure, but it looks as though Sky picked Southampton v Everton as a third pick in Package G - and chose to put this in the Sunday 16:30 slot - and then Arsenal v Bournemouth as a fifth pick in Package C (on TalkSPORT). The Watford v Stoke game looks like a Package D (fourth pick) quota filler and as the Sunday 16:30 slot was already occupied, Sky were allowed to put it in the Sunday 12:00 slot. An odd looking Sunday triple header can probably be explained by Sky's desire to fill some quotas. |

Need to have another look now

Also, if Everton v Man City is not a Package G game, that still makes me wonder why Sky passed up Leicester v Everton on Boxing Day. Perhaps the picks they went for gave them a better mix of teams at Christmas. Or perhaps Everton v West Ham in Week 10 was a Package G game. |

Hull play both Liverpool and Arsenal in February
Quota could easily be used then Think it would be a huge surprise for a Chelsea package to be used up so early Especially as Sky like to show all title contenders last 5 or 6 games where they can |

Southampton v Leicester January 25tb clearly bites the dust as a Monday game so I assume it's just replaced as some point at another time
