BirminghamFox Posted 28 May 2020 Posted 28 May 2020 I wish they’d hurry up and get the schedule released so I can book my train ticket and meet the lads in the pub before the game!
Collymore Posted 28 May 2020 Posted 28 May 2020 I'm just glad ITV don't get a chance to make a mess of things.

I’d of told them not to bother Presume BT are getting the rest Yeah so do I but feel like they’ve been shafted only getting 4. You know they’ll be games like Palace v Burnley as well don’t you.
Gravel Posted 28 May 2020 Posted 28 May 2020 BT Sport have announced they will be showing 20 games, Amazon will show four and 64 games will be on Sky https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/11731899/premier-league-return-confirmed-new-kick-off-times-bbc-free-games/

Hope there's a red-button option for piped in cheering or such, or at very least the commentators going absolutely mental for throw-ins and standard tackles let alone goals I was watching Dusseldorf vs. Schalke and they were doing exactly that. It was kind of cringe.
Mullet1 Posted 28 May 2020 Posted 28 May 2020 5 substitutions, definitely think it’s needed due to the schedule. However, this will definitely favour the larger teams in the league like the Man City’s etc. Imagine the rotation and the subs that will be on their bench that are now able to both come on during the games and play the next games for rotation. Now compare that to The likes of Norwich

Now compare that to The likes of Norwich With no crowds needing to "make the train" or "beat the traffic", I expect referees to add on every second wasted for substitutes and deadball situations. It'll never happen, of course.

UniFox21 Posted 28 May 2020 Posted 28 May 2020 Dislike how over half of these games aren't free to view; they're planning to scoop in the money on subscriptions from the ticket and season ticket refunds I imagine. Tactic once again that sums up the state football.

As much as I dislike Sky, this is their contractural domain and without them getting their bread buttered every club would be requiring to pay back a huge rebate. I suspect they were exclusively contracted for 39 more games before Covid-19 (9 matchdays left meaninh 4 games per weekend which fits with their traditional schudule) and the other twenty five were not part of their original contract hence they are FTA.
Scotch Posted 28 May 2020 Posted 28 May 2020 Because the games are behind closed doors, they should bring back the old fan commentary. Inject some passion and banter.

Didn't consider the monetary value for clubs, assume that is the case then. Just sad many will potentially miss out on their teams games

ajthefox Posted 28 May 2020 Posted 28 May 2020 Bet the sky execs are jizzing themselves silly at home on zoom to each other thinking about how many times they'll get to say "AND IT'S LIVE" or some variation of it.

Whenever an important England match rolls over to channel 3 they ITV the **** out of it. Having Simon Cowell, Holly Willoughby and Keith Lemon deliver a message of good luck to England before the Colombia game in 2018 was peak ITVication of the national sport, nauseating stuff.
