I've seen comments about football in TV and I hate that we've reached a point where you have to have about six different subscriptions to watch half of football matches. This isn't good for anybody. 

PL and EFL should be forced legislatively to have 100% of matches available via one service provider. If you can watch every game overseas it is just another example of ordinary Brits being screwed.

You know what we need to solve this, someone needs to put up a flag.

Sundays games should be binned always dull just play games Saturday 3pm 5.30pm or 8pm

For me there’s absolutely no reason a football match should be played at 8pm on a Saturday, not in England anyway.

Absolutely, 3pm ko are still the holy grail. Love a midweek night game as well. But the rest of them, rubbish Sundays are the worst. Crap transport completely ruins a decent day of rest.

 

Have to say and maybe it's old age but I now find Friday night a pain as well. As a younger lad, leaving work town, football and back into town would have been a dream. But now after a week at work I'd rather just be down the local and rock up at home when the takeaway arrives. Sad really.

Always feel night games have a good atmosphere, don't really see the issue in it.

Controversial opinion but I don't mind Saturday 12:30 games, especially away. Means you get back home early. A Friday night home game is also good as you get your whole weekend free without getting it in the neck from the missus.

It's fine if you're the home side, or maybe an hour away as the away side. Any further than that and it's poor for the away fans travelling until stupid hours of Sunday.

Home games, yeah I miss 3pms, away games - no, nicer to have more TV slots to watch us on. But that's a totally personal preference and I can't have the best of both worlds. Understand why you'd want more 3pms if you followed us away from home though for sure.

Friday nights are horrible if you travel any distance.  Saturday nights mess up the weekend. I can live with the rest.  

Plus having to leave early cos the kids have got to be at school the next day.

I have been using IPTV for ten years at a cost of around $125 Canadian.  I get all the English games from National to Premier League as well English cups & European games
