Dolman_Stand Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 3 hours ago, Lanterne Rouge said: What we will have to keep an eye on is Sky`s interpretation of `sport returns`. Does the Sri Lankan volleyball championship (no idea if there even is one or not!) played behind closed doors count as `sport returning`? The Belarussian TV rights may be quite lucrative on this basis, can see the likes of Messi and Ronaldo rocking up in Minsk at this rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I phoned them to discuss my sports package in view of the lockdown I was denied the option to pause my account until sport returns. Same with BT sport.

WarksRobin Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 I paused my Sky Sports subscription last month. Just checked my account online and they’re charging me more for part of the month than for a normal month. I normally pay £20 per month for sports but this month £28! Of course I can’t get through to speak with anyone and find out why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no one on ignore as I like to hear everyone's input. PS I used to like Rogers post's and I also miss those great posters who sadly just watch games and read this forum from above.

Admin phantom Posted May 28, 2020 Author Admin Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 It looks like the first games back will be on Wednesday 17th June with Manchester City vs Arsenal and Aston Villa vs Sheffield United. These are being played first as they are the "games in hand" these sides had from the league was halted. Discussions for Spurs vs Man Utd to be played on Friday 19th June, all other fixtures will be staggered over that weekend to enable all games to be shown on TV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin phantom Posted June 1, 2020 Author Admin Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 I HAVE JUST HAD THE FOLLOWING EMAIL FROM SKY Whether a return from injury or a dramatic last-minute winner, there's nothing in sport like a comeback. Only this time, sport itself is coming back. The Premier League has announced that the 19/20 season is set to return on 17 June. With 92 matches of the current season remaining, Sky Sports will show 39 games exclusively live, with an additional 25 live matches available to all Sky subscribers. To celebrate the return of the Premier League, we will also launch new features to give fans an even more immersive experience and the chance to share the moments live with family and friends on virtual platforms. Plus, the drama and excitement of live sport keeps coming, with the PGA Tour and Sanzaar Rugby also returning in June. Don't worry, to enjoy the live action you don't need to do anything to unpause your subscription: • You’ll still have access to all your Sky Sports channels • Your Sky Sports subscription payment will resume automatically • You won’t be charged for Sky Sports for any days before 19 June 2020 If you have any questions visit our FAQs page https://www.sky.com/shop/tv/sports/pause/sport-is-back Please do not call the call centre as we are prioritising our most vulnerable customers.

Davefevs Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 So Sky had 39 of the original 45 televised games, meaning BT had 6. Sky are adding 25 more, meaning there will be 22 left, of which BBC have 4, so I guess BT and Amazon will probably have a split of the remaining 18???

Correct @RonWalker @Davefevs The remaining games are being shown as follows: Sky Sports are showing 64 games with 25 of them being free to air on the Spike channel including Everton Vs Liverpool BT Sports are showing 20 games - BT sports are still in discussion about whether any of these 20 will be free to air Amazon Prime are showing 4 games - Via a subscription service BBC Sport are showing 4 games - All games will be free to air In addition there will be an extra addition of Match of the Day each week BT have also announced subscribers will get 50% off of their next sports monthly subscription ALL PREMIER LEAGUE games will continue to be shown on free to air next season UNTIL supporters are allowed back into grounds as prior to the outbreak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are then there surely aren`t enough channels to go round. Well we know now what the kick off times will be for EPL matches: Monday 20:00 Tuesday 18:00 and 20:00 Wednesday 18:00 and 20:00 Thursday 18:00 and 20:00 Friday 20:00 Saturday 12:30, 15:00, 17:30 and 20:00 Sunday 12:00, 14:00, 16:30 and 19:00 The question is would Sky want to put an EFL game up against an EFL game? At best I can only see Sky covering fixtures when the live EPL game is being shown on BT, BBC or Amazon or Sky Pick so they have a spare slot then But would they want to invest in any more coverage at the moment? It will obviously depend on how many more games that Sky were contracted to cover But anything they do show they will want maximum viewing figures so I expect Leeds / WBA etc to be all over anything shown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Within reason, more coverage overall can only be a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
