!james Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Google, espn uk, search: FA Cup On 7 December 2009, it was reported that ESPN had secured the rights to 25 live and exclusive FA Cup matches per season from the 2010-11 season.[40] The contract will run for four seasons and all matches will be broadcast in high definition.[41] ESPN will televise two matches in the FA Cup First and Second Rounds (plus up to two replays per round), three matches from the Third to Fifth Rounds (plus up to one replay), two Quarter-Finals (plus up to one replay), one Semi-Final and simulcast of the FA Cup Final (on both ESPN and ITV) for each of the next four seasons. ITV will continue to have the first pick of the matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pride of the west Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 They are showing all wembleys games right to the final. Ie, if wembley lose then they televise the winners' next match and so forth all the way to the final. Believe it or not people actually do this. They pick a game at the 1st prelimary and follow it through to the final. The fa even give these people priority on tickets. Well they used to anyway.

Tall King Blox Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Can someone fill me in about Wembley? Big place with lots of seats with a village green in the middle ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pride of the west Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Yes i believe espn will be following uxbridge now. Wembley have been sponsored by budweiser who also now sponsor fa cup. They wanted to sponsor a team in the very 1st stage of fa cup and follow the progress of the road to wembley. so who better than wembley fc. and as such venables manages them in the cup and brings in ex pros. Kind of makes a mockery of the club in a way but im not even sure if wembley have even entered fa cup before now as they are pretty much like yate or if not further behind.
