Women's football is shit. Prove me wrong.
Just because it's better than mens football (men being used in the vaguest possible sense here) doesn't make it good.

It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
I wonder if they will be able to go back to showing just a select few games a week?
Now that fans will have got used to being able to see their club play every game live on tv, i think the league might struggle to change it back. It’s not like the majority of fans can go into the stadium to watch the game anyway even when fans are allowed.
Suspect this will be here to stay and it should be. The 3pm blackout is a nonsense and also in other countries, they can watch every premier league game live if they want, its not right that those in the UK can only watch the ones sky or BT say they can
doh
the 3pm blackout is to avoid lower league attendances plummeting in the UK - 3pm saturday is the timing of most games in the championship and pretty much all games below that. it's a perfectly fair policy which the people on here who bemoan the PL taking away football from its roots should applaud
but clearly, if people are watching the premier league in other countires that's not a factor...
A way around it is just to not schedule any 3 pm starts in the PL. As Ollie correctly infers, we aren’t too far from doing that already.
Also, just how much would televising the 3 pm kickoffs that remain actually affect lower league attendances?
I can’t see too many giving up attending local football to watch the big clash between Fulham and Southampton.
If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.
