£6.7 Billion over 4 seasons. From 2025/26. 270 televised game per season. Sunday 2pm games will be shown. Saturday’s 3pm still blacked out. The club will still plea poverty every January transfer window.!

"So same as except the extra Sun 2pm games. I get all of them anyway so no difference to me. Is Friday and Saturday night football in the UK popular, seems to me like it's never really took off?"

"Presumably the 70 extra games will just be the simultaneous Sunday and midweek ones then, so there won't actually be loads more to watch and it won't change much in terms of match scheduling? Would make sense as money wise it's only a 4% per annum rise on the current deal and there are 35% more matches being shown."

Pleased to see its just Sky and TNT and they have binned Amazon Prime. Ludicrous that you needed 3 separate providers to see every televised match. That was of no benefit to fans. Was watching SSN and they said the 2pm Sunday coverage was great as people would have been able to watch Liverpool v Fulham rather than being 'STUCK' with West Ham v Palace.
