Wonder if sky would be happy to allow out game not to be televised and they get an extra game somewhere else.As far as I’m aware once a broadcaster picks a game, that stays in place irrespective of when it’s actually played. I don’t think there’s any precedent of a PL game being selected for live TV but ultimately ending up not being screened.
The simple answer is because they couldn't care less about the fans.Wouldn’t think so but why the delay?
