Fixtures - Southampton at home first

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

Anyone got any idea when Sky and BT will announce their early season schedules? If the Saints game isn't moved to the monday night, I'm looking at definitely (maybe!) travelling over for it.

Evening Jim...BT wont be announcing anything for 12 months as their deal doesn't start until after this season. As regards Sky/espn I think 2-3 weeks mate

Crazy because CL draw doesn't happen until sometime in August, we get a Sunday/Monday game only to be landed with CL away on the Tuesday or Wednesday or is that factored into the tv games before CL draw. ?

already factored in mate..they know the weeks of the champions league,league cup dates so are well aware they can't put any of the CL clubs on a Monday night that week. Same for weeks of league cup.

August 30th I believe is the draw...Sky physically cannot put a cl team on a monday night of any of those weeks.

Hi SHB,
Is that the perfect definition of crash and burn?

:-(

and the daft thing was that I had read that when the new TV deal was announced. Cue the Homer Simpson ''doh'' pic!
