Last year it was 11th July for this announcement...anyone know when this is happening this year..i gotta make plans man..
Live Sky and BT Games
- Thread starter Robbo
- Start date
Word is it'll be released today or Monday at the latest.
The other bit of rumour I've heard is that the Swansea game will be on Saturday at 5:30pm.

Any idea when this will be announced.. Got my tickets for the Swansea game. Have to plan my flights. Hoping its not on Monday night..
found some thread on the net where someone said they'd been told by Sky it'd be Mon or Tue, but BT might take until 25th July!
Can't understand the massive delay.
Someone said they had "inside knowledge" from the clubs who'll obviously know the fixtures already, but didn't seem to have more info than City v Liverpool being a Monday night 2 weeks in.
Hoping for Swansea as the sunday game to be honest or I aint going!

The closed season is just so depressing that we latch on to any talk of football. And every one of those points you mentioned brings the start of the new season closer.
Blame that on last season. We're desperate to get going again, we were desperate halfway through last season.
imagine how it is without a world cup and 64 games to watch over 5 weeks!!
Mourinho has signed a three year deal with BT to provide analysis.
I know, I still have the nightmares. But no matter how much I've loved the World Cup it's still not the same as watching Man Utd play.
Yeah I got a bit bored with it a week or so ago.
It's great to start with, but there's only so many games you can watch where you don't support a team!
Yeah I am the same - bored of the WC now. I hate the BBC and ITV's coverage too, can't wait for my Sky fix to start again.
Nothing can beat Martin Tylers scream. (Except when he screams Aguero. That is the worst sound in the world.)
This post is at least a few days too late. Why you do this to me?
I imagine they'd want World Cup over with for a day or two before whetting appetites again with the TV list.
Are we there yet?. Some of us have got flights and hotels to book.....
..Just been announced.
Not seen the list but word in work is BT Sport have a few Liverpool games...
United - Swansea will be the first game of the Premier League season on August 16th at 12.45 PM on BT Sport.
Sky are showing all of last year's top 4 on opening weekend instead. That's City - Newcastle, Liverpool - Southampton, Burnley - Chelsea and Arsenal - Crystal Palace.

10 out of our first 12 games are on TV.
Guess they want to make up for our lack of CL..
Guess they want to make up for our lack of CL..
bloody sky and whoever lets them do this .
First game away at Burnley for me...on a fecking Monday night....no trains back. When are sky going to ever consider fans and travel.....going on the past 20 odd years.... NEVER. Its a fecking travesty and something needs to be done about it. Why cant they have the Monday night games with clubs who are not that far away from each other?
Err why should they?
Yeah, feck match going supporters eh
Why would they go out of their way to help those who aren't their customers?Yeah, feck match going supporters eh
how do you know the match going supporters are not customers?
Because they have gone to the match? And if they are such diehard fans who travel to away games its hardly likely they would be willing to miss a game when they aren't at matches out of principle.
what a ridiculous thing to say.
Most supporters who go to matches will most probably have sky sports as well. why...because the follow football. Certainly all the supporters I know who actually go to matches subscribe.
But if you think that its ok that Sky can just arrange matches without consideration of a match going supporter...(imagine the trip Newcastle to Southampton for example) then I guess you are a non match goer and just watch on TV.
For a match to be re arranged to a Monday night where the average supporter will have to take a day off work to do a 6 hour journey, watch the match and get out of the ground by 2200...then have a 6 hr journey back and most probably have to take another day is plain stupid. Whereas on a Saturday or Sunday this is not a problem...putting it to a Monday night is.
Sky never take the supporters into consideration at all...
Yeah read the bit below the part you bolded, perhaps I didn't make it clear enough for you but I would assume as you have that match goers will also have sky for the matches they can't view. Therefore if you can't get to the game are you going to refuse to watch the game or would you watch it on SKY? Seems a bit silly to suggest they would reduce their viewing figures to accommodate match goers hey? And yes I do go to games when I get the chance.
So as a match goer you should be up to speed with travel timings, work issues and costs.
Not once have you come in support of the match goung supporter.
As you have said...those supporters will already have sky so therefore it will not increase revenue.
Yup, do you not understand that Sky is a business and their priority is to make money through subscription and adverts? The more people watching the game on TV the more money they can make. They don't care its awkward for match goers. I completely understand and I sympathise but I'm not Sky.
Just to expand on your most recent edit, so you think they make no money from adverts? Do you think they place games on a Monday night to be an annoyance to match day goers? Its because they can maximise PROFITS that way.
Three of our first seven games on BT sport. I know a lot of people don't but I quite like their coverage so happy with that.
I have BT Internet, is BT Sport still free for me?
Away support allocation 2-3k ...hardly a difference to viewing figures.
At the end of the day it is just plain stupid to have a 700 mile round journey switched from a Sat to a Monday night that affects a 3k away support
Yeah. Because if you go to a football match you obviously don't have a Sky subscription. Even if, as a football fan you don't have a subscription (which is going to be unlikely but possible). They should still look after the interests of match going supporters. It's common sense really.
Ic an see others have already stated the obvious with this though so I'll leave it to them.
