Chelsea game on TV?

[ShaunL84]

Why Is the game on December the 3rd not on television?

Because BT Sport are showing Arsenal v Southampton instead and I don't think Sky have the rights to show league matches that are played on Tuesday & Wednesday.

I don't think Sky have the rights to show league matches that are played on Tuesday & Wednesday.

Really? I thought the matches would be treated like any other round during a weekend. And records show that Wed Jan 1 2014 Sky showed a game.

You need to get NBC .....every single match is on, it's excellent!!

Can one do that when one is not in the US?

Because with our horror-show of a defence, it would have to be screened after the 9pm watershed.

Do you really want to watch us against Chelsea????????

Just what I was thinking. I'm glad it's not on!

 

[ShaunL84]

I actually think we have a decent chance against them

I think Boxing Day and New Year's Day are the only Tuesday-Friday league matches Sky can show.

This isn't acceptable, this is a London Derby.
Why is Arsenal-Southampton being shown over this huge clash?

 

[Winchy85]

Why did they show Aston Villa v Tottenham last weekend when it was the Chelsea v QPR derby?

They're probably bored of showing Chelsea smash midtable dross so thought they'd show Southampton play the scum off the park instead.

To who?

To be honest, I'd rather watch Southampton play than us.

A friend of mine - an Everton fan but all round football fan and certainly not anti Spurs (he came to a couple of games with me before, wore the shirt and sang the songs in support of us) said.....

Spurs are the most boring team to watch on tv now days

A few years ago Sky were looking to show our matches as often as possible - we were the best of the rest, stacked with talent and always good for an entertaining match. Now I can't imagine anyone who doesn't support the club being bothered about watching us play

Would this be quite rare behavior in the UK from fans of other teams?

Well UK fans wouldn't do it for teams they disliked - so my point was he has no anti Spurs agenda influencing his statement that this season we're the most boring team to watch on tv

I have a few friends who I've taken up to our games who are fans of other clubs and have got behind us over the opposition.

Yeah I get that. But I know for me, I don't hate Everton but I'm not sure I'd be okay with wearing Everton's jersey and sing the songs in support of them. I'm a Spurs Man.
