My local team have just gone up to the National League and show the 12.30pm and 5.30pm games live in the clubhouse.
I do think that having Manchester United or Liverpool on tv at 3pm on a Saturday would hit my local teams gates with people staying at home - especially on a wet or cold day.
There are plently on non-3pm Saturday time slots available to the EPL.
Once you drop of of the EFL and EPL - remember that many of the players have non-football full-time jobs and have limited time to actually play games.
