Liverpool, the joint biggest draw aren't in Europe at all so we would not be affected by your logic.

Please leave this stuff to the experts which is me.

Seriously, your analysis is wrong, and your posts are becoming borderline offensive. People are just as entitled to an opinion as you are, and being different to your own doesn't make it wrong.

As for your understanding of top picks you genuinely haven't got it right. Sky have the controlling pack 'd'. Bt might be shouting loudly about their top picks, but the reality is that they don't really have any. And yes, involvement in European competition is a factor in that.

When you say my analysis is wrong, you are wrong. And i'll tell you why.

The poster said that because all the big teams play in europe, that the 12.45 saturday slot will mean it's not usually them featured. But here is the fact. Saturday 12.45 games are not affected by the champions league only the Europa league. The only major team in that is Spurs, and they are on BT Sport a few times. Champions League is Tues/Wed, meaning they can play 3 or 4 days later. The Joint biggest draw (by that I mean draw, because we have the joint most fans and are also the most hated club so the most interest surrounds our fixtures, and we are on TV 9 times out of the first 13) Liverpool are not in europe, so we can play every week at 12.45.

So really no big teams are affected by this except spurs, and they are still on it 2 times in 3 months.

So please do not tell me I am wrong, when I'm not. i'm an expert in everything to do with football coverage, it's my life and my only major interest, and i am never wrong on any of it. cheers

we shouldnt have to put pressure on vm they should bleedin have it,Wasting money on sd tosh when they is a hd channel waiting to come on.Total farce i have emailed vm and also included universals replies,Probably a waste of time as vm still seem pretty clueless to what customers want

You forgot Swansea are in the Europa League and before you say it, yes I know none of there matches are an early Saturday kickoff.

yeah. I probably got a bit frustrated since i registered here only because i am never anywhere where i'm not surrounded by sport fans. especially football. where i come from and in the circles i mix, people who don't like football are generally seen as a bit camp and i wouldn't talk to them. not saying I won't talk to people on here, course i will. just saying in real life i would not talk to anyone who didn't like sport. people who don't like sport are into pop music, or gardening. flowers.

So it's frustrating for me to be on a place like this. I am only here to get news on BT Sport coming to virgin. was hoping for good inside news but none yet.

I said big club.

Doug P · 30-07-2013, 19:20

Think insulting football clubs should not be on a tv forum. Some think relatively all top flight clubs are big...
