The Beeb always take the all prem games as it's the only chance they get to screen premiership teams. sky are more likely to screen little team vs. big team as they show 2 or three prem games a month. Bit shit really

It's shite. Clubs who hardly need the extra tv revenue get it again.
I won't be watching any of them.......................(Well, maybe the Mansfield one)

The Beeb always screen the Man U games.

the fact is, most armchair fans follow prem clubs.hence why prem clubs are picked as the fixtures to air.the beeb are more or less giving the viewer what they want in this case.

But the number of non armchair supporting, license fee payers, probabaly outweighs armchair fans of prem clubs....so it shouldn't be used as a criteriion. |

One of the best FA cup games this season televised was Torquay V Yeovil.
People get bored watching the same sides on the box all the time: even the plastic mancs, scousers, gooners, etc, at my local have said that the draws being shown should be lower/non league.

Well it should at least be a mix. They're showing four games so 2 lower league (maybe against Prem) and 2 "attractive" prem games doesn't seem too much to ask. Exactly what excitement or interest are they expecting at Wigan v Chelsea? |
