Ah right, not actually watched either of those but I'd imagine so if it's exclusive footage of the club & coverage of games.

I never watched them but they used to be free on Virgin I think.

Can't find MUTV but found LFCTV and it's greyed out, looks like they're on the same path as the listing show.

If you're on Virgin I've got MUTV as channel 528 and LFC TV on 544. Both are greyed out though. Used to get them all free a couple of years ago. How I'd love to have BarcaTV listed

Found this article. Looks like Skys contract might be up at the end of this season.

Wow, seems a bit strange they'd bring in Sky Sports 5 for just one season... maybe a guinea pig test =S

Ah how annoying though, when I got the season ticket for Sky Sports it made my contract with Virgin extend for another 18 months or something like that from the date I took it out.

They'll still have Dutch football and international fixtures.

As far as I know Barca TV don't show Barcelona matches. Only games of our Women's and Youth teams.

Oh wow that sucks! Bit pointless. Saw highlights about an hour after the game on Sunday & assumed they'd eventually schedule the match during the days or live. Damn, that's a bit disappointing if they don't.

No idea. You'd have to check that. We were talking about UK TV coverage.

Indeed.

Even an English fan of a club like Man United can't watch all (or even the majority) of games through Sky. I'm guessing that's because of the shared TV rights. Just hoping the same doesn't happen with Spanish football coverage when the new TV deal is done.

Well of course you can't watch them all through Sky if BT if 2 of the 7 packages. But there is also the 3pm blackout rule.

I meant BT and Sky together. I forgot about the 3pm rule though.
