[Archived] Espn2 In America

[doctorryan]

Just so my fellow Yanks know: Last night ESPN and Fox S*o*c*c*e*r Channel in conjunction with Setanta concluded an agreement for "the Deuce" (as ESPN2 is sometimes called here) to air the early Saturday and Monday Night matches here in the USA. They will also do an occasional 10 AM (3 PM GMT) game on Saturdays when there is no early kickoff. That's 4 games on live at the same time.

Take note.

The HD was wonderful on the Deuce this morning. Switching to Setanta hurt my eyes afterward.

Thats great news! We just setanta so we can watch the games but if there's an HD game on I'd rather watch that then fuzzy setanta

Great news...apparently we're not in the plans though for the first set of games ESPN has selected...

Sat., 7:40 a.m. Chelsea vs. Hull City

Sat., Aug. 22, 9:55 a.m., Wigan Athletic vs. Manchester United

Mon., Aug. 24, 2:55 p.m. , Liverpool vs. Aston Villa

Sat., Aug. 29, 7:40 a.m., Chelsea vs. Burnley

Sat., Sept. 12, 9:55 a.m., Liverpool vs. Burnley

Sat., Sept. 1, 7:40 a.m, Burnley vs. Sunderland

Sat., Sept. 26, 7:40 a.m., Portsmouth vs. Everton

Mon., Sept. 28, 2:55 p.m., Manchester City vs. West Ham

Don't get why Burnley gets 3 straight games on there and Blackburn isn't included at all. Makes me hate ESPN even more.

Most Yanks would not even have heard of Burnley....
