Have the pilot team be Millwall, have their first game be a friendly against Zenit, solve the crowd violence problem in England once and for all then brexit.

What will replace "sit down, shut up" and "sit down/stand up if you're xxx" if there's safe standing?

NBC is gonna require an extra 50 bucks per season to watch every match onlinequote:While the amount of games available on television will mostly be unchanged, NBC is moving 130 overflow matches to Premier League Pass, which will also include access to match replays and additional Premier League content produced by the NBC and by the league itself. Pretty fail if you want to watch Stoke vs. Palace with a hangover imo.

Shoren posted:So they're trying to capture the market of people without cable subscriptions by requiring a cable subscription plus $50? Am I reading this wrong? I think it means that the games are separated into "matches shown on TV" and "matches not shown on TV, available online". Currently anyone with a cable subscription can access both sets, and anyone without one can access neither. They're changing it so people with cable can watch the TV matches, and anyone can pay $50 to watch the online ones. If you want both, you need both.

NBC is incredibly dumb. I'd pay a couple hundred bucks a year to stream any match I wanted because I hate having a cable subscription literally just for football. But no, they're owned by Comcast so they want more subscriptions so no way they'd offer an appealing online-only option.

MLB.tv does this and it's amazing. The only reason I have Sling TV is for the premier league. I would gladly cut ties if NBC came out with something similar to MLB.tv.

We should all just get that NZ premier league setup they had. Every match, online streaming only, and it was like $150.

Just a reminder that the MLB.TV system doesn't cover national games as well as anything within the regional blackout so technically speaking this isn't that much different. I'd pay MLB.TV money for it if I got all the games and that point I'd kill my cable subscription forever. I don't even use it for anything other than sports anymore.

this is dumbquote:After four seasons of making online streaming of non-televised English Premier League games available only through its streaming platform for TV subscribers, NBC is ready to launch its own paid subscription package for cord cutters who want to watch those games. It will do so by taking those games away from the free-with-authentication Live Extra platform, and putting them exclusively on the paid platform. http://www.philly.com/philly/sports...v-20170627.html
