Hi all,

I have an official sub to Scandinavian Viasat. On Saturday when I sat down to watch thefooty I was able to get a match on the PLTV channel ok but there was no matcheson the Xtra PL channels. All I got wasthe premier league lion and messages in Danish and Swedish. I spoke to my Danish contact and he saidthat thanks to an EU ruling last week Viasat are now only allowed to show onematch at any one time- meaning that the Xtra channels are now redundant!!


Has anyone else heard this?

Thanks,

Trev
 
I think there is something about this in the "Football & The Law" section.

The extra games are no longer available via satellite - blame FAPL. One game is all you will get from now on.
