Our game v Sheffield United is one of the games affected, and the ko time has been changed.
These will be the first PPV games since 2007, when Sky lost their monopoly and Setanta came in. At the time, Brussels wouldn't allow one competitor to win every package, and after 6 years, the Premier Plus games were dropped. I guess with the UK now out of the EU, they are now free to schedule them in any way they wish.
The next contract starting in 2022, should be up for discussion soon. I doubt the broadcasters are willing to pay out the same amounts to show games with restricted, or no crowds at them. But someone's got to make up the shortfall. No prizes for guessing who it will be. Us of course.
