[claretburns]

It has been announced all 32 FA Cup 3rd Round ties will be broadcast as free to air, due to the lack of interest in our tie expect it to be on BBC website.

Other than the 8 ties that have been selected by BT & BBC for screening, they are all still showing as 3 pm kick offs on the Saturday but that will change because of this overseas deal they have. In the last couple of years our home games against Barnsley and Peterborough have been moved to early kick offs for that reason.

It would have been nice if between BBC & BT they could have found it within themselves to show all non league sides game giving them much needed funding from the broadcast fee.

But then you have to accept that Man Utd at home to Watford is impossible not to be shown for these 2 poor broadcasters.

I hadn't seen the games set for broadcast until today. All the non-league teams are on.

BBC
Arsenal v Newcastle
Crawley v Leeds
Marine v Tottenham

BT Sport
Aston Villa v Liverpool
Chorley v Derby
Manchester United v Watford
Newport v Brighton
Stockport v West Ham

There were three all non-league ties in the 2nd round so three had to go through. I'd forgotten Chorley had made it four. They should have got that one on as well.
