Is Villa away televised?

[Milltown1882]

Can’t find anything online, do we know if Sky or BT have picked up the game next Thursday? Going to be huge.

[Kevwando]

No

[wilks_bfc]

Not “officially” but it’ll be watchable somewhere

[RickyBobby]

No. Won’t be on TV. It is a huge game for us and huge in the context of relegation but that doesn’t bring the viewers and the money in.

[Bordeauxclaret]

I wouldn’t be surprised if they pick one to show after Sundays games.
It will either be us or Everton.

But surely they’ll have already used their quota of TV games? They can only pick one if they haven’t shown the number of games they’re contractually allowed to.

There is already Chelsea v Leicester on Sky that night

When did that get announced?
Not on the Live Games section of the Sky Sports website. Currently just a play off game.

Nothing on here either

Interesting, can’t see it being announced by Sky or either club.

This list from Premier League doesn’t show it either.
https://www.premierleague.com/fixtures

Be amazed if they pick one of the three and it’s that one.

[Bordeauxclaret]

But surely they’ll have already used their quota of TV games? They can only pick one if they haven’t shown the number of games they’re contractually allowed to.

There is definitely one scheduled to be shown. Just a case of waiting to see which one of the three.

It’s Chelsea v Leeds, I’ve screen grabbed above from PL.

[lakedistrictclaret]

I wish Leeds did need to play Chelsea again, Tony!

Ha ha - Must have been wishful thinking

[martin_p]

Can’t find it on the Premier League site.

[summitclaret]

According to Fantasy PL it's on BT sport.

[Bordeauxclaret]

Like I said it may be the case, but given that Sky and the two clubs, as well as the Premier League link above haven’t announced it suggests it’s not confirmed.

[claretburns]

I thought with rearranged games if the original game wasn't selected for TV then the rearranged game couldn't be?

[AwayClaret]

There's definitely a game on just doesn't say who. I'd be surprised if it's Chelsea but probably will be.

[DCWat]

According to Fantasy PL it's on BT sport.

Doesn’t say that on mine. Spurs game showing as BT not Villa.

[DAVETHEVICAR]

League 2 play off semi final on Sky at 7-45
Second leg

[Bordeauxclaret]

Mentioned above, that’s on SkySports Football channel. Premier League game scheduled on Sky Sports Main Event channel.

Not showing on the premier league app yet

Strange. Still shows none of them as TV games on mine.

The TV guide on the Sky website shows that there will be a live game but doesn't detail which it is.

[CrosspoolClarets]

It should obviously be us on TV if Everton win at the weekend and especially if Leeds lose to Brighton as that would mean a win at Villa and we would be safe and Leeds relegated (assuming no 20 goal swing in the last game).

On that basis I’d be amazed of Sky weren’t hedging their bets, its only if BT have a game too that I can see them having to decide it early.

[Bordeauxclaret]

I wonder if they’ll show us and Everton now.

If it’s just one I suspect they’ll go Everton now.

[tiger76]

I imagine one will be shown, but yes it's more likely to be Everton.

[NRC]

It’s live in the US on Peacock, so it will be streamable somewhere

[FCBurnley]

It’s live in America if y’all want to come to ours

[DCWat]

No point you watching it - we haven’t a chance from what you’ve been saying

[AwayClaret]

Still waiting for sky to decide...

[jos]

If so, it will be listed here…

[Longtimeclaret]

So if it’s not on Sky
Is it “watchable” in any pubs locally ?

[FCBurnley]

No point you watching it - we haven’t a chance from what you’ve been saying

?

[DCWat]

?

“I don’t think we’ll get anything at Villa. We were battered by them at home with a stronger side available.”

[claretblue]

why thank ya kindly FC!

[FCBurnley]

“I don’t think we’ll get anything at Villa. We were battered by them at home with a stronger side available.”

I stand by that. Although we did a lot better today than I expected

[gawthorpe_view]

Unlikely, there's been a few local pubs hit with big fines for streaming games.
Many others have had cease and desist letters from Sky / BT Sport's legal teams.

Thanks for the response Gawthorpe
Will have to resort to illegal streaming at home

[DCWat]

Much better. Even discounting all of the injuries and the enormity of the situation, it was a superb performance. There’s a lot of fight and spirit in us and it showed in bucketloads today.

[KRBFC]

Of course Sky would chose a meaningless kick about between their precious Chelsea vs Leicester over the other 2 huge games.

[Milltown1882]

Sky Sports TV guide now showing our game as being televised.

[martin_p]

Yep, looking like it’s on!

[wilks_bfc]

If that’s the case, wonder if they’ll open fanzone for it like they did for the Spurs game

[claretburns]

Can't find anything online confirming the game but as Milltown says my TV guide showing Aston Villa v Burnley from 7pm on Thursday 19th May.

[Jimmymaccer]

Yep, now showing on SS
