The Saturday blackout is worthless is the modern age.
The TV companies are just rearranging the games around it.

In the age of the Internet, anyone can watch any match, usually for free too, so it's not stopping people going the games.

It's now just inconvenient for fans to have Tuesday night or Friday night or other games scheduled to avoid the blackout.

It's not about fans, filling or keeping the Saturday 3pm ritual anymore, maybe it was good intentionally but it's not fit for purpose.

I do like having games to watch Saturday/Sunday (Friday and Monday can just do one), but I do think back quite nostalgically to all games kicking off at 3 pm on Saturday and watching the bloke - I think it was on the Bullens side - putting up the HT scores and results on those boards and hearing them over the tannoy.

Confession at 12. Two minute walk to Crosby bus station and the 30C or 92 bus well in time for kick off at 3 pm.

Fantastic win for Wolves over Villa.

Goal at the death makes it 2-0.

It was and fully deserved. I think that win puts them above Savage's Derby County in the lowest ever points tally league.

Maybe the Premier League will sell those Saturday blackout games on their new Premiere League Plus live streaming service?

I think you're right, Eric.

The description of the streaming service planned for Singapore mentioned that all 380 Premier League games would be streamed live.

One day, it may come to the UK… but I think the truly antiquated blackout system still has a few years to run under existing agreements.

Man City take the lead in the last seconds of the first half.

Leeds will have to attack in the second half which should help City.

Brentford lucky to win today, 2 late goals disallowed for Burnley.

Draw would have been much better for us.

Top finish by Chermiti

2 super finishing from Chermiti, but Celtic so poor

Looking at some of the January signings in the Premier league points to a mixed outcome.

Rayan Bournemouth - stand out performer. Made a big move from Brazil, and looks hungry to succeed.

Semenyo & Guehi - top players, the transfer were guarantees to perform.

Brennan Johnson.- apparently hes been very poor. I thought he would have done well.

Connor Gallagher - doesnt look the same player that left Chelsea. Very pedestrian in midfield, he looks a shadow of the player he was before.

West Ham - splurged a load. Have made huge losses, and look to be in serious trouble come the summer. Summer ville, Bowen, wan Bissaka and Diouf could be sensible targets if they go down.

This is a good start: Palace and Fulham up early. Spurs squeakin some bum. Don't like that Spurs manager btw.

Brilliant strike from Iwobi puts Fulham 2-0 up on mighty Spurs...!!!

How was that a penalty and a red card for the Palace player?

VAR has become a fucking joke!

Fuckin Charlie! Makes it interesting after Smith-Rowe fluffs a brilliant pass in on goal from Iwobi.

I can't believe Spurs are working their way back in this.

Chermiti has scored 2 cracking goals today. He looks a right unit now, filled out a bit as well.

But those 2 goals he scored today were excellent, an overhead kick that went in like a rocket, and a good classy finish for the second.
