How does this work in the Prem? Is there the same 5 week commitment they have in the FL? I did look around the Sky website but couldn't find anything.

Good point.
The only difference will be new arrivals in terms of managers and big name players, which might make for a narrative?

Thanks.
I do hope you're right about Man C I come home from Cyprus on Saturday night.
I read somewhere but can't remember where, that the newly promoted clubs have to be shown on SKY 3 times in the first 2 months.

Can sky have the game played on the Friday 11th. I thought not and have arranged my holiday to arrive back late that night. Now I've read that they can. Anyone clarify this please.

I reckon there is a good chance that the palace away game will be moved for TV. Nailed on spurs v city will be on and I suspect Newcastle v arsenal. Hopefully it will be a) not on tv at 15:00, if I can get a ticket, b) on tv 17:30 Saturday or c) 14:00 on Super Sunday!

The Man City game could be at:
Lunchtime Saturday
3pm Saturday
Tea time Saturday
Sunday Lunchtime
Sunday 1600
Monday Night
Any slot I've missed or any that don't take place the first weekend?
I reckon it'll be the Saturday lunchtime game.

I think we can safely assume the first game will not kick off at 3PM on Saturday. We just don't know when it will be played.
So annoying - especially in the middle of summer hols.

Sorry, but what does this mean?
Still trying to work it out myself tbh, nabbed from https://forums.digitalspy.com/discussion/2224042/2017-18-premier-league-tv-fixtures-thread where they seem pretty clued up on how it all works. Tells you what days and times are set aside for the TV games and how many times we have to be picked in each package.
I really hope you're right about the Man City game, as I stupidly committed myself on the Saturday some time ago without checking when the football season starts. Any day but Saturday is good for me.
