Its to do with it being champions league the same night and games not being allowed to kick off at the same times

I think technically it is, as it was a BT sport match before the postponement.
Could still show it alongside both CL games I guess as they have enough channels.

No, but my suspicion is that it suits quite a few markets to be a bit later. 20.15 is 12.15 in LA for lunchtimes, 15.15 in NY, 04.15 in Hong Kong. If they got to say a 21.15 KO eventually, suddenly you're getting close to after work across much of the US, and closer to waking up time in Asia. Not that I'm cynical...

It's not popular in states. Sure I read somewhere that NBC only gets 500k viewers per match. Asia on the other hand has a massive audience and 8.15pm is Terrible for them

If BT have bought it ,they'll show it. Probably on BT Sport Extra so it doesn't clash with their CL content
Just checked - it's not on (UK) TV.

So you have to ask yourself, if it's not on UK TV as stated above, why the 20.15 ko?
Any time between 7pm - 8pm is pretty bad for the far east, but 9pm ko suddenly starts to get towards just an early morning rather than middle of the night. It's creeping out so we get used to it. I don't ever remember 20.15 kos, used to be 19.45 were the latest, then it's crept out to 8pm, now 8.15pm...slowly slowly catchy monkey...
Cheers. where did you check as both website's say its on BT they may need remove that ?
Well the Stats are off to Old Trafford.
Not been since Clive Walker tore them a new one and Paul McCarthy should have scored from a corner.
Has it changed much?

No. Oh, except it leaks more.
Sorry, I didn't ask that bit!
My best uninformed guess would be that by having an 8:15 kick-off slot the game is demoted behind the Champions League games that night, both of which kick-off at 8pm.
So, in the markets that have both CL and PL fixtures televised, people will have already started watching a CL game and are less likely to flick over for the Premier League game.
It's just a guess though, as I can't think of anything else!
