The announcement:
Two of the biggest football teams in the world are coming to ONE with Arsenal and Liverpool games being shown every week as part of a brand new 3 hour program with each club that commences August 12.
Over the season, the 3 hour weekly program will show every Liverpool and Arsenal match from English Premier League, Carling Cup, FA Cup and other competition matches along with match previews, behind the scenes footage and other material directly from each club.
The 3 hour program will air Tuesday and Thursday each week with the Tuesday program at 10.00pm and Thursday in the morning or afternoon.
David White, general manager sport for TEN said: “These are two of the greatest football clubs in the world and we are delighted to partner with them in Australia to bring fans not only their games for free, but additional content produced by the clubs.”

This is brilliant for those of us who don’t subscribe to Foxtel but are passionate football fans. There’s also a interesting angle here – looks like individual EPL clubs are selling their own broadcast rights into overseas markets. As far as I know the EPL has only ever sold broadcast rights collectively.

@ The T – been done before by other clubs, you’ll often see content from Man U / Chelsea TV on Asian channels, think Setanta have some rights too.

Of course there’s a lot of spurs fans here. We’re in… Sydney. Al Fayed presenting Mark Hughes to the press as the new Fulham manager “I’m sure this guy can get us to the championship.” I’m sure you’re right Mohamed.

The T – you’re right. It is interesting. I think the key is that they’re replays and not live. It’s part of the trend to have a “TV” brand attached to each club e.g. MUTV which people can subsribe to on each club’s websites.
Now that they’re making all this behind the scenes footage, they’re selling it on to TV networks. I think Setanta in Australia has the rights to Chelsea TV and maybe MUTV as well.
I don’t know if the clubs have to buy the rights to the replays of their own games before they can re-sell them as part of the package. Does anybody know?

Shows how much TEN knows about football – “These are two of the greatest football clubs in the world” at least opposing fans will enjoy the coverage of these two getting beaten!!
