Showing the EFL cup game and talking about great football over Christmas and only talk about EPL games nothing about EFL games! It’s like nothing exists outside the boring EPL. You’d think the EFL would have something to say about this! |  | | |  |

They pay billions of pounds to show PL matches - probably only logical that they would want to highlight PL matches over and over again. I don’t agree with it but I can understand why they continuously advertise it. |  | | |

They created the monster
Do any national media bother with football outside the three go to competitions? Prem, Prem, More Prem…taken mention of Scottish Prem and a bit of guff on women’s football. That’s all the BBC bother with now - as des the Ties which I have just leafed through. | |

The BBC website covers the EFL extensively. On matchdays they have live scores down to National League North/South level. | | | |

Sky have been heavily advertising our game as a top of the table clash. It even had its own advert running with no other games mentioned. |  |

I don't have Sky Sports as a majority of matches I am not interested in. Besides when Sky first started showing the Premier League you only needed them to watch all matches. Now you need possibly three different channels to watch all the matches. Competition is when you have the same item offered to you at different prices. All that's happened is the whole thing is split up and bid on, meaning the football association takes the highest bid. Leading not only to a viewer needing to if they wish pay three different subscriptions and thee rise in line with broadcasters costs. Then there is the timing of games to suit the channel and not the travelling fans or in some cases the team itself as with a 12.30 kick off Leeds vs Town. | | | |

I get that and a fair point, but they are pushing it in the programming of EFL cup surely they should be advertising big EFL games over the festive period! Maybe the EFL will sell itself and after Liverpool v Manure they need to sell the EPL again! | | | |

I think maybe you are missing my point .... in a programme about the EFL cup why not advertise the EFL games and not the EPL games. Plenty of chance to advertise EPL at other times in the programming schedule | | | |

Talk to the average person in this country and they haven’t a clue about anything outside of the Premier League either! |  | | |

But more people watch non premiership games every week than watch the Premiership at the stadiums. It bizarre why you would pay to watch all of them. If you have no connection to the club what would you get out of paying to watch Liverpool v Man U or Newcastle v Arsenal. I don't mind a live game of any team and will watch a local team anywhere live even when traveling. But loosing two hours of life watching Liverpool last week reaffirmed I'm not going to be a sky subscriber. | | | |

Not true. Click on the PL fixtures and it takes you to news of about the match. There are no links on Championship fixtures. | | | |

You'd have to add Saudi Arabia to that list now, actually becoming a far bigger problem. I'm no golf fan, but they seem to be in the process of throughly bolloxing up that sport for those who are. Heard on R5l last night that they're offering one of the top players £1bn (yes, that's billion) to sign up to LIV. |  |

He’s right, what you say is incorrect. All you have to do is click on one of the headers and scroll down an inch to get a huge list of options for every other single league, & then clickable links for every club.
You can then set your personal preferences so that when you're on the site, your 1st, 2nd & 3rd choices all show automatically & in order as a banner header - needless to say my current 3 are 1. Ipswich Town 2. Football 3. Cricket [Post edited 23 Dec 2023 10:53]
