As it says. Comes in a couple of seasons I think. They’ll have them all eventually and rule the world.

The packages each cover 20 matches per season. One covers two rounds of 10 midweek matches, while the other covers one midweek round of 10 matches and one on a bank holiday. It will be the first time that entire rounds of Premier League matches will be shown live in the UK. So it looks like there’s going to be a test of 4 whole rounds of prem matches covered by Amazon and BT I think to see the viewing figures. It’ll happen eventually but going by the low bid by Amazon vs the higher sky and BT bids it’s a little way off but the way Amazon reinvests to take as much market share as possible it may not be that far off.

I like Amazon and use them but I still always think of them like Omnicorp from Robocop.

Amazon have paid for two full rounds of fixtures a season - the first December midweek round and the festive Bank Holiday round. How long before they jack up the price for the month of December alone then? I can't stand Amazon, they should be banned in the UK. Thanks to the EU ruling that Sky having a monopoly of the Premier League was unfair, you now need to purchase three different subscriptions instead of just the one. It'll probably be 4 or 5 in the future.
Optimistic as ever |

Get a second hobby and leave the house If it's Palace and i'm not at the game I'd want to watch it, and as they have picked up the two full rounds package that means they will be showing 2 Palace games that others cannot. I couldn't give a monkeys about watching any other team's televised games, never mind every. I've got plenty of hobbies thanks and regularly leave my house.

I’ve had amazon the last 2 years for 3 months while ‘The Grand Tour’ was on, love TGT, but wasn’t overly impressed with Amazon!! Sound out of sync, didn’t find anything else decent to watch either, they’ll need to up their game to keep me once TGT has finished!!

I already use Amazon Prime so a bonus for me as long as this doesn't start to hike prices.
