I believe all BT's contracts have carried over. Goodness knows if we'll get the same level of coverage though.
Thanks Liam, always hard to find definitive details of this sort of thing. And we’ve had to try fairly often as the rights have bounced around the various channels over the years!
Will be happy if they still have the rights, but silence from James Richardson around the TNS Sports launch probably suggests they’ve chosen the budget option of just showing the live games….unless they get some 28 year old influencer to host the show….

To be fair, James Richardson was 26 when Football Italia first aired, seems crazy
Fingers crossed they keep the same format and number of games as last year...

That’s a good point Flotron! We were all a bit younger back then……
Mad to think he was a producer at the time and only stepped into presenting duties because Gazza couldn’t be relied upon to turn up for the gig….
They're still blacking out between 2:45 and 5:15 on Saturdays according to the sub heading What football is on TNT Sports?
How is that even legally binding, it's anti competitive. Plus i don't see why these TV networks are too lazy to figure out how it doesn't have to apply to subscribers outside the british jurisdiction.
That's a rule that was put in place decades ago to protect attendances at English league matches and primarily exists to ensure lower teams who rely more heavily on gate receipt money get better attendances. I don't understand why they'd apply it outside of the UK. I'm not even sure if it is legally binding either, or just an agreement which everybody honours.
I see that the monthly streaming pass is now £29.99...
Thanks flotron, great to have it confirmed that TNT sports will be showing the games at least.
Still no word on any additional studio shows to back up the Sunday night games, and if there was going to be a presenter fronted show you would have expected to have heard about it by now....but hey in the UK & Ireland Serie A community we're well used to good things disappearing from our screens over the years....
.
Did they really say that?
