A very insightful article and I've always lilked the 'Gruniad' football pages for a pretty unbiased match report. Lots of positives going into the new season.
The main point about overseas stations covering all games is that it doesn't impact on attendance at matches. Here Sky and BT have the rights to live coverage of only about 40% of PL matches, thus limiting the damage to season ticket sales and attendances that blanket coverage would threaten. The PL have to balance the health of the league against income from the sale of TV rights. I believe the new deal makes provision for "near-live" broadcast of virtually all PL matches, so it should be possible to watch entire games soon after they've finished.
thanks for the link Rob, a good read i think and quite balanced really especially the comments about improving our record on the road and also against the bottom six
the comments section is interesting as well, some bitter comments also, maybe col u mike or jonah has logged on?
I agree Rob, I think the vast majority of comments are favourable to us and the ones that aren't either can't spell Hootun's name roight or are QPR fans so they don't count.
When I was backpacking around the globe a few years ago now and was both surprised and absolutely delighted to discover that in many bars/restaurants in S Asia you can watch the Saturday PL 3pm kick-offs live (9pm with the time difference) which was something I was unaware of. I've subsequently found out that this is the case around many other parts of the world so it has always seemed a bit odd that someone in a little village in the north of Cambodia can be watching live Premiership football as it happens when we are (still) unable to.
I knew what you were referring to chap, just lately it appears that Robbie wants to argue the toss about everything that isn't explained in minute detail for some reason.

Er, you think I'm a human?
I thought that would be a compliment ............ 
I'll take a little bit of bias. More than we usually get. It'll just be nice to see someone who actually knows Norwich talking about Norwich.
indeed. on last nights show, apart from hargreaves, the other pundits were pretty clueless on us.
i didn't watch the bt sport preview but i'm reliably told it was a bit of a shambles. bland pundits who lack deep knowledge of the game. apparently, david james was asked about stekelenburg and didn't even know who he was! i think everything i've seen so far from them suggest it will be a tacky attempt to copy sky sports while the very thought of michael 'yawn' owen commentating makes me.... zzzz
owen was dull, david james was pretty dull
hargreaves was quite knowledable and macmanaman was lively. frankily they were no better than the MOTD dull-ards.
Of course they are going to take a while to get it right!, they are newcomers.
and as it's free this season as i have BT broadband, i don't really care
