8th≒ on 5 times but, let's be honest we're not being showcased, we've been chisen for 5 matches against the TV favourites - Chelsea, Spurs, RS, City (a) and also Newcastle. These five are on 10, 8, 9, 9 and 7 times respectively. Along with Arsenal and United the most represented on the live schedule. Surely our away record proves a close match is likely which makes for better viewing. But you know they will always pick their favourites (who appear 60 times to the 50 for the remaining 13 sides).

TBF, the Newcastle game being moved to the Monday couldn't have worked out better for me. 28th is my Birthday and i'll be at Haye v Fury that evening.
I reckon we'll end up having a larger proportion of games in the second half of the season.
Not that I'm bothered like, it's only the aways I cant get to, and the Sportsmans has every away game on anyway.

Hate home games being shifted to monday nights.

I wouldn't want to watch them every week but I definitely think more of a balance is needed. Quite often those sort of games are better than the games between the big teams .
When do BT's fixtures get announced? I've got a feeling we'll be on there quite a bit.

There's a link earlier in the thread mate -- they're out!
Think I'll swerve this new BT channel, I didn't know that they only have the 12.45 kick off, very rare i'm in at that time on a Saturday.
me to its a joke
not much change there. no away games been moved, so no away games this year for me.....depending what the league cup gives us.
If someone could PM me a link for the other games that'd be great...
Cheers, just seen them!
...I suspect the schedule is linked to viewing figures. The teams who appear most are those that attract the highest number of viewers.
That's what it's all about - market forces. It's seems to me that a greater proportion of Everton's supporter base goes to the match than most of the other 'big' clubs, hence our TV audience is lower.
That's purely anecdotal. No evidence to back that up, but it seems right to me.
...that is probably part of the answer, but to be fair the viewing figures are probably global.
