Thx for that D410, probably about what i'd expect TBH, sky caters to the "big" clubs

...that is probably part of the answer, but to be fair the viewing figures are probably global.

But Sky and BT-selected matches are only about the domestic TV audience.

Newcastle on a Monday night again-- that'll mean they'll be bringing only 900 with them again.

Indeed. Although they don't have the rights anymore Fox did an ok job of showing the "lesser" teams. Your West Broms and Swanseas played some good games last season and were worth watching more so than some of the "big" games.

Clearly no relation whatever to last season's league placings. A mid-table side has the second most showings, while relegation strugglers like Newcastle are on more than 6th placed Everton.

Sky showing the teams who attract the highest ratings, NO WAY.

MickM86 · July 11, 2013

How are Liverpool on more than Everton? If it goes by views then surely we'd be around the same numbers as we live in the same city?

They are expecting crowd trouble scenes, or biting/racism on the pitch at Liverpool matches. Bad news gets ratings.

We don't live in the same city as a rule.

We all live in Bangor and they live is Oslo.

MickM86 · July 11, 2013

If you look at games like Man Utd vs Chelsea/Arsenal/City/Everton/Liverpool

And rotate each one you will get high viewings. Not as many for say Southampton vs Man Utd or Stoke City vs Chelsea.

Liverpool attract far more viewers than we do. Far more.

I think your onto something here, West Ham are on 4 times, and Chelsea are on 10 times. They are in the same city as well. Sky have cocked up, you best email them or get your Stubbs to have a word with Alan Myers.
