Petition Action

Make all Premier League games that arent part of a Broadcasting deal free to air

Petition Details

Currently football is quite rightly played behind closed doors.We wholeheartedly support this action.

Currently 150 Premier League games arent part of the Broadcasting deal.

We call on Central Government to make these games available on terrestrial TV.

Additional Information

The current crisis has had a massive negative impact on match going fans. with many only having access to games in pubs, many are currently locked down or about to be locked down.

With 150 Premier League games not part of the current TV deal, it presents the perfect opportunity to make these games free to air on terresstrial TV.

With many fans currently sheilding, self isolating or in quarentine, making these games freely available will be the perfect tonic for our mental and wellbeing
