Petition Action

Allow live Premier League matches to be shown at 3pm on Saturdays.

Additional Information

This is an outdated law that brings no benefits and is out of place with provisions in the rest of Europe.

There is no empirical evidence to suggest that fans will be lost from stadiums and will switch allegiance to larger teams. (See rest of Europe).

The people of the UK deserve the same level of service as our EU counterparts, it's time we stood up for this right!
