At least it's there, for anyone who has Directv of course. The advantage here is you can pay per game as well at $15.95. Which is something that was not available for the Cricket World cup...

Thanks for that site Ranjini

Comforting for when Im in the US.

Direct TV is available in Florida isnt it?

I tried looking, to no avail, to see if it shows EVERY game that sky would transmit, including Monday games? Do you know if it does?

Thanks

Yes, Directv is available nationwide. I can tell you what games they ARE having this weekend:

Sat Aug 16: Man Utd v Bolton
Sun Aug 17: Liverpool v Chelsea

Also a replay the same day at a different time. Nothing about Monday games on pay per view though.

Liverpool v Chelsea will be the one to watch, after Chelsea's £60 million spending spree.

If they don't win they'll be one pissed of Multi-Million Russian tycoon!

Another good source of footy is Fox Sports Espanol. I've just been watching this afternoon's Arsenal v Everton game on cable.

Shame I can't understand the commentary though. F-f-f-f-f-th-th-th-th th. Chris Waddle.

What happened to the show on Fox Sports at 10pm Sunday evening with all the Premier League highlights?

Was looking for it tonight - gutted!

The politcal TV presenter and journalist?

.... Or have you confused him with Jeremy Clarkson?
