For all those 'Down Under'.
« on: May 06, 2012, 09:13:57 AM »
Last week Eurosport had a 3 hour long programme on the WBA v Villa game including complete game coverage. It seemed to be the AVTV feed with pre-match build up and post match interviews.

 
We are on again tomorrow night! (Monday):

 
 
Eurosport          7.30pm - 10.30pm
Aston Villa English Premier League Match of the Week
Aston Villa (England) - Tottenham (Great Britain)


Match of the Week?...Three hours of the Villa on TV!

(Wonders never cease!).


Good to be in Oz!

What a shame (or possibly a relief!) that it isn't on in the UK.

Bizarre that Aston Villa come from England and that Spurs come from Great Britain- why the difference? I suspect that those guys at Eurosport have been frequenting too many Dutch cafes.

Aston Villa English Premier League Match of the Week
Aston Villa (England) - Tottenham (Great Britain)



It turned out that the above programme was the one v WBA (repeated) but the Spurs one is on Tuesday 11am - 2pm and repeated Wed 2.30am.

It is the AVTV feed with coverage of the Awards Night (but nothing from Broad Street!), the reserves game v Fulham plus a lot of interviews.
