I wonder what Fox Sports 1 is showing (MLB?) that makes the FA Cup game with Arsenal be on Fox Sports 2 and the other game on Fox Sports 1. Hull City-Sheffield United will be at the same time as Swansea City-Chelsea.

 

FS1 is showing Red Sox v Yankees. At least the Sunday semi-final game is on FS1.

Also (off-topic), RIP zap2it's functional TV Listings.

Good of them to include the Hillsborough tributes and YNWA.

Don't really agree with the relegation battle being picked over Sunderland/Everton on the main network on Saturday. Will have to watch in SD.

 

Sunderland/Everton may be a blowout win. The other game has more on the line for both teams. Sometimes, those relegation battles can be more exciting. Setanta would often pick them, leaving FOX to pick the top teams with the second pick.

Everton should beat Sunderland, but Sunderland is the only Premier League club to win at Everton this season. It was on December 26.

 

I actually agree NBC's decision. Everton will still be alive for a Champions League place (even if they draw or lose). If the outcome of the Fulham/Norwich City match goes a certain way, the battle to avoid relegation (essentially) could be done this season.

 

Eh, Sunderland's gotta win and they are at home and Everton's been one of the most interesting clubs to watch this season. The relegation vs. relegation thing sounds exciting on principle, but NBCSN's last 10am relegation showdown was a snoozefest with brutal football. (I think Fulham was involved there as well?)

Still, two people disagreeing with me already tells me my thought process is probably in the minority.

News coming in that Piers Morgan is coming into the studio for FA Cup coverage this weekend! Fox is crushing it lately. I die a little inside with each new broadcasting rights contract that they win.

 

I'm glad I don't have Fox Sports 2 now .

Regarding your first point Fulham/Norwich will probably end up being nil-nil.

 

I dunno. Fulham's defense is pretty awful, yes?

 

Fulham has allowed 2.24 goals per game and 10 goals more than any other Premier League club.

 

For most of the country without access to Fox Sports 2... the match will be on ITV in the UK. With a pretty simple IP switching application you can watch ITV's live stream here -- https://www.itv.com/itvplayer/itv

 

But no piers morgan in the studio on itv. Hahahaha!

 

In cases like this, I opt for Fox Deportes over Fox Sports 2 (I have FIOS and get both stations, but in SD). Advantages of Deportes: The picture is better, the SAP English audio is the international feed (no GuJo), and there is no ticker.

 

Wow - I didn't even think of that. Good tip.

 

I agree 100. Better sd quality and no gujo makes deportes a better choice than fs2. Plus the spanish speaking pre/half/post match stuff is better in spanish than english....and I dont speak spanish!

 

No FS2 in HD on Dish Network....not watching that blurry crap.....thank god for my iptv box, best money I ever spent!
