A-League switcharoo on FSC?

[cthomer5000]

I'll admit this is the first time I've either:

1) Watched an A-League game (other than last year's Grand Final) live on FSC or

2) Even bothered to watch the A-league games I do DVR


but FSC pulled some sort of unannounced switch-a-roo of coverage tonight. The schedule had been listing Queensland/Newcastle live, and instead they showed the Central Coast/Sydney game that happened yesterday.

Does anyone know if this sort of thing happens often, or if this was a rare event?

I've come to trust FSC's listings (unlike GolTV), so i was slightly surprised when the matchup was neither what I expect, nor live.

Either way I applaud FSC's effort to fill as much of their day as they can with coverage from around the globe.

I did see the game advertised on Fox Soccer Report one day and then they announced the switch the next day. Not sure if they announced it anywhere else other than on FSR.

There was no reason for the switch because both games were played as usuall in there shedualed time slot the only game that got postphoned was the one schedualed for Friday night involving Adelaide United who is in Japan competiting in the Club World Cup

Maybe it had something to do with ESPN360 coverage of the A-league all up for a American tunning in to the A-league in the middle of the night does it really matter that they switched the games?

FSC updated their PDF listings prior to the match...as they attempt to cover more leagues, the chances increase that their schedules are likely to have late changes.

I believe Queensland/ Newcastle ended up starting at 3am (ET) rather than the original 1 am. I don't know if this was FSCs error or the A-League reset the gametime. It looks like FSC decided to show a delayed broadcast at the original time rather than move the telecast time.

Best bet is to recheck the schedule closer to the telecast date.
