Will the Npower Championship be on Fox Soccer Plus this year? There wasn't any games on TV this weekend.
well they dont list it on the website I am starting to wonder if they have 0 interests in the football league and they got it just to put it on the online stream if and when they get that up and running or we will see like 5 games a season.
Huge mistake by The Football League to let the rights go to BeIn. Unless they can get it subbed to ESPN3. Suppose there was no room for The Championship on FS+ with Fox Soccer picking up the SPL. Guess their thinking was Celtic alone will be more valuable than Leeds, Cardiff, Brum, etc...
No the Championship would just get in the way of shitty rugby that dominates fs+. I hope next season fsc just puts spl and eredivisie on fsc and either ditches fs+ or keeps it all rugby.
I get the feeling FS+ is in big trouble this year. One Prem match a weekend? I hope beIN does broadcast plenty of the Championship, as there's no way I'd pay $15 for Fox Soccer Plus right now.
FS+ doesn't seem legit to me, plus DTV already has Europa League/Champions League scapes, I rather go to retention and get me a discount and then add sports pack for a lil bit...
Well, they've always had no more than a couple of live EPL matches a week - one at 10AM Saturday, and usually one on Sunday. Fox Soccer losing Serie A means there's one less *tape-delayed* match on FS+, since FSC is picking up an extra 10AM Saturday game to replay in the 2:30PM Saturday Serie A slot.
^^this I doubt there will be many live weekend Championship games on beIN other than when the glamour leagues take their winter break. Guess I'll be going back to my audio subscription on bcfc.com for my npower fix
Was it even on their Leagues page? DirecTV lists a generic match (Soccer) at 9:45am this Saturday -- I guess we're see if that's one from The Championship.
The Championship is still on there. I know that the Spanish bein should be showing the Friday match w/Crystal Palace.
Charlton v Crystal Palace will be on beINSports-HD at 4:30pm ET (delayed - right after PSG v Toulouse match). beINSports-ñ will show it live at 2:45pm ET since they don't have spanish language Ligue-1 rights. SA www.soccertvblog.com

These should be on the horizon for beIN... npower Championship Mon 24th Sep Blackpool v Huddersfield Town 2:45pm ET Capital One Cup Tue 25th Sep Leeds United v Everton 2:45pm ET Capital One Cup Wed 26th Sep Manchester United v Newcastle United 2:45pm ET npower Championship Sun 30th Sep Nottingham Forest v Derby County 8:15am ET
I can not complain at all, Milan vs Atalanta on delay Saturday, Genoa vs Juve live Sunday followed by a delayed Roma vs Bologna at 1240pm and then Torino vs Inter live at 240pm so not bad at all.
Do we know if they plan to play more npower championship games this coming season? Anything changed? Any online options?
