Already starting to look like they're only going to be showing matches that include BV,  Wolves or Sheffield  v The Others

Announce meetings that have been sheduled in advance then change them   , oh well missus can watch her soaps now

There are 6 teams in the League - you have listed 3(50%) so the other 3 will most likely make up the remaining 50% of matches to be televised - doh!

Just set my EPG to record Peterborough v Kings Lynn, then read on Sheffield website, that Wolverhampton v Sheffield is to be shown.????

So after the initial 3 hour programme which, apart from the actual racing, was introductions, explanations and adverts, Monday nights transmission was cut back to 2 and a half hours and a very scaled back production. Abby presenting on her own, minimal interviews from "Brando".

The new deal was greeted with great fanfare and while glad and grateful to watch live British Speedway on TV last Monday's match was a far inferior programme than what was previously offered by Sky and BT Sport. Where was all of the detail and analysis that was promised and going into greater depth... a lot of the programme seemed to be the camera scanning the... erm... crowd, playing Where's Wally.

There was also some atrocious direction with the age old problem of the pictures cutting away to a close up of the leader on his own just as there was a move about to be pulled at the back.

Just the one Premiership match on Monday Peterborough v Wolves which Eurosport are showing live at 7.30pm on Eurosport 2. ( main reason for this week’s switch so  they didn’t cover Peterborough at home 2 weeks running).Nothing on the 21st but then a good run of Monday fixtures on TV

It's Eurosport. It was always going to be an inferior production to Sky or BT. To be fair, considering it IS Eurosport, they're not doing too bad - although they do need to ensure they get the score right as it is a pretty key part of the meeting.

It was changed to Wolves so didn’t have to show Peterborough 2 weeks on trot. Eurosport seem to be useless at keeping their teams who look after TV guides and adverts etc updated.
