    It’s annoying that they’re doubling up games this week. 2 games at 3 and then 2 games at 7, would prefer them to keep doing what they’re doing currently but I guess they need to have 4 games a day instead of 3.

    And yet if Sky had any rights you could almost guarantee that they soon wouldn’t.

    Thought the decision to have the last games kick off simultaneously stemmed from Germany and Austria playing out a draw to ensure they both qualified for the next stage. Maybe 1986?

    Yes it happened because of that appalling match fix job between West Germany & Austria, in Espana '82.
    Ive been enjoying the 3 games a day line up, but now its down to just 2 'live' games a day now.
