How comes I am paying for sky premier league, yet the advertised live match is not on that channel,

‎11 May 2022 07:37 PM

How is it I am paying for sky premier league but the advertised live match at 7.30 is not being shown on this channel? Instead on main event, which I can't access?

I guess that's because that's the way Sky has decided to show this particular match.

@Mark39 @Well yes but why have a dedicated channel to show PL not having just that, instead putting the updated scores prog on. Probably more a case of sky trying to wheedle more cash out of people not subscribed to main event 😩

As far as I know Sky doesn't usually show Premier league games  behind the red button, they do for the Championship when there are multiple games on but not for the top flight.

@caesarome  I guess this is another situation of Sky forgetting to activate main event for premier league only subs similar to internationals in the past?

No idea as I subscribe to the sports package, so far nobody else has posted about this if this is the issue again.

@juuiinn Did you try and watch the Leeds - Chelsea game Main Event?

When this happens, Sky normally activate Main Event for Sky Football subscribers
