Live Saturday 3pm football

I remember when the English Saturday afternoon games were readily available on Scandinavian tv on a Saturday afternoon - except for in Norway until their regular (summer) season ended.

It is UEFA's Article 48 which states matches which kick off on a Saturday at 3pm are not available for broadcast Domestically.

As I understand it that Article gives member organizations the option to exercise such a broadcasting ban. Only the UK football owners actually do this (given they invented the concept in the first place) so its existence just serves to legitimise the choice of the PL/EFL/FA within a wider governance framework.
