Everton on TV in USA

[ChicagoToffee]

Just a question from a pretty naive native if good ole Blighty , but how much Premiership football is shown over in the states? Also how is it perceived by the American public?

None on regular, non suscription cable. ESPN is showing one maybe two matches a week but usually only one. Before they bought the Setanta leftovers, ESPN did do a passable job of showing Champions League matches and most major tournaments (Euros, Confed Cup) and their coverage seems to be increasing of late.

I get FSC (Fox Soccer Channel) which roughly costs me an extra $4 a month and they'll usually show 4-5 Premier League matches each week. They also run the Premier League Review Show Sunday nights so you can get your fill of highlights etc...

Most Americans really could care less hence if you want to watch the Premier League, you have to make some sort of effort to do it. The US National Team is rarely shown on any major network - I had to watch the US-Mexico WC Qualifier on Telemundo because I couldn't find an English language broadcast. ESPN will also shoo in a couple MLS games during the week.

Either way, there's enough Premier League being shown that my wife is had her fill. Although she did tell me as the Fulham match was winding down, that Everton would get relegated if they kept it up. On one hand, I was dismayed by her lack of confidence but on the other, quite proud that it's rubbed off enough that she knows what relegation is. I'm slowly breaking her down

Fair enough. So Dylan, who are you supporting NFL-wise?

It's a love 'em / hate 'em kind of thing. Thought you might said you were an Eagles fan then I'd really be worried for you.

Things are looking up for both my blue boys. Cowies come through last night against Carolina. Toffees look like they've turned the corner. I was nail bitting like no other. Billy looks out of place so far I hope he comes good. Saha is showing his pedigree.

I really like what Singletary has done there. If they can just get enough QB play, that could be the playoff team nobody saw coming.

I'm a Jags fan, and am suffering through another rebuild this year. Yout must be served, and all that. After all the years of stinking it up in Houston, it was good to get a win no matter how Houston fumbled it away at the last breath. They deserved to lose just for the ketchup bottle kit. (Kit just sounds better, doesn't it?) Our major problem is empty seats and blackouts. They were horrible against Arizona at home, but have been respectable on the road. Go figure.

Meanwhile there's a petition to get Lerner to sell the Browns from some fedup fan. They're the worst team I've seen this year. It's got to be tough up on the Lake. Here's the PD article:

I found Everton v Stoke on FSN.
Oct. 3, FSN, 10:00 Eastern

Oddly, the match doesn't show on the FSN website as being broadcasted but my Fios listing shows it and I have it in my record list. Hopefully, I don't end up with Hull & Wigan.

Will the Everton vs Bate game be shown on ESPN here in the US ???

Sorry I didn't see your post until late.

I will post all Everton matches, including European. I looked (our best bet was Setanta) but Everton wasn't being shown at all here in the USA.

But check here when you want to know about matches shown in North America.

On Fox Sports Net as opposed to Fox Soccer Channel? I'll have to check that out?

(EDIT: I'm not seeing it on any of the FSN channels but I will say that the match is on Sunday so it's possible that your system didn't update if it was originally supposed to be on Sat. but moved due to European commitments)

Correct. My system's guide has now updated and is showing Wigan and Hull at the time it originally showed EFC.

 

[ChicagoToffee]

I had Hull v. Wigan this morning.

No dice for the Toffees on Sunday it appears.

Tib -

Your avatar is still one of my favorite pics of all time. Closer for the Rangers this year, eh. Love that the Ryan Express is in charge - good things have to come from that.
