Diese Premier-League-Spiele von Sky laufen auch bei RTL+

Irgendwie immer noch komisch, dass man heutzutage von jeder namhaften Liga jedes Spiel an nahezu jedem Ort der Welt live sehen kann (wenn man das möchte), aber bei der mutmaßlich besten Fußballliga der Welt geht das nicht.

Warum zeigt Sky nicht alle Spiele (live)?

 

Wegen der "Blackout-Rule".

3pm "blackout"
In the 1960s, Burnley chairman Bob Lord successfully convinced fellow Football League chairmen that televised matches on a Saturday afternoon would have a negative effect on the attendances of other Football League games that were not being televised and as a result reduce their financial income.

As a result, the FA, Premier League and Football League do not permit English matches to be televised live between 14:45 and 17:15 on a Saturday within the United Kingdom. Until recently, the FA Cup Final was an exception to this rule and was broadcast at 15:00 on a Saturday in May; however, the 2012 FA Cup Final was moved to 17:15.

Foreign matches shown in the United Kingdom are also affected by the blackout; Eleven Sports do not broadcast the first fifteen minutes of Italian Serie A matches which kick off at 17:00 UK time.

In February 2011, Advocate General Kokott of the European Court of Justice opined that the "closed periods" did not encourage match attendance at other league games.

It is, in fact, doubtful whether closed periods are capable of encouraging attendance at matches and participation in matches. Both activities have a completely different quality to the following of a live transmission on television. It has not been adequately shown to the Court that the closed periods actually encourage attendance at and participation in matches. Indeed, there is evidence to refute this claim: for example, in an investigation of the closed periods under competition law the Commission found that only 10 of 22 associations had actually adopted a closed period. No closed periods were adopted in France, Germany, Italy and Spain, or in Northern Ireland, that is to say, within the sphere of influence of English football.

To avoid this blackout, the last day of the Premier League, when all ten games must kick off simultaneously, is always played on a Sunday. The final rounds of fixtures in the Football League are also played away from 15:00 on a Saturday in order to broadcast live games.

Live radio broadcasts are permitted, both nationally and locally; these may be simulcast on the internet, depending on the broadcaster. Viewers outside the UK can still watch these games live on foreign broadcasters, thus creating somewhat of a grey market within the UK with viewers able to subscribe to or watch streams of foreign channels.

The Premier League and Sky maintain that, while grey market viewing of games is not illegal on the part of the viewer, it is illegal for anyone (such as a public house) to make such services openly available. This has in the past led to heavy fines for public houses in the United Kingdom which have shown 3pm games in their establishments. More recently, the legality of such fines has been disputed, and a number of Crown Court cases have been reported in which publicans successfully challenged the Premier League's position.[49]

In recent years, Sky Sports have shown a 3pm game in full, on tape delay via their Game of the Day show, with extended highlights of the other 3pm games shown after, on Match Choice.

The 3pm blackout was suspended during the 2020–21 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, when fans were not able to attend matches due to lockdown restrictions. As a result, the season represented the first time that all 380 matches in a Premier League season were broadcast live in the UK.[50] On 20 June 2020, Brighton & Hove Albion and Arsenal played the first Saturday 3pm Premier League game to be shown live on television in the UK, as part of "Project Restart" during the pandemic.[51] The blackout was reintroduced and fully observed for the 2021–22 season.[52]

When Cristiano Ronaldo returned to Manchester United on deadline day of the summer 2021 transfer window, many demanded an exception to the 3pm blackout, or otherwise its outright abolition, as his second debut was to take place at a 3pm match against Newcastle United at Old Trafford on 11 September 2021.[53] Others instead continued to support the black out due to its effects in protecting lower league football.[54][55]

On Saturday 6 May 2023, Sky Sports were permitted to circumvent the blackout for their broadcast of Manchester City vs Leeds United live at 15:00. The fixture was initially planned for Sunday 7 May at 14:00 but was brought forward a day due to City's UEFA Champions League commitments the following Tuesday and played at 15:00 to avoid clashing with the coronation of Charles III earlier in the day, and no later due to policing constraints. The lack of lower-league fixtures at that time also allowed the game to be televised.[56]

 

Nein, diese Regelung betrifft natürlich nur Großbritannien. Damit hat das Fehlen der Spiele beim deutschen Sky nichts zu tun - natürlich werden diese Spiele für den internationalen Markt produziert & angeboten, sehen wir ja jede Woche.

Wie ich gelesen habe, begründet Sky das Fehlen einzelner Spiele mit den zur Verfügung stehenden Übertragungskapazitäten, sprich Sendern. Das bezieht sich in erster Linie vermutlich auf die Sat-Übertragung. Ist in Zeiten von Streaming natürlich ein relativ "lächerliches" Argument.

 

Es wird ja bereits ein Spiel aus diesem Slot übertragen. Die blackout-Regel greift hierbei eindeutig nicht (wie du es auch schreibst).

Die Spiele, die nicht übertragen werden, laufen fast zeitgleich zur Bundesliga. Bisher gab es Konfi plus die Einzelspiele aus der Bundesliga - da wird man sich das bisher wohl gespart haben und zusätzlich die PL senden. Zudem sind die Sa. um 16 Uhr auch nicht sooo mega interessant.

250 kann man Live sehen. Rest relive - ist ggf. dadurch etwas günstiger für Sky.
