ALL this month’s Premier League matches will be broadcast live on TV after a U-turn by the 20 clubs.
As SunSport revealed yesterday, a hastily-arranged virtual meeting of the 20 “shareholder” clubs saw them fold in the face of demands from fans and the Government.

The League had agreed to increase the number of matches screened live on TV this season from 200 to 220.
But that left 160 matches without live showing, including 11 of the games due to be played behind closed doors this month.
Now, following the furore, the clubs have agreed to change their stance with all 11 matches now shared between the Prem’s four broadcasters, Sky Sports, BT Sport, Amazon Prime and the BBC.
Amazon and the Beeb will show one match each on September 26.
The switch means a series of changed kick-off times this weekend.
