Premier League Middle Eastern TV Rights

[opsmonkey]

The Premier League's middle eastern TV rights have been sold to Al-Jazeera by the owning agency MP & Silva.

Can't see the games being available on Hotbird 13E, guarantee they will only be available on 26E, no way the Premier League would have a repeat of the ART situation where UK pubs were buying $50 cards and getting 380 games live.

Keep an eye on 3.1? east with the new Eutelsat 3D bird in operation there now JSC can be picked up quite easily and this slot may fall under the Radar so to speak if they do decide to not have 13? east as there main slot

they might start a new muxx on badr5/6 and nilesat 102 that shows the epl only leaving the usual jsc channels alone,regards mdt

i do not see how they can put it on a bird with easy EU coverage JSC have MEANA rights and it would seriously P""""" off European rights holders unless there encryption is secure

As i replied to a similar post here we are again Al Jazeera occupy 4 satellite orbital slots due to Lybian Signal Jamming 'Old news read it here' Al Jazeera says Libya is jamming its signal - The National

Again it is up to Al Jazeera if they broadcast there new EPL channels for Hotbird they might and they might not, Again a question was asked but they are for the Middle east territories and again Hotbird's footprint covers the middle east territories

and to your question again " i do not see how they can put it on a bird with easy EU coverage "

How about the other 20+ satellites where EPL is broadcast and has as you say easy coverage including Hotbird which has Cyfra+ which has all 380 Games and can be picked up on a Zone 1 $ly dish cant get any easier than that, I wont mention the other providers as there are quite a few with the rights that can easily be picked up in the UK.

As far as i can tell and its still only speculation from LJ's that JSC Sport PL has so far only been listed on 7? west as mdt stated, if its 102 or AB7 you have a chance of picking it up with a very large dish 1.2m and above for reliable reception. If it goes to 201 then no chance, Then again who gives a hoot as its available everywhere else

I hope that clears things up

Yes, I scanned them in at 6pm , all scanned in fine. Just checked now, all saying Tune failed. Only SD +1 to +4 working now aswell. I had read this would be the case on Hotbird now, just the 1 to 4 to work & it seems to be the case at 10pm tonight. EDIT....3 East, only 1 to 4 working aswell
