Ok, we may not be the Premier League next season (fingers cross that luck is on our side next Sunday) but earlier last week teh FA announced the new bundles for the next television rights for 3 seasons from 2013/14 season.
The rights are now out to tender with an additional 16 matches to be screened from the 2013/14 season, which the Premier League state will mainly come from matches already rescheduled due to the Europa League or police advice, rather than moving more 3pm kick offs.
The rights are split into seven packages - five of 26 games and two of 12 games. The maximum number of games any broadcaster can have is 116 games - so 4x26 + 1x12.
Full story is here...

Plus it does look as though they are trying to protect the 3pm KO's even more, as they are thinking about reducing the games sold to European countries from 380 to same number, and basically same packages, as seen above - ths trying to stop pubs from showing games from overseas (have they never heard of the internet streams???)
