I wish someone would just post ALL the fixures, with all the kickoff times in BST.

[Fernandinho]

OMG complaining about 12 15 am. In the World cup that was one of the earlier kick off times for us...

[Mr Darko]

Looks like ESPN is the only channel showing the games live in the UK.

For anyone that has ESPN it is there a minimum period? like 6 months/year as I just want it for July to watch the Copa America and then cancel it...thanks!

[RedReet]

FFS, the first summer I cancel ESPN they have something good on. I'll no doubt renew it, but for those streaming...

[Neil Young]

Argentina's squad has seven forwards?

[Neil Young]

Although I suppose it's possible that Di Maria and Lavezzi might be labelled midfielders if they were in an England squad...

Key point. The broadcast priorities are for Europe, what with it being the biggest audience.

[Fernandinho]

That doesn't really make a difference to what I was saying? I was more commenting at you whinging at a 12.15 kick off when we were dealing with 2.30 kick offs for the world cup and later

[Craig_H]

Yeah i know, but i was just pointing out why the KO times are usually ideal for us where we are, and not great for you.

I'm not sure on this but I think you can get a month by month subscription though Top-Up TV Freeview.

Right, as far as i am aware, the following is all correct - if anyone spots any errors, please let me know and i will amend it. All times below are according to British Summer Time (BST). UK Broadcast will be via ESPN.

Just checking my planner and it seems like Setanta have half the rights and ESPN aren't showing all matches.

Just checking my planner and it seems like Setanta have half the rights and ESPN aren't showing all matches.

That cant be right though, because Setanta isnt a UK broadcaster.

Are you based in Ireland? In which case, the rights may be shared.

In the UK, Setanta no longer exists.
