    probably nothing to do with uefa and all to do with the tv companies

    It was down to the champions league that we had to play at 6 if the match was to be televised. What I find strange is that Tottenham V Stevenage was on Espn at the same time as tonights Champions League games. Seems a bit odd to me

    The rule only applies to domestic LEAGUE matches and not cup games.

    We had two 6pm games last season: St Johnstone and ICT

    Rubbish law. Are UEFA trying to tell us that Inverness vs Celtic is going to
    stop Europe from watching the Champions League?

    Think it means league matches cant be played same time as champions league, the other games you mention i.e totenham/stevenage and chelsea/birmingham were cup games which i think is allowed, could be totally wrong btw, just my 2 cents on it :50:

    Only league games can not clash with CL matches. Cup games as in the last 2 nights in England can!

    The rules must have changed, the ICT cup game definitely wasn't on TV because of CL. I remember being abit raging about it.
