FSF launches petition that demands Premier League, Sky Sports and BT Sport give six weeks' notice to fans over fixture changes for TV coverage

The Football Supporters' Federation has launched a petition calling on Premier League broadcasters Sky Sports and BT Sport to give fans adequate notice of fixtures that will be moved for live television coverage.

The fans' body has already gained the support of a dozen Premier League supporters' groups frustrated at kick-off times and dates being moved at short notice to suit television schedules.

When altered at short-notice, such changes are detrimental to the match-going fan who has to arrange or alter transport and sometimes accommodation at considerable expense in order to watch the match.
