Sky Sports HD (High- Definition) TV
HD Premiership & European
football on Sky Sports HD
For the English
Premiership season
Sky Sports will be
broadcasting a
significant proportion of those
matches - 138 to be precise - in
glorious high-definition (HD).
Sky will also be
showing matches from the
Coca-Cola League,
Carling Cup and
selected UEFA Champions
League fixtures on
Sky HD.
The first Premiership match
will be Sheffield Utd vs
Liverpool on August
19th, with every club being seen
live by mid-October.
Vic Wakeling, Managing
Director of
Sky Sports, commented,
"All 138 live games on
Sky Sports and PremPlus
will be offered in HD. It's
something we've been working on
for a year, and the results have
been superb - the most exciting
development in sports
broadcasting since the
introduction of colour. We think
the Premiership - and our
subscribers - deserves this
quality of coverage." |
