showing norwich v southampton at 3pm , going overboard on southampton now 2 weeks in a row because of boruc in goal . getting silly already
I'm assuming you're not Polish? It's a Polish TV service which is obviously aimed at Polish people. They will have more interest in watching a match featuring match featuring a Polish player than most other matches (apart from obvious bigger attractions).
And they're not alone. In Bulgaria every Fulham match is televised - despite much more attractive-looking (to non-Bulgarians) matches. Up to last season this wasn't the case - before then it was Manchester United and it's called the Berbatov effect
Danish TV do it. Italian TV does it. And on. And on...
If we choose to subscribe to their services I don't think we have the right to complain tbh.
Having said that I have seen C+ Poland (presumably) change thanks to viewer feedback in the past. For weeks, once, their website listed an Aston Villa v Arsenal match. The day before the scheduled game the listed match suddenly changed to Fulham v Manchester United.0 -

Strange as i watched the Liverpool V Stoke followed by Arsenal V Villa and then the Fulham V Man united match all on Canal+ Poland on the opening day.
And I think you will find that Nowso is Polish?
What's strange about that and what point are you making (asking particularly because you quoted my post)?
And what season was that? It is very similar to this season's opening day too - the only difference being United were in Wales, not London. :P
If Nowso is Polish he does have some right to complain, obviously. But I know a lot of Polish (through work) and, to a man, they'd prefer to watch a match featuring a Polish player over most other matches. I wasn't making my point without having some feedback - and I'm sure Canal+ don't choose their matches for the sake of it either.0 -

any subscriber has a right to complain.
the time they changed match last year was when they had an online vvote ,
they dont have votes anymore
the games they choose are the 3pm games . the others were decided by ssky and Bt sport0 -

If you subscribe to a service not intended for you I'm afraid you don't have a right to complain - or at least you don't have a right to be entertained by the channel owners. Of course, if they choose to listen to the complaint, that's a different ball-game. Have you complained directly, out of interest?the time they changed match last year was when they had an online vvote ,
they dont have votes anymore
What match did they change last year, out of interest? Confused again because you appear to be responding to me.
EDIT: I do seem to remember a 3pm Manchester City match being involved. Was that it?the games they choose are the 3pm games . the others were decided by ssky and Bt sport
Again, you've quoted me on this one but I'm genuinely confused about why you mention it?
I'm well aware of the way the tv rights work and, fyi, matches chosen for coverage by C+ Poland during midweek matchdays have very often differed from those chosen in the past by Sky (and will almost certainly do so again this season when BT make their picks.)
Not to mention that, in the past at least, C+ Poland have often chosen not to cover some of the weekend matches shifted for UK TV coverage. Thankfully that appears to have changed - or is it because some other European leagues haven't started yet?0 -

there were a few votes the last one was which 2 of 3 games to show on a wednesday night . the early poll leader ended up last of three.
this year the are concentrating on champions league midweek , before that they would have shown last weeks chelsea v Villa game but as the Champions league is on they dont.
they sometimes diddt show one of the games set for uk tv normally the one with smaller teams , but that situation hasnt happened yet this year.
Thanks for the info. I'm still confused why you quoted my post though

It was me that quoted your post as I thought you were talking about the first match of the season. The way things are going now with all the picks and tv rights, the saturday 3pm's will always be poor enough matches. Then we enter the European rounds (Uefa and champions league) so we then have those poxy Sunday 3pm kick offs too.0 -

Ah right, sort of makes sense now (except the Arsenal and United matches kicked off at different times and I was talking about a direct schedule switch).
It happened in the midweek round of matches pre-Christmas 2011. At that time I had taken up a Canal+ Poland subscription so always checked their website for their scheduled matches. For about 3 weeks ahead of the match they had Aston Villa v Arsenal scheduled (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/16173216) but the night before their website changed and they listed Fulham v Manchester United (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/16173202) instead. Arsenal's Polish keeper played so I assume it was subscriber complaints that led to the change.
Oh, and Nowso quoted me as well and his replies just didn't make sense in response to what he was quoting.The way things are going now with all the picks and tv rights, the saturday 3pm's will always be poor enough matches.

Very, very true. I'm still astonished the Premier League haven't shifted all matches to Sunday and stop pissing about with match-going supporters, whilst also giving tv rights-holders, advertisers and subscribers decent value for money.0 -
