FA CUP THIRD ROUND ON TV

(ad) AMAZON FIRE STICK DEALS HERE
A RECORD-BREAKING 22 live FA Cup games will be available from the third round weekend of the competition.
As part of TNT Sports’ new four-year deal to show the competition, all matches not kicking off in the 3pm Saturday blackout window will be available to UK viewers for the first time.
Eight main ties have already been selected by TNT Sports across the four days with two of those also being shown on BBC One free-to-air.
Now the full schedule has been released with a further 14 to be streamed on TNT’s discovery+ service.
These will mainly be games picked by international broadcasters to be shown. In previous seasons these game were not available to UK audiences. There may be other reasons – such as policing – as to why they have been moved.
The ten remaining matches kicking off at 3pm on the Saturday will not be available live to UK audiences.
Each club featuring in the eight main broadcast channel matches will receive an £80,000 fee. Those screened on discovery+ will get £40,000 each.
