TV Schedule For Premier League Finale

The final day of the 2008/2009 Premier League season is this Sunday, and all of the attention will be focused on the bottom of the table to determine who will be relegated or not. Here’s the TV schedule for residents in the UK and USA:

UK:

• Aston Villa vs. Newcastle – Sky Sports 1, 4pm BST
  
• Hull vs. Manchester United – Sky Sports 3, 4pm BST
• Sunderland vs. Chelsea – Sky Sports Red Button, 4pm BST
• West Ham vs. Middlesbrough – Setanta Sports, 4pm BST

USA:

• Hull City v Manchester United, Fox Soccer Channel, 11am ET
• Aston Villa v Newcastle, Setanta Sports, 11am ET
• Sunderland v Chelsea, Setanta Xtra, 11am ET
• West Ham v Middlesbrough, Fox Soccer Channel, 1pm ET [tape delay]
• Arsenal v Stoke City, Setanta Sports, 1pm ET [tape delay]
• Liverpool v Spurs, Fox Soccer Channel, time TBD [tape delay]
• Man City v Bolton, Setanta Sports, time TBD [tape delay]
• Wigan v Portsmouth, Setanta Sports [tbd], time TBD [tape delay]

My only concern about the US TV schedule is that we won’t be able to see Middlesbrough get relegated live on television (or perform a miraculous escape). To me, I’d much prefer to see West Ham v Middlesbrough on Setanta Xtra than Sunderland versus Chelsea. There’s still a chance that Sunderland may get relegated instead of Boro, but I doubt it.
