This weekend Arsenal Women resume their 2023–24 Women’s Super League campaign, following the well-deserved winter break. Arsenal welcome Everton to Meadow Park on Saturday, kick-off 2pm UK, but fans will not be able to watch the action live, unless they’re at the game of course.

Arsenal Women take on Everton this weekend but unfortunately, that game won’t be broadcast live in the UK due to “an oversight by all parties” as per Emma Sanders (BBCSport).

How can something like this – a big WSL game between the 3rd and 7th placed teams – not be shown live anywhere in the UK simply “due to an oversight”??
Is this a simple mistake anybody could make? Or negligence?

  1. In reality what can football fans do? I am prepared to bet that if this had happened to Chelsea they would have found a way.
    As ever the WSL is managed by non football people who care less about the participants and the fans.

  2. Aside from the TV screening cock-up. There have been no rational explanations as to why this game has been scheduled for Saturday when the normal WSL matchday is Sunday.
    Given that the men are playing at Emirates on Saturday makes it more nonsensical.
    If one is a season ticket holder for both men and women its even more frustrating.

  3. When did the FA ever care about supporters in general.
    Games at 8 pm ending past 10oc and then needing to get from London to Manchester
