What does extended coverage mean for the game against Doncaster on BBC. Does it mean the game will be shown live or just a 10 minute slot in a sports show on that day ?

Probably less than 10 minutes , but I do believe that they show the goals soon after they've been scored through their match report show during the afternoon .

And it says something again about overseas people being able live stream it - something for you to look into

OK thanks . Next question , lol. This game is on a Saturday afternoon, over here I get all the SKY stations and BT 1,2,and 3 and England games on BBC or ITV, does this mean that the BBC has live football matches on a Saturday afternoon, or just FA Cup games ? Thanks for the info.

The game has been moved to the Sunday . Along with a few others . No matches in the UK are ever shown live between 3pm and 5pm on a Saturday . Except internationals .

No , the premier game or games that day will be on Sky .

I believe that BBC1 or BBC2 will have a programme where the games are discussed while they are being played , and goals from the games shown .
