Replays are allowed to be shown on the same night as Champions League games. The original ties are not.

Re-arranged games are - not replays (as far as I understand it). So postponed games can be screened..

Ah that's it. They discussed it on the radio the other week and I knew it was something like that.

Hull v Arsenal is a replay,as were the 2 Scottish cup ties

But they got explicit permission for the English game - that's why I asked if permission had even been sought for the cup replays here.

Nothing can be scheduled - i.e. from start - for CL/EL nights.

Rearranged games (inc. replays) can be rescheduled onto CL/EL nights.

Nothing can be televised on CL/EL nights, eve rearranged games (inc. replays)...

... but FA asked and UEFA say Hull-Arsenal can.

Hull/Arsenal is allowed to be shown live because UEFA know no-one will watch it.

However, Scottish football would take viewers from all across Europe away from the champions league, and UEFA were worried about going up against it.

On a serious note I think BT Sport can show it because they're also the Champions League broadcast partners. Sky couldn't show a live game that night, and it's Sky who have the Scottish Cup rights, so no permission would have been given.

Is it the FA or the channel and is it only domestically that they can't be shown? As Sporting v Barcelona was on SkySports on a CL night.

Can you not get away with a game on a Champions League night if it finishes before the Champions League games kick off?
