THE rise of in-house Premier League TV channels has allowed us to get “closer” to teams and show us a side to players we haven’t seen before.

While it costs money, it can be seen as an investment for die-hard fans. The ability to watch youth and reserve games can be extremely helpful, not to mention they have radio coverage of every game. So if your team isn’t on television, you can still listen live.

If you’re not a fan but still want to listen/watch a game via a football club’s media channel, there is always the BBC which will provide updates for games as well as full live commentary from games.
