Closed petition Ensure ALL national team football matches are shown on free-to-air channels

At the moment England matches are normally shown on free TV whereas for Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland fans need to have a paid subscription to Sky Sports. Football fans from the nations other than England have to pay to watch their country play matches.

More details

The Government should require that the terrestrial channels should ensure that fans from all UK nations can watch their national football team free on terrestrial TV and not be required to pay for a subscription service. The fact that English fans alone can watch for free is unfair to all other nations. It is national sport and so should be made available to all to enjoy.
