- The Guardian, Wednesday, May 6, 2015 6:55 AM
The Football League has struck a deal with Channel 5 to air a weekly highlights show in prime time on Saturday evenings. The deal, struck for the next three seasons, marks the first time that Football League matches will be shown in prime time. Channel 5, which will air a weekly 90-minute show at 9pm starting next season, takes over from the BBC which had aired highlights after Match of the Day, usually starting just before midnight and ending after 1am.
