Premier League apologise as Tottenham announcement made

Tottenham Hotspur are preparing for the new Premier League season under new manager Thomas Frank, following the sacking of Ange Postecoglou after the team's disappointing 17th-place finish in the 2024/25 campaign. This change has generated excitement among fans hoping for improvement and a trophy.

However, the Premier League's TV fixture selections have disrupted some fan plans. Multiple Tottenham matches have already been chosen for broadcast. This includes their August away match against Manchester City on TNT Sports, and all of their European matches (including the UEFA Super Cup and Champions League).

On July 23rd, the Premier League confirmed two additional September fixtures for TV broadcast: Tottenham's away trip to West Ham and their home match against Wolves, both live on Sky Sports. The Wolves fixture could potentially be moved again depending on Tottenham's Champions League schedule.

The Premier League apologized for the delay in announcing these selections, which were originally due on July 9th, citing delays in obtaining necessary local approvals. The statement noted this announcement still met their commitment to provide at least six weeks' notice for fixtures before January.

The article criticizes the selection of the Wolves fixture for TV broadcast as "ridiculous," arguing that the possibility of it being moved again makes planning impossible for fans of both teams.
