Are these Football on TV Listings reliable and updated regularly?

Where's the Match have been running these schedules relentlessly for 15 years and have never waivered from it's mission of being the best Football TV Guide for UK soccer fans. We're not perfect but usually get the football schedules right most of the time - for the odd occasion we don't, you can tell us here and we'll happily get it sorted asap.

Does Where's the Match list all football fixtures as well as TV games?

Generally, we'll only list football fixtures that are televised live - however, some of our users like to specifically know if a football match is not being televised (rather than not list them) so we add these to our schedules for the bigger teams and leagues that we feel might be useful. If you don't want to see these fixtures, you can sign up for a Premier subscription and filter these matches out of your schedules.

Does Where's The Match offer live football streams?

Absolutely not, we are a Football TV Guide first and foremost. If there are official live football streams available in addition to the main TV broadcasters covering the game, we will add them to our Football TV schedules for your information. We have, and never will provide live football streams that are illegal in the UK or worldwide.
