Luton Towns first game in the Prem postponed.

Ok thanks
I thought the Premier League was actually the FA Premier League so they would have a decent influence on rules and regs

The point I was making was, to use the example above, why does a tunnel need to be wider for a Prem game than it does for a Cship game? It’s ok to be in a time warp for the cship but not the prem

Genuine question and it might be due to the preference for a wider TV angle in the build up to the game to placate Sky who pay a lot of money.
But then again Sky televise cship games too so maybe that’s not the reason

I'm not sure why the Premier League specifies these requirements but, as you've hinted, it's probably about the overall presentation package for TV and other media outlets.

I remember a report on Sheffield United when they returned to the premiership. The had to spend £5m on their media facilities.
