Still waiting for them to copyright the use of the word “Football” so we can all call the sport Soccer.

Alan, Tanuj,

A fixture list is exactly the same a schedule. It’s just a list of who is playing who, and where and when.

Well the way the Data Co. has been sending out notices for such small things I wouldn’t be surprised if these did take place.Would there be a price to pay if someone wants to name their child by the name of a player playing in the leagues?That would be interesting too,isn’t it?

I have the same question as Alan,does fixtures mean the date and time and which team is playing who or does it mean TV timings in certain areas?

Wait, maybe I’m a bit confused because I’m in the US, but when you say they were banned from publishing fixtures do you mean posting who plays who?

We believe you call them “memories”. We call them “unlicensed broadcasts” and you’ll be receiving a cease and desist letter any day now.

Scary part is, if the technology existed…
