THE final English Premiership's games of the season have once again been moved back 24 hours to allow live television coverage.

The Premier League chief executive, Rick Parry, announced yesterday that the" precedent set two years ago would apply this season as well.

Games due to be played on Saturday, May 4th, will be splayed on Sunday, May 5th, with 4 p.m. kick offs. BSkyB will be able to show games live.
