Initially it was supposed to be Nottingham v Cardiff, but they were keeping it a secret so that it would sell as many tickets as possible.
However, on THF they said this was cancelled as they would be showing the Cardiff v Nottm game in November, and didn't want the same teams shown so close to each other.
So they decided they would show the Belfast v Sheffield game instead. They've never been able to show live games from Belfast on a Friday night as the cameras have to be back in the UK for Premiership games on a Saturday.
However, there are no Premiership games this weekend due to the Internationals, and so this would be an ideal time to do it from Belfast.
And yet, there are now suggestions on THF that there will be no Live games until the new year when they will be showing them in HD. Which doesn't make sense as surely they would already have HD cameras for the football. Plus Sky seem to think they are showing it?
In which case hopefully it is just a case of the EIHL bluffing that they aren't showing it - so that ticket sales will be good.
