MUTV (Manchester United F.C.)


MUTV is a premium television channel owned and operated by English football club Manchester United. The channel first broadcast on 10 September 1998.
MUTV offers Manchester United fans exclusive interviews with players and staff, full matches, including all Premier League games, live reserve and academy games and "classic" matches plus footballing news and other themed programming. The station also broadcasts live for all of the team's pre-season friendly matches.
