The 3pm blackout.. why not schedule prem games to not clash with lower leagues? (alien.top)

To clarify, I’m not saying this rule should be removed, I’m actually in favour of it but what u don’t understand is if you are not allowed to broadcast on Saturday 3pm, why not just schedule your games accordingly. Look at Germany for example, none of their lower league games clash with Bundesliga. In this case I think the prem games should be rescheduled and it will be a win-win for everyone and the people who want to watch the games. Why can’t they do that?

Because 3pm on Saturday is a more convenient time for those of us that attend premier league games than late or early on a Saturday, let alone Sunday or Monday evening. Not everything has to be for the sole benefit of TV.
