This just isn't true
Was talking to a Spanish football journo about this on Friday. Is an agenda entirely set by Spanish TV, and Spanish fans are really pissed off about it (you wouldn't get back from the game until 2am!).
They're only allowed to do it in August - on the basis that the entire nation is still on holiday - but obviously people still want to get their kids to bed before 2 in the morning. And are therefore not happy.
