New football show on Channel 5 to show all Championship, League One and League Two highlights before Match of the Day
The Football League Show will continue to be shown on the BBC after Match of the Day

A Saturday evening highlights show of all Sky Bet Championship, League One and League Two games will be show on Channel 5 from next season - before BBC's Match of the Day.
The highlights show will be screened from 9pm to 10.30pm on Saturdays - a big change from the graveyard slot the Football League Show currently has on the BBC - and will feature every single goal.
Football League chief executive Shaun Harvey said: "This is an exceptional opportunity for the Football League to work with a broadcaster that will schedule our matches in a prime-time slot.
"It will take our games to a wider, younger audience by giving us the chance to be first in front of fans on a Saturday night."
The Football League Show on BBC will continue to be broadcast after Match of the Day next season, and is a further indication of the level of competition currently in the market for football broadcasting rights.
