NEWS Liverpool's game against Premiership rivals Manchester United later this month is set to become the first top flight English match to be broadcast in full on the internet. Liverpool currently shows highlights of all their games on the liverpoolfc.tv website, which last season carried a live webcast of the club's UEFA cup match against Roma, but the United game will be the first Premiership game to be screened in full - though it will not be shown live. From midnight on 22 January, fans who subscribe to the club's e-season ticket will be able to access the video of the game. Non-e-season ticket holders will be able to pay £2.99 to watch it. The venture is run in conjunction with Granada Media who developed the club's website. In July 2000 Granada invested £20m in its joint venture with Liverpool FC to handle the club's new media interests.
