What’s Up On YouTube: Following Football — The Premiership

Friday, 29 August 2014

The Premiership enters its third week this Saturday and the league has already produced its fair share of surprises, with Manchester United without a win to their name and Swansea joining Manchester City, Spurs and Chelsea with maximum points from their games to date.

This season, fans of both clubs and the league as a whole can stay abreast of developments direct from the clubs themselves thanks to video updates from all of the Premiership sides bar Manchester United and Sunderland via official YouTube channels. Channels typically offer previews of the weekend’s games, post-match analysis, game highlights, glimpses behind-the-scenes, interviews with players, manager press conferences and more.
Between them the Premiership sides boast around 1.3 million subscribers, with Chelsea (360K), Manchester City (300K), Liverpool (290K) and Arsenal (138K) currently topping the table. So, if nothing else, as a fan of Spurs, Swansea, Hull City, Aston Villa, West Ham, Everton, West Brom, Southampton, Stoke, Leicester City, Newcastle, Crystal Palace, Burnley or Queens Park Rangers, subscribe now and boost their profile on the site, while ensuring that the latest uploads are delivered straight to your inbox.
If football doesn’t quite do it for you, the UK Spotlight channel or music page should have something to catch your eye (or ear) with the latest trending videos, themed playlists and more.
