Curiously they've chosen to not include 31st December in the blackout window - it returns on January 14th (after the FA Cup3rd Round).
Despite the 3pm blackout not being in force today, it looks like it's only really the BBC taking advantage by showing goals from FA cup matches on Final Score. (There's a La Liga 2 match on La Liga Sports TV, but that seems to be it.)
Presumably because the black out is in place in Scotland and other broadcasters don't have the ability to provide separate programmes to Scottish viewers in the way that the BBC has.
