I too am neither an ex-pat nor a pools player.  I don't even understand 
(or care) about how the pools work.  The EPL is apparently hugely popular 
all around the world, not just amongst pools players.

I liked their coverage of Wimbledon, for example, because it's so much 
better than what we in the States get.  Tennis coverage in the States is a 
few personalities who happen to be tennis players, and screw everybody 
else in the draw even if their matches are much more exciting.  (And a 
*lot* of tennis fans I know fee the same way about tennis coverage here.)
