Saturday Night Football (SNF) (known as Ford Saturday Night Football for sponsorship purposes) was a football television programme on Sky Sports which broadcast live football from the Premier League. The show was presented by David Jones alongside Jamie Redknapp, in front of a live studio audience. The show ran from the start of the 2013–14 season to the end of the 2015–16 season and was one of the three main Premier League programmes broadcast by Sky Sports at the time, alongside Super Sunday and Monday Night Football.

The show ended at the end of the 2015–16 season, ahead of the commencement of a new Premier League broadcasting deal between Sky Sports and BT Sport, which saw BT take over the rights to the 5:30 pm kick-offs which Saturday Night Football broadcast.

Format

The show began at 5:00 pm (4:45 pm during the 2014–15 season) with David Jones and Jamie Redknapp discussing the day's results and building up to the live game. The show involved the use of the Sky pad, also used on Monday Night Football, to analyse the match. The show also made use of the studio audience with questions from them at certain points of the show.

After the live match has concluded, a highlights programme followed at 8:00 pm presented by Sarah-Jane Mee. This show broadcast a full replay of the best match from the 3:00 pm kick-offs, while at 10:00 pm a match choice is broadcast allowing the viewer to watch replays of any of the day's matches via the red button, apart from the 12:45 pm kick-offs which BT had the rights to.
