NBC Sports MatchMaker
How?
At game time, the app activates an interactive map showing exactly where other fans of your BPL team are congregating, as well as showing the best football watching bars and venues as voted by other fans. From here, you can seamlessly invite your friends to meet up in the moment, or organize a get together for an up-coming match. You can even start the pre-game banter early, with an integrated group chat function. And because it is directly linked to NBC’s broadcast schedule, you'll get reminders about your team's upcoming matches so you'll never miss a kick-off, while the app’s integrated feed will ensure you stay up to date with breaking Premier League news.

As of 2016 opening weekend, news hasn't been updated since June. No upcoming matches listed on the second day of the season!
What kind of app crashes the first 3 times you open it
It shuts down as soon as I try to open it
This pos app never works don't bother with it
I downloaded the app despite the low ratings in an act of purest optimism... It won't even open.
Garbage...app will not even open. Crashes every time
Please fix this. And please add more leagues
Will not open at all.
Crashes on startup
Do NOT download this app!!!!!
This app is great in theory, but not enough users. Needs more marketing, this would be grwat for when I'm traveling to find football pubs
Trying to log in with FB or twitter doesnt work. Needs an update as soon as possible.
This is for a contest and it's flawed. Inviting friends simply creates a link to the app on iTunes (from an Android phone)
Great idea. Great app. 3 hours before games isnt much notice but once u meet up the first time, u dont need more than that if u already intend of meeting. Need more commercials running during games to get the word out.
Clearly needs to be updated, for right now it's still basically just an idea
Seeing meet-ups earlier would be more useful.
Have to have a Facebook account... Delete
What's the point of the app if I have to do all the work of finding a place and organizing people who support my team? I look for places and only one is in California, in North Cal-- San Jose. Not one is in LA. Then, the only reason I would need this app is to find other people who share my passion for the team. If I had all those friends, then I wouldn't need help finding them. But I can't find any friends who are not already my friends. Basically, useless.
Useless without Facebook. I have to be friends with people to organize a meet up at which point I don't need the app.
This app is brilliant! This is a much needed service for footy fans. However, I think you should be able to see all meet-ups everywhere. Not just the people you're friends with on Facebook. The point of the app is to connect you with people you probably don't know.
You can only see meet ups for people you're friends with on Facebook. Useless if you're looking for a place to catch the match with others in the area
So you can only search by places you know, and you can only talk to people you are friends with? How does that help anyone find a place that show the games or find a group to watch with? Not all of us live in Boston or Chicago with a giant fan base for our team. Poor execution across the board.
This needs to be an app that allows all fans to connect with each other. Otherwise, it's not very useful.
Looks like there are very few takers for football in Texas. Well its early days to post a good review. Only 1000 downloads!
If this app becomes non-Facebook dependant, it will become huge in North America. Until then, meh.
Pretty presumptuous to assume everyone who likes football has a facebook account. Uninstalling. Too bad, too. It's a neat idea.
Great idea will be developed further I'm sure
Often showed that no matches were upcoming when the opposite was true. Regularly listed times and dates of matches were incorrectly
