[Albion] Cardiff away now on Sky 12.30KO 20th February

[Easy 10]

Sorry Easy, I didn't mean SKY, I meant the current set up of clubs on the receiving end of being jerked around by SKY is not a sustainable business model. Too many fans losing too much money too many times.

I think if that were the case we'd have seen a serious impact by now. We as fans might have a little grizzle about it, but when it comes down to it, we still pull our pants down around our knees, bend over, and take it long and hard up the marmite freeway from dear old Uncle Rupert.

None of our crowds have been significantly affected by shifted kickoff times.

Not one I was ever going to travel to, so quite happy with that. Other than the fact that were loose now, obviously.

Surely we are due a good performance and result on Sky someday

 

[Gazwag]

If we have to be on Sky I prefer it to be an away game as I do not go to away games now, been seen and done that over the years when younger but too much hassle now. I know that makes me a bad fan but I can live with that.

Bad fan NO Selfish fan YES

Tickets sold, no because of the high % of STH rather than bums on seat a different matter

****sake.

Indeed. Wankers

X 2.

Glad its an away game they have moved for once

But the money we get from Sky (annually and on a match-by-match basis) will more than cover what we miss out on from people not turning up.

Not great when you see a few additional empty seats, but what can you do. TV is an intrinsic part of the game now, has been for years and that's never going to change.

You get a Sky a lot more top of Champ than bottom of Prem it seems. What really concerns me is our record on Sky is awful, aside of that we have a decent record in Cardiff over recent years

 

[Eeyore]

This is the reason why I can't book trains in advance to away matches now. Unless it's not necessary. If I go away it's the coach from now on.

 

[sir albion]

Should have a few players back by then hopefully

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Gonna be an early start now then....hope it's not too chilly.
