You know how it works by now shirley. You make advance plans for the weekend, you secure the cheap advance deals, then Sky turn up two weeks before the game with their plug and play transmission facilities and you lose your money. Them's the rules. Club don't give a shit.
Decent chance of being Friday night I understand.

If true we could be top of the league after our opening game albeit for hours rather than any lengthy period

Or for all 46 games?
Or bottom.

Why would our game be put on sky? I think there are 4 or 5 games more attractive for them to put on. Massive Leeds against ex Prem Burnley, newly promoted PNE vs play off finalists Middlesborough, Ex Prem Hull vs Huddersfield, London derby of Charlton vs QPR, play off semi finalists Brentford against Ipswich.
A struggling team that scored no goals against a solid Chanpionship team has no real appeal for the neutral, surely?

Two teams with a large fan base. I don't think any Championship games have much appeal to the neutral on the first weekend of the season.

Yeah, but if we were bottom it would only be on goal difference.
If we win we'd be 3 points clear after one game!

Up the Albion!
After 14 weeks away without a drop of alcohol (job is zero tolerance), I fly home on August 8th in time to get to the ground for a 3.00 KO. So my thinking was, game, beers, home.
If they change this to the Friday night, I for one will be mightily pissed off!

Because the Amex has state of the art broadcast facilities? And no other reason.

First match of the season though. Premier League sofa fans would possibly watch Charlton vs QPR over us I feel.
It will be nice to be on TV to start our 46 game unbeaten run.
