Match v Reading at home moved to Friday 24th Feb for TV

[BBassic]

This is starting to save me a lot of money. Evening games I no longer go into the pubs before / after the game and I get to the ground on the bus with enough time to get to my seat and then leave straight after.

Sky have been ruining football for a quarter of a century. They give not one SH1T about the real fans of the real clubs. Do not subscribe to their evil.

Well done profit paul. No seriously. There you are pontificating about the trains. Even on a good day they are patchy at best in the eves.

Now I know its contractual, I KNOW, but as someone who likes to think he has some influence being on various panels and I believe part of the negotiation for the tv deal couldnt you use this influence to say "make it the early sat or late sat ko" you utter ****ing bellend.

It was Middlesbrough at home last season (rather than Fulham at home) but yes, 24 matches (including the play-off semi-final games).

Has he not got a genuine argument with Sky to say 'We would love for you to be able to show the game but unfortunately we cannot do this at the moment due to transport issues', they would have to listen, no? If he has not even had that discussion then he has not really thought about the fans at all.

FFS another Friday, surprise surprise We always get the Friday slot.

Another home evening match when I don't spend any money on beer or food.

 

[chimneys]

Already started. Saving well over a hundred quid this Friday night for me and Mrs W to sit indoors and watch the Sky coverage. I am not particularly happy about it, but ongoing rail problems mixed with Leeds, Leeds, Leeds for an evening game possibly turning into a transport/carnage incident and also saving big money before Xmas make it a no brainer when I can have a bottle of wine and no extra outlay in my own lounge. Imagine if that turns into a habit?

I thought it already had.

Sorry couldn't resist fella.

Where were you, where were you, where were you last Saturday? Where were you last Saturday?

After getting so much credit for their response to the rail misery for evening games, the albion really lose it all for agreeing to an extra evening kick off.

Oh the strike will be over by February! cry the albion and Sky.


No chance - we've got at least a year more of this and not convinced it'll be resolved even by February 2018.


Sussex railways are no longer fit for purpose.

Do they have the option of not agreeing to Sky. I really don't think they do.

I'm sure they can push hard for Saturday lunchtime, Saturday 5:30, or Sunday.

I think so. I may be wrong on this but I remember hearing a strong rumour a few years back that sky wanted to show the Donny game (first at the amex). But we said no coz we wanted to keep it at 3 o clock.

The rules may have changed since then tho.

I don't think they have an option, but it seems very strange that we have had away games moved for Sky and they are not Friday games, home games are on a Friday.

Yes, it would be nice just for a change.
