Sky must have bet against us going up:(

FFS!!! indeed. Beyond a joke now. Also the same night as Decapitated at the Concorde 2.

Not happy with this. I guess those viewing figures we saw recently have convinced Sky we are who the people want to watch

Really starting to think about some sort of protest about this constant changing of fixtures. Across clubs, not just us.

Besides the loss of the Saturday at 3pm fixture you've got fans losing money on pre-paid travel arrangements and lower attendances at grounds. Surely Sky must be aware of this?

Brighton live on Sky, season 2015/16:

H v Forest
A v Burnley
A v QPR
H v Middlesbrough
H v Wolves
H v Brentford
A v Cardiff
H v Leeds
H v Reading

Basically a QUARTER of fixtures from the start of the season up to the Reading match.

I have always been quite chilled about these changes, but this is now the straw that has broken the camels back.

For me, football is about Saturdays with the odd week game thrown in. It now feels like the other way round, and its all money driven. SKY are dominating the football schedules and its not right, you can blame the club for wanting the money but I know this is starting to piss a lot of fans off now.

Maybe Leeds did have the right idea in hindsight.

Arse cakes.

Was about to contact the club to host the REMF Quiz that night.

Back to the drawing board.

Saturday afternoon before when the game would have been, followed with sky sports sports centre to see the other results come in?

This is getting beyond a joke now. I bought my wife a half season ticket and that's three of the ten games that have moved and we can no longer go to.

I think the fairest thing the club could do is if a child cannot attend due to the game being moved, you should be allowed to upgrade the ticket WITHOUT it adding to the number of allowed upgrades per season.

Agree entirely, maybe reduce the number of upgrades down to 2 for daytime games (12.30/3pm), and allow an upgrade on every evening kick-off.

Might as well get used to it, if we want promotion.

Monday night games.

1230 Saturday
5.30 Saturday
Anytime on a Sunday.

Still a pain though. Trains always seem messed up getting to the game, packed with commuters. Much prefer my leisurely journey to the Amex via The Swan for Saturday 3pm KO's

Not much danger of that at the moment :down:

I love my Saturday 3 K.Os. Only 4 left (possibly 2 if Burnley and Derby are changed.

Not a happy bunny.
