Reading v Brighton, Sun 15 Sep (1:15pm KO), live on Sky Sports

The car's not too bad if you do park and ride. Did that with my dad and didn't take us anything like an hour, although it was super expensive because it was Boxing Day.

I think it is only like a tenner to park in the Costco right next to the stadium... Had no trouble with traffic getting out either....

Only £10? How does that compare with our own car parks close to the Amex (Bridge, University)?

We parked on some kind of gravel industrial area next to the motorway, cost a tenner but only 5 mins walk from the stadium and was no hassle getting out

Excellent news, I finally organised myself to go on holiday not missing a home game and now have the Brucey bonus of watching this while sat in a bar in Spain.

This. (But Tunisia for me)

Why televise the games that the fans are most likely going to already?

You think Sky so much as thinks about the plight of the fans when they select their matches?

Presumably Sky paid for the rights to the Football League - a separate package from the Premier League rights. Why would they then not want to show the product they have just paid for? They could have simply not bid for Football League rights.

Sky want to be showing the top games in the league - which that weekend is a team that got relegated against one that just missed out in the play offs. The Championship is not looking as good a league as recent years in terms of names/derby matches and I would think this one is near the top of there list of games to show.
