Just been checking and currently there are no League One fixtures scheduled for broadcast. I thought they might have been interested in Sunderland Portsmouth or even us but obviously Leeds West Brom and Derby have a monopoly on live games. With the live streaming of all midweek Championship games you would have thought a fixture like us and Sunderland may have sparked a bit of interest.
Dream on. Weve already been on Sky this season. Be grateful! I don't know.. Expecting us to be on telly twice in one season.. anyone would think we were in the top 6!
Are you that bothered? If we were on telly again it'd be an early, late or Sunday kick-off and I prefer as many Saturday 3pm kick-offs as we can get. It's only 6 weeks since we were on vs Luton. If we're not on again till the end of the season I'll be happy.
I’ve never quite understood Sky’s obsession with Leeds, even when compared to the likes of Aston Villa, Derby etc. After Leeds, Middlesbrough also seem to enjoy a disproportionate amount of Sky’s attention. If Leeds were to get into the premiership I suspect Middlesbrough would replace them as the “go to” club of choice for Sky
Can't imagine why Middlesbrough would get extra attention. I would guess the decisions are on the whole down to ratings, more viewers more money from advertising.
Viewing figures = more advertising revenue - this may have summat to do with it. Also the self perpetuating myth that these are 'big' clubs - every one concerned with money making can't wait til the likes of leeds/derby/weds etc are where they rightfully (cough) belong. Personally I cant wait for the european league to commence
I personally hope we are not shown on Sky again this season , I realise that some of our fans are unable to attend a match for various reasons, but for regular attenders it brings nothing but inconvenience & armchair fans tend to be our biggest critics .
I think they are only contracted to show something like 20 league 1 and 2 games per season I am not sure if this includes the playoffs but if it does it only leaves 10 other games which will doubtless fit nicely into the international breaks when there arent any bigger games to pick from Dont Villa get a lions share of games as well - especially away from home Ifollow it is for our game against Sunderland
A large pool of armchair plastic fans!!!! Not been seen down at b5llend road since Seth Johnson signed for 6 mill and the wheels came off.
When were we last in away from home in the league? (Not counting play offs) I can't remember maybe it's a obvious one in forgetting.
Last none playoff one I can remember was when we demolished Birmingham 5-0 but that was about 6 years ago - I cant remember an away TV game since but I may well be wrong
why just out of interest? Sunderland away on a Tuesday night there is no way I can go - In the old days (or if it was a Saturday) I would listen to the commentary - now I can watch the match for £10 which I am happy to pay If I can go to a game though no way would I pay £10 to watch the Ifollow version - I would go to the game
Had it been confirmed by the club it will be available to watch for a tenner? Can’t get due to work but may leave early so I can get back for that.
Sky pi55 me off when they change kick off times to suit fans who only watch football from the pub or their front rooms. Fans on the terraces should be the priority. Haven't they started to have a game played on a Saturday night? I'm sure Spurs suffered this recently.
Unfortunately , the bulk of sky"s income is from advertising hence they need an audience watching the tv from the front room & the pubs . Personally , as I have stated before , I do not like us being on tv , firstly because of the inconvenience it causes & secondly because it suits the armchair critics .
Not down to the clubs. All non Saturday 3pm or televised live games are available to UK viewers via iFollow
