    I'd take that as fair from anyone else. For him to complain about someone fecking about with his club is a bit rich.

    Derby (I've an interest nowadays) are on Sky just as often, yet they sell out regardless for most games.

    This is just going to piss off his own supporters who travel in large numbers.

    Erm isn't it optional and Leeds are CHOOSING to be on TV and rearrange their fixtures? I thought that each club was obligated to allow sky to televise something like one game per season and beyond that it was up to the club to say yes or no.

    I'm sure I've seen clubs (maybe even us) turn down the option of being on sky after being on once

    Refund the supporters with the telly revenue then, doesn't turn the money down though does he? Concerned my arse, a match made in heaven.

    As much as I think he's a complete nut-jack he does have a point. I couldn't care less because I don't watch footy on tele anymore but if I did I'd be very hacked off by the amount of coverage they are getting.

    I haven't much time for Leeds or Cellino, but he has a point about Sky and the fixtures. Once fixtures come out, they should remain fixed. Would solve the problem if TV games were agreed before the fixtures were released.
