    Interesting. Has the club objected to the kick-off time?

    I can think of why the club may not want it televised......

    Joking aside it would be nice to know if it was Sky's decision or the clubs.

    Quite a chunk of money thats foregone for not appearing on Sky in a home fixture.

    I'd say ours.

    But then again, you have Middlesbrough v Derby on same day.... Which could be a bit tasty with all the legal shenanigans going off between the 2

    I wonder if we’ve maybe agreed to swap a live game on sky possibly?

    Much better kickoff time whatever the reasoning.

    If it's Sky's decision and they haven't agreed to show an alternative fixture, I wonder if we're going to make a claim for compensation for the lost TV revenue.

    I think sky are the more likely party to dictate kick off times. They have probably decided to show the Boro Derby game, just for pot stirring value.

    I am delighted , firstly the kick off time is a lot more amiable & secondly it will get the armchair critics off the players backs ,at least all the moaning & groaning about the result & performance should be from the long suffering faithful who will be there to witness the latest offering from the Super Reds , actually I hope we are celebrating 3 points & looking forward to an enjoyable saturday night for a change instead of drowning our sorrows .

    Our club have lost a lot of cash lately. Stoke not being on TV no more or an afternoon game which are better attended. Now losing a second lot of Sky money from live coverage.

    Under contract to Sky. So it will be Sky who made the decision in my view.

    Joint decision. Terrible kick-off time for away fans being the main point. We’ll get a different game on Sky in March.

    You have to wonder what Sky were thinking about in the first place. It was always a daft kick-off time. Any idiot could see that - even me.

    Home.

    It’s a contractual thing. I can’t be arsed to explain it all, but when the Stoke game (Boxing Day) was postponed, it meant we were still due another TV game.

    So we’re still due one. I think Fulham personally. But I’m just guessing there.

    I think it was the right call, for fans especially.

    12.30 would have made more sense. The same time we had at their place. But still daft.
