Guest Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 On the channel now it says "match choice 1030pm". Where is the list of the games being shown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are they adding them slowly, there were only 6 games the other day when I looked (I think)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 Just read the following: On Boxing Day, you can see Sheffield United vs Derby live on Sky Sports Football from 2.55pm and six other games on the red button and the app: Birmingham vs Stoke Leeds vs Blackburn Norwich vs Nottingham Forest QPR vs Ipswich Swansea vs Aston Villa West Brom vs Wigan https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/11588417/boxing-day-football-on-sky-sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 Probably they`ve only got so many channels and we`ll be on NY Day v Stoke to make up for it. No conspiracy @Never to the dark side I don`t think, just a lack of broadcast space - after all, there are nine other teams that aren`t being shown either.

Guest Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 Sky only have the capacity for x amount of games - hence why midweek fixtures are usually split across tues/weds.

xerox6060 Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 Yes I agree that's got to be the reason they can't show them all, I'm anticipating the Stoke game will be on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 Sheff Utd vs Derby - Play off battle Leeds vs Blackburn - Top of the league game Norwich vs Nottingham - Auto promotion position game QPR vs Ipswich - Play offs push vs relegation battle Swansea vs Aston Villa - It's Villa, Sky loves them West Brom vs Wigan - Fight for Automatic promotion The only game in there that I think we could argue we'd be better to replace is Swansea vs Villa but we're mid-table playing a team who have enough points to be safe from the relegation battle for now. In all fairness, if I was a business looking to maximise viewership I think the games they've picked are genuinely the better ones to have on. Obviously, it sucks for us but it's in no way being treated unfairly. If we were fighting for a playoff spot against a relegation team or another team fighting for a playoff spot I'm pretty sure we'd be a game on the red button.

Red Skin Posted December 27, 2018 Report Share Posted December 27, 2018 We're all been moaning how shite our football is this season. And we aren't scoring or really conceding many. I wouldn't pick us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
