Cider red Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 Simply we are awful to watch, probably one of the worst sides in the FL. I would back a decent L2 team to beat us at the moment 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveybadger Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 We may not be very good but we still score a few, and concede tonnes, so theoretically we should’ve been on more.!

That does seem unfathomable, but sort of fits the theme of every Welsh sporting club (Glamorgan cricket, ******* Wrexham) getting hugely disproportionate coverage. I assume there is a minimum number & Easter Monday means it is met? With red button it hardly matters in truth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon it's because the general public admire DCFC for working so hard against all the odds and they are everyone's second fav team (or third after the G@s). It's the fault of the EFL and HMRC and they have been victimised for far too long. In addition, Wayne oozes charisma and is sooo interesting to listen to in both pre and post match interviews. He is a great role model off the pitch as well and all round good egg. #sarcasm 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bank Holiday matches outside of Sky's main picks are available at the discretion of the home club. If they choose to make it available in the UK, it is available via both the home away club's respective streaming platforms (Stoke City + Live, Robins TV) and the Sky Sports red button. If they choose not to make it available in the UK, it is available via both the home away club's respective streaming platforms (Stoke City + Live, Robins TV) outside the UK and will not be available via the Sky Sports red button. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 And the table won't look much different next season. If Everton were to get relegated their total will be in the 20s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italian dave Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 We may be dogshite, but WBA aren’t a lot better and look where they are. Bournemouth surprises me. And Luton will probably feel they are relatively ignored based on reputation rather than actual football quality. Or perhaps Sky OB teams just dislike pokey little grounds.

Supersonic Robin Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 This isn't at all surprising in fairness. Before the season started I predicted that we'd be one of the most "boring" teams in the league this season - nowhere near the top 6, and just about good enough to avoid any sort of relegation battle excitement. Regardless of how good/bad we may be to watch, you can see why Sky wouldn't bother selecting us much this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidercity1987 Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 This fits well with the strange club thread Much bigger fanbase than many on that list. QPR for example, 14 games despite a much smaller potential audience of fans. I know they have been flirting with the play offs but I can guarantee we weren't on 14 games in 17/18 and 18/19. We have a massive image problem 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
