cityexile Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Need to sort out my Easter arrangements this weekend, which are going to be here. there, and everywhere, but need obviously to be in Bristol for a certain match! Cutting a long story short, as I notice that Sky have now scheduled Championship games up to 11th April, are we past the point at which our game against Swindon could be moved because of being televised, if anyone knows?

ChippenhamRed Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Don't really understand Sky's approach to choosing live games in L1. For instance, ignoring our massive game at MK but showing them away at Bradford a few days later. Perhaps they have an obligation to show everyone once? Swindon game; local derby, two promotion rivals and previous from the last game - you would have thought they'd want to show it, but it sounds like they may already have made their decisions. Short answer, I don't know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted February 20, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Tend to move down the League's when allocating games - wouldn't rule anything out yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolcitysweden Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 You should be fine. BT Sport also have picked their games http://sport.bt.com/sport-football/tv-listings/live-football-on-bt-sport-S11376627423099 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityexile Posted February 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Thanks Phantom. Hopefully they do not want to interrupt a busy Easter schedule to much! Watch this space I guess. Don't really understand Sky's approach to choosing live games in L1. For instance, ignoring our massive game at MK but showing them away at Bradford a few days later.

Swindon game; local derby, two promotion rivals and previous from the last game - you would have thought they'd want to show it, but it sounds like they may already have made their decisions. Short answer, I don't know! Guess its a mixture of wanting to share it around, and having to guess a couple of months in advance. I am sure somebody knows, but it aint us! edit - just seen above post - cheers - might be ok then! One to look forward to... Saturday 28 March: Macclesfield Town v Bristol Rovers - 12.30pm (BT Sport 1) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 I've heard a rumour that the police would like to move the Swindon game to the Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sglosbcfc Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 I've heard a rumour that the police would like to move the Swindon game to the Tuesday. I'd like the police to catch more criminals, but it just ain't going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted February 21, 2015 Admin Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 I've heard a rumour that the police would like to move the Swindon game to the Tuesday. Would have thought more likely to have trouble at a night game. Am sure they'd prefer a Monday lunchtime.. Also probably means double time?

slartibartfast Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 All parties have to agree, and the OB wanted it for sure Wouldn't have thought they were that bothered. If they can't control (or protect) a thousand Swndle, then they should give up ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
