Wrongagain Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 So when the next fixture list comes up Sky will no doubt announce which games they will cover and match days and kick offs will be adjusted to suit them - City management should say NO SKY F*** O** and alter the schedules of the teams you promoted last time around!

Wrongagain Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Who was it suggested Kodi? Like it myself - game of thrones fans, if you are paying sky to watch, you are being robbed - HBO running time for each episode well over the hour, sky running time 55 minutes - that's why it's almost impossible to follow the plot!

GrahamC Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Pretty sure the deal is every Championship club has to be on a miminimum of 4 times. That's a season, as opposed to Villa and Newcastle where it appears to be per month.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bard Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 It really doesn't matter. The money per game isn't too great and this is offset against the loss in ticketing revenue because a game is on the TV. It will certainly change if we're in 3rd place in March and Villa are 15th.

Numero Uno Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Huddersfield can feel as miffed as we do too. But as others have said your average Man Utd supporter from Guildford who subscribes to Sky would rather watch Villa and Leeds!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty Swallocks Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Being picked for Sky games is mostly an inconvenience, home games at 5:30 ain't too bad though. Glad we haven't been picked many times by Sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger clubs are going to get shown more and it's pretty obvious why. Don't think it needs explaining. If we are around the play offs from January onwards then we will be on more. Bigger clubs you say, we are currently the 10th best supported club in the championship on current attendances so why isnt that reflected in the televised games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
