Cardiff game at the Reebok, Sat, 3rd Nov - Live on Sky!

Kick off 5.20pm.

If I've got this right that means we've got 2 home games live on Sky before December- against Forest and now Cardiff.
It sounds good - but it usually means that the crowd is down as its cheaper ansd easier to sit at home and watch it- although we'll pick up a pile of dosh for being live.
Personally I wish they'd broadcast more of our away games as I think we tend to play better and differntly away from home. It also means that for non travelling fans we see them a few times more.
Anybody agree or disagree?

Phew - at least 2 matches on sky, and hopefully some on Al-Jazeera sport, which does follow the Championship, or even Sky Italia and Sky Deutschland!

I agree. It's bloody dear following Wanderers away from home especially if you have kids. Fortunately, this coming season we have quite a few away games within easy travelling distance.

I'll probably draw the line at Watford and give Charlton and Ipswich a miss.

I know we get money and 'Brand exposure' on TV so i accept we kick off at stupid times now and again. but we are going to see much more of this in the championship because as the championship goes - we are now a 'big' club.

as a fan... id be happy never being on sky and kicking off at 3pm on a Saturday every week...

or failing that... im REALLY looking forward to friday night football, that's gonna be amazing!

Friday Football?

That just reminds me of Tranmere, Aldridge & Morrisey...

I apologise.

I'm embarrassed, saddened and upset by my last comment.

As punishment, I've put my name down for a council house near Turf Moor...
