Town’s game at Wigan Athletic has switched from Saturday 20th September to Monday 22nd September and will be shown live on Sky (KO 7.45pm).

The match will be the the Blues’ third live Sky appearance of the season with the Fulham game and the Norwich derby also having been screened.

The move means Town now have five evening away games in the Championship this season, in addition to seven at home, eight including the Fulham match on the opening Saturday, which kicked-off at 5.15pm.

JimmyJazz added 10:42 - Aug 28 Haven't Sky realised yet that we are a rather unattractive mid-table hoofball team yet? Won't be long before we are back to one game shown live a season

oncebluealwaysblue added 10:54 - Aug 28 After just one game a season for what feels like a decade, it's good to see Sky finally giving us some air time. Let's not embarass our selves like we did against the scum!

cats_whiskers added 11:02 - Aug 28 I don't think it will be too exciting to watch from a Town fan point of view. Might have more fun improving on my Cross-stitch therapy course, whilst relaxing by a warming fire and a mug of cocoa.

Superblue95 added 12:21 - Aug 28 Jimmyjazz- they're probably showing it more because of the lure of Wigan than the lure of us

northerngeezer added 12:24 - Aug 28 Wigan usually reduce ticket price for games moved. I recall paying £10 for last seasons trip as they were in Europe. Be good to see ITFC reduce coach prices but the northern support of ITFC is as always excellent.

Kentish_Tractor added 12:36 - Aug 28 They're just using up our quota early so they don't have to show us later in the season, when the teams that are actually going to be involved in the promotion race or relegation scraps can be shown. Clever scheduling by Sky.

rgp1 added 12:58 - Aug 28 This has fecked me right up. Had a hotel booked in wigan on the Saturday night. Sky can feck off. Changing 3 weeks before a game is ridiculous.

kesgrave_bluey added 13:05 - Aug 28 I've yet to find a pub that shows sky championship football, especially when we're on.

coolcat added 13:26 - Aug 28 Agree RGP1. Was about to book advance train tkts as I travel from London. Not fair on those who have booked travel/hotel, as not always poss to get refund.

linhdi added 13:31 - Aug 28 Grrr. Had advance train tix and non-refundable hotel booked for Fri night. Might do the trip and go to Bury or Fleetwood Sat instead!

mow_the_lawn added 13:55 - Aug 28 Without being biased, Wigan vs Ipswich on a Monday evening wouldn't really appeal to a neutral. Can't imagine they'd be getting that many viewers (Ipswich and Wigan fans aside).

ITFC_Cairo added 14:46 - Aug 28 I just moved to Madrid so I am hoping to find somewhere here that will screen it. Anyone happen to live in Madrid and know if it is likely to be on in a sports bar somewhere?

StochesStotasBlewe added 19:20 - Aug 28 If any Town fans are based near Rethymnon in Crete would be grateful to know of any bars/restaurants that would be likely to show the match.

BasingstokeBranch added 19:31 - Aug 28 Ludicrous to move a game at such short notice. With non-refundable advance rail tickets and a hotel booked for two nights I could be over £200 out of pocket here. Not that Sky give a hoot about real football supporters if course. You know, the ones you see on the telly sitting around the pitch watching.

rgp1 added 19:53 - Aug 28 Sindre94 why are we negative. Would you be happy if you'd arranged flight from Norway, hotels, train and match tickets and anything else all to find out that 3 weeks before the game that those muppets at sky have hijackedthe game for their means. That's not negative thats being pi$$ed off.
