Coventry away Monday 29th December 6pm kick off 12:28 - Sep 21 with 736 viewsrgp1

Now we know this game is on Sky. But this day is not a Bank Holiday so presumably as a working day many will miss it, can anyone offer an explanation please?

Sky have done it a number of times previously between Christmas and New Year while pretending that everyone is on holiday anyway. Allows them to show two matches that evening. It’s inconvenient for home as well as away supporters.

No, other than that Sky and the League don’t give a toss about the actual match-going fans.

There’s a very clear explanation. You seem to be under the false impression that Sky give an eff about fans. They only care about the TV ‘consumer’.

Poor isn’t it and you’re quite right to question it. Not content with corrupting English game with obscene amounts of money, they want to alienate as many true fans as possible doing so.

Or about the game itself. Given some of the analysis of the Championship so far this season, both during and post game shows that Sky are constantly looking for the next talking point or soundbite in every game.

The amount of times the in game reviewing of footage is akin to a VAR review is astonishing, I would not be at all surprised if, (given the additional funding going into the EFL from Sky), they we actively campaigning for the introduction of VAR at the 2nd level.

Bang on. I urge any match going fans who subscribe to Sky/BT etc to cancel. If you subscribe you are part of the problem.

I think there will be a fair few people who actually have those days as part of their annual holiday days , gives most people a decent break during festive season .

All good points but no I'm not under a false impression. I just wanted confirmation of what you said about the tv consumer and that what i was seeing as a fixture wasn't wrong. In any case, I thought Sky subscription rates were falling through the floor. Obviously not.

A 7:45/8pm kick off is very different to a 6pm kick off on a work day, though.

Some people will be “back” at work but not really because it’s still the Christmas season. The pubs were packed all afternoon before Chelsea last year and the majority of the population that has an office type job is probably not going to back in the actual office. Loads are off until January etc etc.
