Sky games

[Liam_SWFC]

Any Sunday game is shite. Can't see you needing to be concerned about a super Sunday game though In the near future

Not next season definitely. Imagine a trip down to Brighton on a Sunday at 4pm...

Wouldn't happen if you think about it, you might get 1 or 2 at the very very most on the prime slot and it would be at home because it would be against one of the big boys. We had 0 in 06/07

Leeds match on tv now Feb 10th. 3rd on list now for most tv games after Leeds and villa.

 

[tiltontrev]

Blues Villa at VP selected for Sky, fucking great!!!

 

[Super_horns]

Hardly a surprise though it is...

 

[markwwfc1992]

Yeah when was the last time Blues vs Villa wasn't on TV?

 

[SaMcRo]

Yeah when was the last time Blues vs Villa wasn't on TV?

Villa/Blues at VP last year wasn't....

 

[markwwfc1992]

Fair enough, thought they were always on TV to be honest, one of more enjoyable derbies to watch.

Yeah, was surprised it wasn't but it was the first Villa/Blues game I went to. Boring ass game but Gabby came up with the winner (Again!) so was more than happy.

 

[tiltontrev]

Yep, last year, ended up watching the game at St Andrews on the big screen, was pretty decent tbf apart from the score line.

 

[KevinMcallister]

no matter how shit we are, Sky Sports love our viewing figures

SKY Sports LEEDS

 

[hodge]

We've then had Fulham (H) moved to Wednesday evening and Cardiff (A) moved to Sunday 12pm because of Leeds being on Sky.

Villa seem to be on more than Leeds this season. Every other fucking week Villa are on.

think with the latest ones we have now been showed more

 

[Super_horns]

TBF You guys are pushing for the play-offs at least and those games are against promotion chasing sides - or in the case of Wolves champions in waiting so in a way it makes Sky's picks pretty sensible.

Leeds away on a Sunday at 4:30pm....

172 away fans.

Why? No one works and no early start, should manage 4 figures

mate you really overestimate our away support. A Sunday game on Sky when being charged £39 a pop, I'd be amazed if we managed 600.

I've got a hotel in Leeds booked for the Saturday so the only consolation is I can go out on the Saturday, get twatted and not have to be up for a 12pm.

 

[Aaron-Bcfc]

Leeds game being moved means our game at Cardiff has been pushed back to midday the Sunday after. Fucking shite

Forgot about the £39 Bit somehow.

I fucking wish!

Its all bull anyway, the police contact on OTIB claiming its because Cardiff are playing Ipswich on the Wednesday, a) we're also playing on the Wednesday and b) teams play Wednesday/Saturday pretty regularly we had our Qtr final vs Utd on the Wednesday and played Saturday for league.

 

[blademan89]

I fucking wish!

On a Sunday? Fuck that

Having the most viewers doesn’t necessarily equate to having the most fans.
Going on them viewing figures Leeds would have twice and 3 times the support of the other big clubs in the league, which is clearly not the case.

I was going to say high viewing figures relates to being the most attractive team to watch.
But Wolves play attractive football, also have good support but their viewing figures are surprisingly very low.

I tend to watch Liverpool and Man City as much as possible but don’t support either.

Many of those Sky viewers won’t support Leeds so I can only assume it’s based on club reputation.
Due to past glories many fans around the country often have some interest regards how Leeds are getting on, so will tune in when they’re on Sky.
Think most neutrals and PL fans would like to see them return to the PL more than any other club, hence the added interest.

 

[blademan89]

Our match with villa one week today has now been put on sky, a lot of notice there

 

[markwwfc1992]

I wonder how much of my £75 a month subscription to Aston Villa TV goes towards John Terry's wages.
