FFS! I have a wedding to go to on Saturday 20th August and was sure the game would be moved to the Sunday,

 

I even could have made both if the game was the 12.30 KO,

 

My wife will have to go to it without me 

 

I've got the same issue but 26th November Wedding in Liverpool....if the game stays on the Saturday I've told her she'll have to go on her own lol

We've just won the league, we are the best team in the country! Obviously from a fans point of view we play the most exciting football in the league but there's been a lot of rival clubs fans also suggest the same.

Just think with how much of a crazy season it was last year other teams should be having more broadcasting - you look at some of the games with the 'big teams' are barely even attractive to watch as a neutral. Without looking at the fixtures for some of those games I can bet there are better fixtures but it's just a laziness to just pick the same teams

 

Its not just the English market they consider though, people around the world are interested in the 'bigger' games.

Haha people moan when we are on sky too much, Now people moaning we aren't on enough.

I've never moaned city being on TV, it's good for the club financially, for fans who are unable to get to games and to reach out to neutrals. Only thing I don't agree with TV games is when they change the games to ridiculous times for fans or announce the games late for fans like the back end of last season

Sky's viewings isn't for the rest of the world, only for the UK. They have the rights to pick the games they want and work with the Premier League to move fixtures because of the U.K. 3pm showing ban.

International TV channels can show what they like from the fixtures given to them - a lot of foreign countries will have a 3/4 channels available to watch games with some available to stream online.

I know I'm going to think this more being a city fan but the hype around our club is mental at the minute! We are arguably the most talked about premier league club at the minute, you'd think with all the interest at the minute would mean more TV games initially - if after the first 2 months of games we look shit and getting no results then they don't have to announce as many games when they do the next set of games for Oct-Dec

Now I'm no big fan of Sky but for the major PL broadcaster to only be showing the defending champions twice in the first two months of the season is taking the mickey a bit.

West Ham are on four times FFS.

The irony.

Wanted to do the same. Bad luck Mozza

Could've been a lot worse. Inevitable really as champions that we were going to have our first game moved and also consider the other three are against the three biggest clubs in the country. It won't continue at this rate. All Saturday too. 12:30 for Hull away is crap though.

Friday night football will be pants. Don't they try this sort of thing every 10 years or so? It never works.

Have you got mixed up or have Sky and BT really switched their schedules this season?

 

I thought BT had the lunchtime kickoffs and Sky had the evening games.

Think the same too. Football league night lol

Friday's was always a rush after finishing work and also drags the weekend out (in a bad way)

I know what you mean, if you get a bad result it ruins the whole weekend, remember that Millwall home game where Morgan got sent off after 3 mins? That might've actually been a Thursday but still made for a crap weekend. I'm also not a fan of waking up on a Saturday with a full round of fixtures except us, feels like we're missing out haha.

the arsenal move is quite good. rest don't really affect me much. doubt anyone is that affected by away kick offs moving a few hours this far in advance.

Hoping to get a ticket for Liverpool this year so the TV move may give me a slightly better chance. We are always going to be on TV quite a bit early doors to see if we can continue to challenge.
