Manny2802 Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 I live 60 miles away from Leicester but still make it to every game even if changed it's done me a favour cause of playing cricket on a saturday anyway, but still be aware it's not the club doing this it's sky and if we had gone up in the prem we wouldnt be on sky half as much as we are at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluefox88 Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 Our local train service don't even run on a sunday. From where? There are trains from Leicester Station up until a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 That's right, blame the Club for something that isn't their fault, it's not like they offered supporters partial refunds if games continued to be switched with the frequency of last season. They don't have to agree to move it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ealingfox Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 They don't have to agree to move it. Mike McCarthy â€@mikemccarthy2h RT @david_swinfen: @mikemccarthy but surely the club can say no < Club can't say no. Only local safety advisory group or police can object.

foxfanazer Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 They don't have to agree to move it.I didn't think they had a say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorkie1999 Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 I think there's got to be some sort of backhander deal gone off with king power and sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomtom Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 Think LCFC have some blame to take as well for agreeing to it (again). Let me get this straight, was the deal that if this year we're on TV at home 6 times, then you get a refund for the 7th and all after that? Piss-take to think it could come to that... Just very disappointed. I'm lucky enough to be able to make them but I'm just sick of our attendances being hit by it and unlike most, I'm actually arsed by how it effects others and not just me. The club really can't do much about it, it's sky tvs decision.Surely you know all the ins and outs regarding it all by now? *edit* just seen your later post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayfox Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 After last season we now all know that unless the local police or safety advisory group object on safety grounds then there is very little the club can do and Sky can even issue a points deduction for teams failing to meet the media obligations of 1 contracted game. But lets be honest even without that, at what point do you think our owners are really going to turn down the chance to beam King Power and every other sponsor worldwide?

Brooksy Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 So our first Saturday 3pm home game of the season is moved. I bet they're just taking the piss now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonnieTodger Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 It's just laughable now. Almost glad I didn't renew my season ticket already. I was going to go to this one, being the first home game of the season but it'll probably still cost a fair whack. Much rather spend money on Derby away.

Babylon Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 let me know how that goes. Badly... So our first Saturday 3pm home game of the season is moved. I bet they're just taking the piss now. Bet they laughed their bollocks off when picking that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brooksy Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 Wouldn't surprise me to see the Derby game moved aswell. Probably to Thursday or Friday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanSP Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 In light of how many games got moved last season, what are the changes for this season as a whole? Maximum amount of matches moved/TV coverage per club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorlestonFox Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 What ticks me off more is the people on here saying "stop whinging you'll turn up anyway" Erm no. I don't live in Leicester. I live a 4 hour train journey away. So I wont be able to make the game, plus I don't have sky. First home game as a new STH. Great start! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickyboy Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 At the moment I can still make the Leeds game, and should be ok for most home games before jan, so I'm not too fussed about the moving of it But have a feeling that this is going to be a one off on my side though, if the games move to week nights like last season...then I'm screwed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Hundreds Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 Now I just need the Birmingham game moved too. Are you listening Sky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noggin Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 It's the only time I won't moan about a game being moved, only because Saturday is my stag do and I have no involvement in where I'm going! Selfish I know, but I'll moan about the rest that they undoubtedly move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose2010 Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 If the club said no we aren't moving it. I think sky can actually get points deducted? sure that is what was said last year i might be wrong. Thats the world we live in really when it comes to sky and the football league dont get me wrong i love a good super sunday like most people, but it is a little bit frustrating.

Dickov22 Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 I'm flattered. Shows we are a big draw as a championship side. We play good football! That's why they always want us on tv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox42 Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 I think I'm missing a major factor here... But why can't they just show matches on a Saturday 3pm KO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsell1976 Posted 20 June 2013 Share Posted 20 June 2013 It's pointless but there should be some sort of demo, as us fans should be heard. It's clear the majority of us are pissed off already, and after all the games moved last year, for sky to change our first home game is a disgrace. Again it would be pointless doing a demo as nothing would change, but show the club how pissed off we are, better than just rolling over for sky all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
