    Just to correct what I said... it's actually worse:
    "Changes this year due to new Sky TV deal. Changes made by:

    Opening day - Today
    Rest of August - within a week
    Sept - Jan - by the first game

    One L1/2 game per week on a Thursday night"


    So basically September games can be shifted in early August, when some may have access to away tickets.

    All together.... "Sky TV is f***ing sh**"

    Totally agree and they dominate everything the fans take enjoyment of without a whim on what disruption it may cause to them, both with timing and more important, financially.

    You sound like going to south Wales on a Monday night wasn't convenient.

    It's definitely not. Last went there back in the late 80's but I'll see how things are before I make a decision on going. At least I can hopefully get to tick off another eight grounds I've not been to this season.

    On weekends when there’s a full domestic programme.there will be 7 games that kick off at 12.30 on a Saturday.a mix of champ,lg1&lg2…

    They are really stressing the point that the first five months of games will be known before season starts,but in emphasising that it all indicates the second half of season will be like the Wild West,as surely they will want to choose games dependant on league positions etc as season goes on…
