Leyther_Matt Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 FFS, fly out to Majorca that morning, deliberately arranged around the fixtures! Quote

Okocha10 Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Might have got a good crowd if it was on Saturday!! Thought being in league one shit like this wouldn't happen ah well more money for the club ££ Quote
paulhanley Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 This is the fixture (plus the away game) that I least could stomach a loss this season. Can't stand these lot. Quote
L/H White Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 reckon they've give us this because the bury one is off? Quote

Just checked with RyanAir about changing our flights and it would cost £450. Only paid £216 in the first place! Getting leathered in a bar and watching on telly it is. Quote
Marc505 Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Not checked but have any other L1 (or Salford) games been moved for TV today? Might be a way to replace the Bury game. It is shit for those wanting to go though, rules me out. Quote
Benny The Ball Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Given all that David Rubin and Co have done for ( and charged ) Bolton and Blackpool over the last few months , I reckon they should at the very least sponsor the match ball Quote

Got to factor in what we receive in terms of the TV deal as a whole though, some of which is essentially covering the risk of games being moved. Quote

Can't remember if it was the current Leeds owner or a previous one but he was banging on that every time they were on sky they lose money Given how much sky like to show them over a course of a season it must add up Quote

Valid point, how much is that though? Anyone know? Blackpool at home is probably one of the highest gate receipt money spinners for us I'd have thought, moving it for Sky wouldn't have been so bad if it hadn't been a Monday night! Not to mention how many Season ticket holders with young children won't be able to attend, North stand will look potentially as barren as it did Saturday! Quote

freds dad Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 I had the Saturday fixture planned as a day out via train and a few beers. Now it’s either a 90 minute drive after work and home around 11.30pm or stay at home and watch it on the telly. Can we say no to Sky? Quote

Spider Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Isn’t it good that we’re back to squabbling about Match fees? Grinned all the way through this thread 😁 Quote

Took me a while to realise why it wasn’t an international weekend for us this year 🙈 Quote
Mounts Kipper Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Hope the away game ain’t on sky proper mess up a good day out in January. Quote
