    So this season we've had 6 games at home on a Saturday - thanks Sky!

    Think this might be my last season as a season ticket holder as its a ****ing joke the amount of games get moved for sky - at least I can go to the sky box at half time and call Don Goodman/beagrie a ****

    6 home games on a Saturday is just ridiculous.

    I know people who have paid the full amount for a season pass, knowing that they'll be unable to go to a night games because of work commitments.

    Be prepared for more if we get to the Premier League, but I agree, it's ruining football as a people's sport. Although when you live away from Leicester like me it is nice to see the team once in a while.

    I've got no doubt that SKY have their eyes on that game.

    This is becoming a joke. I only made a thread yesterday highlighting the fact we dont get many home saturday 3pm kick offs and then this happens

    Its about time the club stood up for its fans. I can understand moving for SKY but its nearly every game now

    I've never known Sky have so much interest in us. Funny thing is, if we get promoted we'll be lucky to get on Sky three times next season! It's great for our profile but terrible for those that have paid in advance for matches they can't make. They should give these fans refunds when Sky move fixtures.

    I bet the BBC will have their eyes on the Forest game, too.

    it is bad I agree, though from a totally selfish perspective, it's great, as I'll get to see it live over here in the U.S.

    There´s alot to take in here & I understand what you´re all saying. For me it´s great as I get to see another game on the PC, BUT as said, most of those that get an ST thinking they´ll be popping down to the game on saturday at 3pm must be unhappy. It will bring the attendence down too. The flip side however means the clubs getting some good cash in from live games.

    There´s alot of HOME mid-week games & Millwall is on a Friday, added to that the Brum game & maybe Watford aswell ? that´s 6, maybe 7 of the last 8 home games NOT on a Saturday.

    I would imagine that Watford will be live.

    Geez we moan if we're not on TV and then moan when we are and then we blame the club for taking the revenue it generates instead of supporting its supporters and saying no to Sky, unbelievable!!

    If the TV revenue brings in more money, and the money gets spent on improving the team/stadium/training ground etc, then really there's little to complain about.

    The current owners have pumped alot of money in already, it could be worse, if Leeds had all these games on TV, the best they could hope for was 1 loan move for the rest of the season.
