    Sky have announced the latest round of televised matches up to the 2nd April and guess what?.......we're not listed at all, zilch, nadar, zip. 2 games shown all season so more belt tightening for Lee Hoos I'm afraid as unless there's a minimum agreed amount payable per season we're going to receive next to bugger all.....

    Meanwhile between now and 2nd April we get the pleasure of watching Leeds 6 times, Wolves 6 times, Villa 5 times, Sheffield Utd 5 times.........how marvelous.

    To put a positive spin on it, good news for us foreign fans who have paid to watch via QPR+. Annoying for UK based fans, but a sign of our decline that sky don't deem us worthy of coverage.

    Can't argue with that Dave, it's just the reduction in income from televised games that will cause the CEO a few more sleepless nights......

    Easy to see how a small decline for a football club can turn into a vicious cycle.

    Lower mid-table mediocrity doesn't attract the viewers so I'll be happy if we stay where we are for the rest of the season...

    Is tomorrow's game on Sky? Don't find it being shown here and it seems unlikely to be on TV when the FA Cup is on.

    Someone posted on here that it's being shown on a foreign tv network so qpr+ can't show it.

    Yes. The commentators said that in the last game and its confirmed on the Offficial. It seems like it's not just Sky who have broadcasting rights to the Championship.

    How do we know that’s you, Vern, as your comment wasn’t posted by R2D2 on Zapachat or whatever it is...?
