Why are Sky elevating us and giving us so much exposure?

    Playing well, Good on the eye and our fixtures have meaning to both clubs. Udders and Brizzle in a relegation dog fight.

    Nothing like being in the shop window for when Steve Bruce does his summer spending/shopping. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Burnley, uddersfield, bristol city confirmed in the next 5-6 weeks... and then depending on our position in the auto promotion race.. you can be sure we'll get 1-2 more.. imagine the final game 2 points behind kardiff, 1 point ahead of watford, guaranteed to be on sky?!

    When was the last time we were live on BBC? i seem to remember it was an Fa cup game vs Villa when they were good, Barry got a cracker as did Dawson with a freekick?

    Earlier in the season there was so much moaning that we don't get enough coverage or games live on TV.

    Now there's so much moaning that our games keep getting moved to accomadate for them being live on TV.

    Careful what you wish for.

    They are always **** quality. The "free" sites infect your PC with all sorts of malware. Trust me. All of them. If you EVER download anything from those sites, well yeah, you deserve whatever you get in all honesty.

    Yeah I saw that, that sucks. Why not make a trip to the game into a birthday treat?

    BBC no longer have any rights to show Live games. Just highlights.

    But if we keep winning then i can well see Watford - Barnsley and Cardiff(if it has meaning) also joining the list. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Just as long as Ipswich Town stays as it is. Got a great deal on a hotel in Ipswich for the saturday night.

    I'm going to Clapper, I need to make the best of the situation.

    The big night out will be reallocated to the next best time. I'll just have to fit the boozing in around the game on the 19th.

    I'm fairly confident that had Sky known that my birthday night out was happening then, they wouldn't have selected it for coverage. Turns out, they were unaware, and by the time they'd received my death threats, it was too late.

    Happens, dunnit.

    Might just buy a season ticket for SKY instead of the KC. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Very pleased that I didn't moan as I now have the right to be pissed off that:

    A) Kick off times and dates are being changed willy nilly

    B) Stupid travel restrictions and ticket allocations are being imposed as a result of these changes in time and date

    C) I have to put up with the Mrs. on easter Monday

    D) Enemy managers are being given golden opportunities to do some serious scouting on us other than the traditional 30 seconds on the Football League Show.

    Seriously, you come across as a bit over the top with that comment. Only a complete ****** has any chance of catching anything that detriments their system on most of the more popular streaming sites.

    It's fair to say that Windows Update ****s your system more than about 99% of malware/spyware and thats without even considering adblockers/pop up blockers/spybot/adaware/built in browser trapping.

    There are lots of reasons to avoid streaming sites but malware is not one of them.

    They ARE always **** quality, especially the streaming in your browser with "no downloads", and most of the ones linked from these forums require some sort of download. You suggesting this is safe and sensible?
