Just a really ridiculous new deal. How much more money are we making out of this to make it worthwhile?

Nothing in real terms, as it’s made every club equally better off

So that's all our August Championship games kicking off at 12.30, and our first home game of the season being moved to a Friday night.

Last Sky deal deal was £595m. This new one is worth £935m.
so its a 5 year deal for and extra 340m
68m per year of which i imagine half for the championship so £1.4m per year

a £400 Season ticket is £333.33 ex vat so it is the equivalent of 4264 additional adult season tickets per year

bad enough moving games for TV, now we're moving games for a streaming service. Just get rid of the 3pm blackout.

Timing of the Sunday games is all over the shop at the minute.
Don't seem to have settled for a particular time.

At least they are still mostly weekend, I get for some people moving from 15:00 on Saturday is inconvenient, but if we ever did get promoted to the PL then weekend games that are not at 15:00 Saturday, would be fairly sparse anyway.
Last season we did seem to have more home games moved than away games. Hopefully it will be better this year, but with increased interest the price we pay may well be more tv. Let’s be honest the atmosphere at the CBS is better than a lot of other championship grounds, so is probably more attractive to SKY.

We will have at least 23 games on Sky this season (so not Saturday 3pm kick offs). How does this compare to PL clubs?

As a quick example for last season, Man U had 8 Saturday 3pm kick offs out of 38 matches, all of which were interestingly at home.

Look at the 17/8/24
PL Has 4 sat 3pm ok championship has 8 I know there are more championship fixtures than PL but not twice as many. PL play fewer 3pm Saturday games than the championship.

Blackout is pointless now. Instead of avoiding 3pm TV games we avoid 3pm live games. Must be doing more harm than good, but all it would mean is Sky sneak another game in on TV, they’d still want as many consecutive matches Fri-Sun

What's the numbers? You said fairly sparse, I don't know what that means in terms of numbers.

Is that on top of the payments for Every Live game on Sky.

Last year it was over 100k per game, has that gone up ?

Let's hope the price these games a little more fairly.

How good would it be for Doug to charge Cat C prices for Oxford and fill the place?

As someone who goes to watch non-league if we're not playing on a Saturday (same with a fair few of my mates) I think the blackout is still very worthwhile.

Can ifollow be brought on a game by game basis as it seems there will be lots more games on sky but I might be away for a few matches.
