Sky TV Must Be Embarrassed?

Sat Aug 26, 2017 8:57 pm

Can't believe that many teams are being featured in the first few months of Sky's Championship coverage yet the team that has led the Championsip from day 1 are not getting a look in.

Yes, games are selected in advance but surely they must take into account the current Championship table. Some teams feature up to 4 times in the first couple of months yet 5 teams including Cardiff have been completely ignored. Suggest that as in the Premier League every team should be covered so many times per season.

Looks like they have gone for the so called teams with 'big fan bases', Villa, Sunderland, etc.

I hope that whoever has overall control of match selection at Sky are embarrassed by the fact that the Championship leaders don't get a look in.

On current form and entertainment Cardiff should feature strongly. :bluescarf:

Leeds must be on Sky Sports more times than Man Utd, I'm serious they are on every week. Sometimes I wish Leeds and Villa would p*** off to the premier league so the rest of the Championship could get on TV :lol:

I might be wrong here, but I'm sure that at the start of the season they pick the games for tv, any games they pick after that, they are forced to pay quite a bit extra for, maybe trying to avoid costs

Agreed. :ayatollah: However the next allocation of live games will see us feature a lot, shame. Pundits will wax lyrical if we play like we have on TV.

We're top of the league with 5 wins out of 5, 3 points clear of the 2nd placed team, playing in the hardest 2nd tier of football in the world and probably the highest profile 2nd tier in the world!

How the Feck can we stay off the Radar? :shock: :lol:
