“ OVER 300,000 WATCHED CARDIFF CITY “

Fri Sep 29, 2017 2:19 pm

An average of 309,000 watched Cardiff City v Leeds United on Sky Sports.

An impressive number when these were the average viewing figures for the two English teams playing in the Champions League on BT Sport on the same night:

Apoel Nicosia v Tottenham Hotspur - 93,000
Manchester City v Shakhtar Donetsk - 263,000

Hopefully this will encourage more live games and revenue .

Do you think this is probably something to do with more people having Sky sports and not BT?
I don't watch champs league games unless i'm at the pub because i'm not paying for both ! :old:

Over 300,000 viewers is a fantastic figure. Shame that BBC Wales didn't give it the coverage it deserved. Biased at worst, incompetent at best.
