Not sure if it will be much better in the Championship. I would imagine we would feature quite a lot, at least to start with, as we will probably be one of the favourites to go straight back up.

To those of us who are lucky enough to go to every home game, it's a pain.
However, I suspect that many on this forum who for whatever reason cannot get to home games - and have access to Sky - will be silently rejoicing. I, for one, will be in Pampanga Philippines on this date, so I'm pleased I will be able to see it live (pleased, that is, if we still have something to play for).
Two sides to every coin.

There is Two sides and I absolutely don't begrudge others being able to watch it, but as someone who stumps up hard earned cash for the privilege it pisses me off, clearly that is my angle on it based on my situation.

Sky have ruined the game, we looked forward to MOTD all those years ago trying not to see the scores from Div 1 so we could enjoy the games.
And next season I expect Town will have 12-30 kick offs on Saturdays which is crazy for travelling fans.

It’s looking highly likely that you won’t have to wait too much longer mate, only five home games left.

Yep, all because Chelsea are playing on the Thursday before in that Europa Conference sh*t. Another 2 Sunday games on the trot as we are at home to Arsenal the following Sunday.

This switch suits me so there’s at least one happy bunny as I’ll be flying back from the US Masters and will be home in time for kick off whereas with the original Saturday kick off I’d have missed it.

You going to the Masters but not sticking around for the Green Jacket @ The Butler Cabin part, Charnwood? :shock:

Unfortunately not Marko. I’m going with my son-In-law but only for the first two days as he and my daughter and the grand kids are going on holiday at the weekend so we’ll fly back to New York on the Saturday morning. We do have an invite into the locker room so I’m hoping to get to wear a green jacket 🤞. Feeling pretty excited as this is one tournament I’ve always wanted to go to and never thought it would happen. 🏌️‍♂️

Will no doubt get stick for saying this…….. but…… it is “THE” Golf tournament in my opinion. Yep, better than the British Open. May not be as difficult as the BO, but for entertainment and watchability ——>> US Masters all the way.
Really hope you get to put on a green jacket. I mean that’d be a thrill for me and I do not play golf! Great stuff. What a trip. 👍👌

I'm actually pleased i haven't got to witness this ongoing sh*t we produce week in, week out, and almost 100% certain again, against Arsenal. I've never been so happy to be missing a game in all truth.

I must admit a long weekend in Krakow is far more appealing, sadly I'm quite happy to check out of this dire season.

Yes - first time I have ever been happy for an international break to be honest!

It gets better Ian, we don’t play again until April. 👍👌😮

That’s two free weekends.
