Lord Duckhunter Posted 22 June, 2023 Share Posted 22 June, 2023 Waiting till July 8th for the other tv fixtures is a fucking piss take. I understand during the season because the broadcasters will want to see how the season plays out, but fuck me, surely the league could have given them the fixtures yesterday & announced Aug TV games at the same time today. Do they need over 2 weeks to study which fixtures would make good viewing. I could fucking do that in 10 mins. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly wasn’t one of those pining to be relegated as we could comfortably be down here for a good few years.

The Athletic did a piece on the new EFL/Sky deal last month that says: Quote As part of the deal, the EFL said that Sky Sports will release their TV picks for up to the FA Cup third round ahead of a ball being kicked in the 2023-24 season. So should at least get significant advanced notice compared to the PL. Some people might be unpleasantly surprised regarding the amount of games that could be moved away from Saturday 3pm though. Of the twelve Championship games each weekend, five will be broadcast by Sky (on a combination of TV & streaming). This means that those five cannot be played at Sat 3pm as the blackout remains in place. The plan is that a typical week will see these split out with one on Friday night, two on Saturday lunchtime (streaming) and the final two at some point Sunday or Monday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks a tough start on paper - But if we want promotion we should be winning those. Thoughts Wednesday have just sacked their manager/coaching setup, which for a newly promoted team that needs momentum and to strengthen efficiently seems a poor decision. Norwich at home will be a good test - one we shouldn't lose and you would hope we win (but manager needs time yada yada) I think Plymouth (A) will be tough. Good manager, great atmosphere around the club, carrying a lot of momentum and confidence in how they play. QPR are not very good - this is a great chance for a win 😄 Sundarland (A) will be very tough, and a promotion contender 6 pointer to boot. Leicester (H) - Promotion favourite at home, if they live up to their billing that's a must win. Ipswich (H) - Promotion favourite at home, if they live up to their billing that's a must win. Boro (A) - another that will be very tough, and a promotion contender 6 pointer to boot. Leeds (H) - What a run? just going to predict a win here for the hell of it. Then finally, Stoke (A) and Rotherham (H), and relax. Reality is we have to start hot in August (very un saintsy) and then carry that into a very tough run of games in September. Martin does know the league in all fairness, and if we can be in touching distance after Leeds we should be setup nicely for the rest of the season. Not sure how people think this is a tough start, although of course at this time there are a lot of unknowns for the season to come. We don't even know how good our team/squad might be. But looking at these fixtures i would say; Wednesday newly promoted, might struggle as many do at the quite big jump up, especially with no new manager in place yet and only 6 weeks left for him to get them into shape etc. Norwich no idea what to expect from them this season but they have no big funds and thus i expect them to be mid table ish or a bit lower. Not gonna be top 6. Plymouth, like the Owls, as good as a season they just had, they will probably stumble a bit, but might get off to a good start with feel good factor. Not top 6. QPR got off to a good start last term but then slumped badly. Not top 6, but maybe they have a good start again. Sundarland, like a lot of teams who fail in the play off's, likely they will slump a bit this season and not be top 6 again. Leicester, might lose a lot of their better players and by all accounts have a limited spend budget. They might be bottom half. Ipswich, we should be winning these sorts of games. They will not be top 6. Boro, similar to Sunderland, they may have peaked this last season and not do so well. It is often the case in the championship i have noted. Leeds, toughest game of the lot so far as i can determine. All this said, pretty much totally unknown as i said at the beginning as we have no idea at all who we will have lining up for us and how good RM may or may not be. Nonetheless i am very excited for the season as we have something to play for. In the EPL we have nothing to play for other than survival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, 3 teams that have been promoted, still carrying the feel good factor which may cause some decent early season results, 2 relegated teams, who like us are in real unknown place at the moment, new managers, players to come and go yet 2 play off teams who may or may not continue that form, but Boro one of promotion favourites Norwich I don't expect to be as bad as last year And QPR, I remember a lot of defeats to these buggers We could get off to a flier, but, with new tactics to learn, players to integrate it could also be a slower than expected start, looking forward to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol City brought the whole bit last time we played them, Birmingham City, Coventry, Ipswich, Plymouth, Watford all could fill it if doing well. Plymouth will probably fill most away ends this season, especially where they haven't played that team for a while. Despite the drop off in tourist fans there should be decent attendances in most games around the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand during the season because the broadcasters will want to see how the season plays out, but fuck me, surely the league could have given them the fixtures yesterday & announced Aug TV games at the same time today. Do they need over 2 weeks to study which fixtures would make good viewing. I could fucking do that in 10 mins. It is frustrating I agree and would be great if it was done quicker. But I’m guessing they’d need to decide what fixtures they want, then wait for confirmation from the clubs and the police etc that it is feasible to be moved to a Friday, or any day other than a scheduled match day. Then if one team can’t fulfil that, onto the next chosen game and wait for their responses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
