Watford Game moved for TV

[SJN-Fox]

Well folks, I hoped you all enjoyed your last 3pm Saturday game this season. It would appear that the Watford game has been moved to acomodate the tv cameras.

No surprises there then as we all predicted it. Let's just hope we're still in with a shout of things then though!

Well, that's just great. Since the Burton game my season ticket will have delivered one home league game that I've been able to make. I might as well have got a reasonable pile of twenty pound notes and chucked them on the fire.

I hope the club are aware of this.

 

[H T B]

Whilst it was expected. It really is taking the proverbial.

If I can bothered, but will it make any difference? A friend of mine has already contacted the club about the moving of the Cardiff game two times ( we lost some hotel reservations, me twice, together with advance rail tickets, which is the reason I haven't gone today, paying twice to see a game is enough IMO ), and he just got an email back thanking him for his observations.

Excellent response.

It really is a pitiful way to run a club.

The email is poor form but there's nothing the club can do about games being moved.

I beg to differ. They don't want to do anything about matches being moved, they could try to do something if they wanted to act in the best interests of the community.

How? The club have repeatedly said they lose money on TV games.

How? The club have repeatedly said they lose money on TV games.

By getting together with the other teams in the Football League and declaring that enough is enough, and other such statements. That they won't is their choice.

Maybe we are but others won't play ball? I know there are some options but none that are realistic.

Must be a standard response, I got one like that during 'Chaingate'.

If you'd like to believe that this club might be doing that then good for you Matt, I'm far too cynical to believe such a thing.

It's shocking how quickly everyone forgot about it - it's almost like nobody cared.

I don't believe it for one second, I just pointed but they might be! Surely the lack of Sky money would be more detrimental at the minute?

 

[Lako42]

Well that's ****ed what was to be a big day out for me and a few of the lads who were meeting up for the 1st time in ages, ticket will be returned asap.

****ing ****s, I'm totally fuming.

 

[homer]

Who needs Saturday games anyway ?

Modern football is truly shit

Who knows?

I'm ****ed if I can work out what is going in the heads of the owners, income bears no relation to expenditure so far.
