Sky are very strange, they put you on about 13 times in one season the other year when you were shit, now you're good you can't get on.

That season was shit for ST holders, I missed 4 of the games because I couldn't get cover at work.

Wait until you get the "SKY-LIVE-Curse"

Blues have had it for years, most recently at Burton.

The Villa were selected for 'glamour'...'name'....'history'...and so on.....~imo ~
If you want ratings on TV, you choose the Leeds'..theVillas'....and any Relegated club.

Hopefully, when Bruce/Terry have done their work, you will have LESS HOMES and MORE AWAYS on TV.

YOU ARE an Attraction...for SKY....... as you will be throughout the Season......

Cardiff vs Leeds on Tuesday 26th is now on Sky. That's 6 of our opening 14 fixtures that's been selected for the cameras - don't care when the kick off doesn't change but it's disruptive to those wanting to book travel/accommodation for long treks.

It was already a Wednesday night so not that bothered about that, the crowd will still be good cos it's Villa and if they're still doing well they should sell out

No chance they'll sell it out, they had 3,000 up at Barnsley the other week on a Saturday.

They were still a bit shit then though weren't they, think that was the start of their good form. Few more good results and I'd expect them to sell out.

Our game against Reading has been put back to Monday night for tv coverage. Must have been impressed with us against Leeds!

Seems very strange to only see Wolves on there once (especially as Brum are on 4 times!). Other than that I think it is quite a good varied selection.

I know right, we couldn't buy a win on Sky until recently. Used to hate seeing us on the line-up. We seem to have broken that curse at the moment though, so quite happy we are on as I don't get to go to every game.
