    Step 1 done by a streaming company winning CL rights.

    When the PL and EFL rights come up then Sky are in for a massive battle.

    I’m pretty sure the two hats at sky will move either the Wimbledon or Reading game to 12.30

    Who or where is “the victim” in the case of not paying for Sky, corporate greed and profit perhaps? Shoplifting is an unreal comparison because it has real victims, the keeper and customer.

    Note, for clarity I have a full Sky package covering everything only because I can afford to and importantly CHOOSE to. There would be no loss to anyone, only shareholder profit, if I elected not to subscribe?

    Sky game tonight going very much our way.
    7th place Luton losing 3-2 at Reading.
    We would be 8 points clear of Luton with 2 games in hand if it stays the same

    Reading were awful imho yet scored 3. Paudie finally nailed the fib he’s the best defender in L2 . Slow……….!
    Luton were the better but finishing not their best .

    We're now at the part of the season where TV games are announced on a rolling weekly basis, yesterday the games for the weekend of 7th March were announced with 3 league 1 games picked. https://www.efl.com/news/2026/february/05/see-the-latest-sky-sports-tv-selections/

    With how Burton have done against the top sides that game could come into consideration also the only other stand out game that weekend is Luton vs Stockport. If it does get moved it will be safe from a Thursday night as there's a full midweek fixture list the Tuesday before.

    Same with Wigan Away, that can't be moved to the Thursday 8pm slot due to both teams playing on Tuesday 10th March. Would prefer it if they kept it 3pm on the Saturday, we should be selling out that away end.

    Another selection week survived, it looks like Sky have given up on international breaks as they've only picked Harrogate vs Notts County as a 12:30 game on Sky sports+, everyone else stays as it is at 3pm on Sky Sports+.

    The Plymouth game should be safe from postponement due to internationals as one of the players who was called up for international duty was Law McCabe who had his loan ended in January. They have brought in Wes Harding who has played for Jamaica but hasn't played since 2024 so looks unlikely he will be called up unless the new manager wants him now that he's a regular starter at Plymouth whereas he was a back up at Millwall.

    I’m already expecting the Barnsley and Bolton games to be moved for Sky.

    Probably Thursday 16th for Barnsley

    Sell 5000 tickets 8 weeks in advance then tell everyone it’s a Thursday night and the game is on TV.

    And then plenty off refunds in the process..

    I'll have no choice to sell or get a refund.

    Therefore I hope sky don't interfere!

    Barnsley play the Tuesdays either side of the game so that will rule out it being moved to the Thursday or Monday, if it moves it will be to 12:30
