It isn't even our game that is being show on TV. Brilliant.

Glad to see, from club site, that the club opposed this.

Given various recent precedents (eg Blackpool away not on Easter Monday after all) I don't think fans should regard the Easter fixtures as worth the paper they are written on.

Easter Monday was always a big day in the football calendar - third game in four days - same for every club. No, let's have another Tuesday night instead, Bah.

And Reading had specially moved their QPR game to Good Friday as well.

I suppose the good news is that once we get into a relegation battle that Sky might show a few of our games as well.

Not if Leeds are playing on the same day. WTF is it with SKY and those C*nts? After this Wednesday it will be 3 times in 11 days, on top of the umpteen times they`ve been shown already.
Big team in the championship yes I know, bit what the f*ck is the oxf*rd fest with them, just a average mid table team?

They get more viewers than any other Championship team. More viewers = more advertising money = Leeds being shown all the time.

Gutted about this being changed, one of the awaydays that was pencilled in. May still be tempted closer to the time

Disappointed to see Villa not reciprocating the £20s plenty like last year.

Next season we'll all be moaning about how Accrington are charging £25 and Oldham aren't reciprocating the 20s plenty.

Took the decision that I am only willing to pay to see one away loss and the Fulham game appeared more appealing due to being easier to get to with trains, sadly OUT for this now

Me and the boy in for this. Train and hotel for his birthday "Treat". Bless him. Still, a few beers and a curry for me.

Given the change of manager I'm now more inclined to make the game now, we will at least be competitive.
