It's rather curious that nothing has been confirmed on Sky Sports:

Or have I missed something?

Patience maybe?

I need to make plans! Train fares are not getting cheaper!

Between 8th August and 26th September, Newcastle United are shown 5 times on live tv.
Is there only one team in the Championship?.

Also, can't be bothered to look through all posts, so if this is a dodd then ever so sorry

Fair point. I think it's safe to assume the club have got it right though. I take it they'd be informed of the change in time before Sky make it public.

Sky have a must watch Championship game on Saturday 8th August 12.45 kick off

Southampton v Millwall,have I missed a season because I'm sure the Mighty Saints were in Division One the last time I looked.(As were Millwall)

Ah! I see that they've now updated the page, confirming the games. Now I can make plans for the first game of the season!

Only done as far as 19th September so far which is a bit surprising - normally they do the whole lot up until Xmas...

Didn't somebody put up a thread a week or two back saying the Newcastle game was going to be move to a 17:20 kick off? I'm sure they did. However, it seems to have been deleted.

And Sky had a TV deal to show all 3 divisions of the Football League the last time I looked.

Yes, I'm sure there was such a thread, Harold.

As it happens, Spacey, I seem to remember there was a thread about Newcastle v Reading being moved for TV..

Plus the 2 that BBC have chosen out of their first 4 tis a bit of a joke. They were a shit Premier League team and to me look like being a mediocre Championship team. I predict they will finish 5th/6th this season and will lose to Sheffield Utd in the Play-offs. Not quite what BBC and Sky are hoping for I don't think.

Not sure why people seem so galled that we're not featuring too much in the live games. I'm glad, not just for the 3 o'clock kick offs but also means we'll have more inside watching it at the ground as opposed to watching the TV.

Good, more drinking time on the train up.

how long is the train journey roughly? i was thinking of planing it!!

[handbags_harris]

From Kings Cross, anything between 3 and 4 hours depending on what train you catch.

Cross Country direct from Reading I'm not sure, but believe it's something like 5-6 hours???

[Royalee]

4 hours 15 minutes according to http://www.nationalrail.co.uk, 2 changes - not too bad.
