talksport.com/football/1859344/sky-sports-major-broadcasting-change-efl/I wonder what impact the new tv deal will have on season ticket sales. It is not just the uncertainty about just when the games will take place, but also that at least 24 of our games will be televised by Sky next season. I struggle with evening kick-offs, and with 3 family season tickets, I may find that I miss more than I attend at some cost. With every League One and League Two first game of the season televised, will these games be played in front of fewer and fewer supporters. The atmosphere at Loftus Road this season has been really amazing, but there were a lot of open spaces towards the end of Ainsworth's tenure. It makes one wonder if any new stadium extra capacity would be a waste? As ever, the television money is very welcome, but it is yet another step in the gradual Sky erosion.

It wont make a difference to me, I will still buy 2 tickets an even hope to increase that to 3 tickets if I can get a seat next to my current seats. I really dont like Sky and refuse to purchase sky Sports package as its all that is wring with current football.

Plus for me being abroad every time Sky or one of the other main providers take one of our games I lose most ability to get a feed, and have to watch BBC text updates and wait for the replays - at least I see the games but knowing the score in advance.
I did have Sky at one time, (not strictly legal) but it started to cost too much then they cut my signal (except for free to air programs) during a showpiece purge to stop overseas viewers, from when they make a fortune, but Sky have to show they block a few to stay within their licence. Ask how many Sky boxes and the like are in Spain for example.
We will soon, probably next season, have at least one live game on TV 7 days a week. It's killing the game for supporters as well as players - listen to what Klopp said recently.
Meanwhile I am an expert at Place in the Sun, Four in a Bed and Come Dine with me. Do not watch Sky News out of principle.
