Matches Lincoln at home - live on sky

Just come on to ask the same question, Sarge. I don't have Sky so surely the right response from the club is to make a Sky voucher code available to season ticket holders.
...game moved to Fri 26th March 7.45pm kick off .... double f**k off sky tv
 
Bloody sky tv. Dont have sky, dont want sky, paid for st, now means have to buy day pass £9.99 to watch a game already paid for assuming we still wont be able to attend.

Atleast its not 6pm. But still pissed me off, I thought we had a chance to snatch a win off Apples, no chance now as we never perform well on Sky unless I'm actually at the game.

Check out reddi.soccerstreams.net before you buy the day pass. Seems to carry sky feed, did v Tranmere okay.

....Idve thought its highly unlikely those tiers, as implemented previously, albeit briefly, that allow a limited amount fans in to live games will be reintroduced before Easter

though as our blonde fuhrer addresses the nation later with his 'roadmap', ( I really detest that soundbite) , later today,
so who, including Bojo himself, actually knows?
 
Typical that its a home game, meaning it wont be on iFollow and those without Sky will have to pay for a home game!
 
Well........at the risk of getting a load of abuse back, an alternative view might be:

- This helps to raise the profile of the club especially if it's a top of the table clash
- Do OUFC get a 'match fee' from Sky?
- If we don't get a 'match fee', Sky do provide a lot of money through the EFL deal which feeds down to the clubs and so are entitled to show matches. If they can't show the matches, the money dries up.
- It's fairly rare that we're on Sky and so hardly a recurring ball-ache

I have both a ST and Sky and so am no better or worse off by this announcement, just pointing out a few other aspects.

Maybe you could offer Sky Go access to those ST holders without Sky :)
 
Do OUFC get a 'match fee' from Sky?
Yes. But there’s really no need for them to have told the club / EFL that they have to disable the feed for ST holders. They could easily have chosen to let it ride. 4,000 odd ST holders (total number of households is less than that) is nothing. Plus a big chunk of those households probably already have Sky Sports anyway.

By all means disable the ability for non-ST holders to purchase the match through iFollow - that still leaves the majority of OUFC fans plus 100% of the Lincoln fans needing to buy from them - but not flicking the switch to let home ST holders view the game they’ve already paid for is needlessly greedy. Everybody wins bar the fan in this scenario, as usual, yet without us and the investment we have all made this season they would have no product to sell. Let alone double sell in this instance.

Poor from Sky. They didn’t need to do it.
