Twice in a week!
Why twice in a week? We aren't that attractive are we?
Unless they are assuming we will have a big name manager by then

They're clearly hoping for the possibility of another 7-0.

Lots of goals.
f*****g w****r that Australian ...... ridiculous kick off times, ridiculous days too, how about some of those multi-millions shared between the Premiershit elite finding their way to OUFC?, Maybe that would fund buying the stadium? .... SATURDAY 3pm should be when football matches are played

2 live sky games - that 0 points right there then
You just know that will be mentioned. During each game.They're clearly hoping for the possibility of another 7-0.

Absolutely and given they state tv coverage does not affect attendances no reason not to be 3pm.....oh silly me my mistake tv controls when games should start and the fans can do one!
Not as if those games will attract a wider audience either
yep ...... smacks of contractual obligations ( to screen a few lower league matches per season) being met, and b*****s to football fans of the clubs 'selected' from Rupert Murdoch
Will be interesting to see how many we take to Portsmouth. Not exactly fair on the Scunthorpe fans travelling 3 hours for an early game either.
Fans really don't matter.

Has Frank tipped off Sky that he's taking the job?!?!
Why else would they have us on twice in a week, when there must be more meaningful games to cover?

I'm at Holland v England on the Friday night. Was all set to book my return flight into Southampton for 11am on the Saturday last night but held off
Glad I did now!
According to the EFL site, the deadline to notify clubs of these games being selected was 19th Jan and fixture changes are supposed to be publicly announced by the EFL within 3 working days of being picked.
Wonder why it has taken until now to announce (by all clubs looking at number of articles on various club websites today)

EFL's Shaun boycott Harvey has a tendency to change rules when and where it suits him .... law unto himself

Having paid for 46 league matches I'd be seriously annoyed if we lost iFollow coverage, particularly as not many providers overseas will carry these matches
Engineering work between Southampton and Portsmouth harbour on March 25th...

Pompey at Fratton will be a great day. Selfish I know but makes no difference to us what day of the week or time of day.plenty of time for a few pre match drinks. Can't wait bring it on

T.V. and the football masters really could not give a toss about the fans, but football sold its soul to T.V years ago and due to the obscene levels of spending which is now so out of control in the PL the need for Sky cash is not just desired it is vital. This spending has always affected smaller clubs in so many ways and this is just another way it does so. Only an hour or so from Portsmouth so does not affect me asmuch as some of you.

My word we do like a moan as a fan base. We moan if we are last on the highlights show, moan we never get picked for TV games then moan when we do get picked for tv.
If we want to go up then get used to kick off times being all over the shop.

I`m an "old fashioned" supporter...I don`t care if we are on the telly or not....I like going to games.
Given the 'religious ' connotations of Good Friday etc what time do the pubs open , if at all, before the now stupid kick off time for the televised Scunthorpe game?

Most hate what Sky has done to football but want us to spend far beyond what our gates could ever generate. We wouldnt have got anything like the money we did for Roofe, O'Dowda and Johnston had it not been for Sky pumping silly money in to the Championship. The PL is worlds apart from that again.
We all know the club has minimal income on matchdays,other than gate monies.
Soooooooo day/date and time changes apart,what’s the problem-OUFC will no doubt get additional monies, or is that not approved of either !
