I'm almost certainly going to be in Turkey on holiday anyway so this is doubly tremendous news after the City game was moved to telly also.

Mine is an Efes!

Annoying as this will impact the crowd, atmosphere and 12.15 KO's are a ballache, but two games on telly should give us a bit of extra revenue!

That is indeed a bonus....if we can somehow do enough to make the PO's, then that'll bring in a bit more.  Throw in player sales in the summer and we may have enough for a slightly bigger squad for next season's rebuild.

Two league games in a row on t'box...that's pretty amazing actually.

What's also pretty amazing is that no one is moaning how it's ruined their day/weekend/month/year. Oh well, give it time and I'm sure they will...

I expect it's right royally buggered up Mrs. Flashheart's plans. She just doesn't know it yet.

I am a bit peeved about it changing as I am at a wedding that day that starts at 2. I have already had a word with the groom who has said the bride is refusing to put the start of the wedding back half hour( I think that if they were already married that would be grounds for divorce )

Is the groom a Swindon fan?

Why is he getting married during the football season?  8)....

He is & his missus had planned the wedding on that day because we didn't have a game that day, also it was about £1500 cheaper than having it outside of the season.

Halfway through the ceremony "YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!" and a leap into the air when we score will be perfectly reasonable.

Must be the same for all championship & premier league home teams sky screen at that time of day on a Saturday,very observant of you. You'd think with all that money sloshing about the likes of Chelsea would be able to afford a few bulbs, no excuses.

I remember that Wiltshire Don cunt that came on here.

Fair play to the fucker though, he came on here after getting dicked and took his medicine.

It would be good...unfortunately Franchise and Sky are bedfellows, they prefer Pardew/Lambert out written on bedsheets.

Much better to follow the example from this STFC televised game to make a point.
