Srg Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Fines, bans etc incoming. Then just for a laugh, Sky should move every Leeds fixture or their opponents to Wednesday then Friday nights for the rest of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cam the Ram Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Leeds statement: http://www.leedsunited.com/news/article/tmkq6kplrq2613jrdaw1vsf4e Can't argue with it really. Four home games each would be much fairer but Sky obviously get a lot more viewers when the likes of Leeds, Derby and Forest are included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I get the jist of it, it is stupid to move games like away at Brighton to a Monday... But at the same time, it's the price of success. They're still a business, no one wants to watch Preston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lander Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 That official article reads like a massive dummy spit, not professional at all. I'm so glad we have seemingly level headed people in charge of our club. 3-0 tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 That is a very unprofessional statement. Although we all understand the issues, once football sold it's soul to Sky there was no turning back. As someone else said, in the unlikely event of Leeds being promoted this year would they refuse promotion due to potentially damaging fixture changes in the PL? I don't think so.

Rambalin Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Have read the statement what utter and total drivel Leeds United entered the competition and it's rules and broadcasting contracts.If they did not like those conditions they do not have to apply for entry to said league. The rubbish about being on sky too much and it's effects on attendance and players holds no water when put to the test. Their attendance when on or off TV are very much the same just like Derby's who have featured ten times on TV just the same has they have. It is about time the FL applied it's rules on fit and proper owners properly and banned this clown for good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reithe glas Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 The Premiership and associated Sky money are the holy grail for all clubs and fans. The expectation being the ability to buy better players, improve teams and maintain said Premiership status. The leagues, clubs and fans all knew this from day one. It's no good now bleating about the downside of it. Sky run the show...deal with it...that ship has sailed. It's also hypocritical of Leeds to harp on about being a "big club" with a European pedigree on one hand and go whinging when Sky treat them like one by showing their games more often.
