See next Saturday's Villa game is on Sky. I know that many lower league games on Sky attract a lesser crowd but does this equate to the Championship too? There were nearly 29,000 v Brighton so will the Villa game being on Sky mean a smaller crowd than this or as it's such a high profile game it will be nearly full again regardless? Some fans would choose to save cash and watch on the telly no doubt.

"Selections for 19 November – mid-January – will be made by 30 September"

Will we be hearing anything today I wonder? So far, it's always been a few days after the dates previously given so maybe next Wednesday?

Just about right mate. Derby Forest 100%.
