Anyone in the know on here know whether Rochdale away will be on telly or not?
Potentially yes. All League One games are kicking off at 17:30, I would presume to avoid the 3pm TV restrictions.
It's whether they choose to show play off chasers vs. relegation fighters. Or they might decide to show Wigan and Blackburn games if 1st place is still up for grabs...
Unless everything else is absolutely done and dusted, and the solitary game that anything at all hangs on is ours. No. Sky hate showing Charlton.
They're going to be fucked then when we're in the play-off final.
Answering the OP. I would imagine that we are going to be one of only a couple of games that have something riding for both teams. Wigan & Blackburn will both be promoted by then, although they may show Wigan just to be there to give them the trophy.
Doesn't bother me in any case as I'm going to be there. Why not do the same.
My mate is MD at Leeds. Not a happy club atm. They expected to go up this season, I think Sky expected it as well. I suspect there will be less Leeds games next season.

It's been the same for eight years, don't see that changing any time soon...

Blackburn v Oxford Utd Blackburn may need to win to confirm title or may already have won it.
Doncaster v Wigan Ditto for Wigan.
Fleetwood v Walsall Minor chance of Walsall going down.
Gillingham v Plymouth A win for Plymouth may put them in the playoffs.
Northampton v Oldham Two teams that could need a win to stay up.
Portsmouth v Peterborough Unlikely that Portsmouth can get anything, Peterborough's season is done.
Rochdale v Charlton You know.
Rotherham v Blackpool Nothing on this. Rotherham in the playoffs, Blackpool done.
Scunthorpe v Bradford City Scunthorpe may need a win to get to playoffs, nothing for Bradford.
Shrewsbury v MK Dons Both teams likely to know their final place - Shrews in 3rd, MK Down.
Southend v Bristol Rovers Ultimate mid-table nothing match.
Wimbledon v Bury Maybe Wimbledon need to win to stay up, Bury buried already.
So as it stands I would put us at third chance of being on, after Blackburn and Doncaster games, as Sky like games that end with teams actually winning things (understandably).
So I think the ideal results tonight to narrow that third down a bit and to help our play-off chances would be:
Bradford v MK - Draw Rovers v Wigan - Away Donny v Blackburn - Away Oldham v Southend - Home (sorry Chris) Rochdale v Plymouth - Home Shrewsbury v Peterborough - Home
That would leave only Plymouth and Portsmouth still realistically able to catch us. Blackburn guaranteed promotion. A Wigan win (or hopefully a Blackburn defeat) on Saturday would then seal the title for the Latics. MK would have a mountain to climb to stay up. Dale and Oldham still with all to play for...

If Plymouth lose tonight then Id expect them to lose on Saturday against Rotherham
We'd only need three points then to secure the Play-Off spot which we could do Saturday ourselves

Certainly cant see any standout games from that final day apart from Northampton v Oldham
They’ve got a show at least one match no reason why they won’t show us.
That's plenty of reason to think it won't be us.

Past evidence backs up my claim by the way.

If they win their remaining three games and we lose both of ours they can finish two points above us?

Charlton 3-1 Leyton Orient ring any bells?
