    Well that fks up childcare for the day, although at least ot wasn't moved to the Friday. 
  • Happy with that, as has already been said more time in the pub.

  • Perfect for me as it's the day I come home from holiday. 
    No need to rush now.
  • Absolute disgrace, already have train booked and living in Manchester not sure how easy it will  be to rearrange. Still who cares about CAFC season ticket holders living outside the perceived catchment area. 
  • Oh great - we love to perform when on national tele!

  • Cant make that game as on holiday,  was hoping it would be moved though to the Sunday. Only the second home game except covid  I will miss in 23 years.
  • Well that's a fucker, got my first ST in over 20 years was looking forward to a normal football day and then traveling back to Leicestershire and get home in time to see highlights on Quest and MoD!
    Oh well have to change arrangements I suppose!

    😅 think he'll have to go for a sleepover instead... maybe it's not so bad after all 
  • Would like to see viewing figures for L1 games on Sky. I can't imagine it's many 
  • Being on Sky will hinder those overseas who want to watch via Charlton TV, unless they mess around with VPN's and regions that are allowed to show it
  • Perfect for me as it's the day I come home from holiday.

    Sarfend ain’t that far.

    Easier to get a dodgy sky stream though

    Really unfortunate, the Premier League kicks off a week after the Football League, so the chances of it being televised were higher than normal, although unexpected.

    I rarely book train travel now before Sky announce the games they are covering.
  • get in !!!............go on holiday that day and will be safely in a pub in the Isle of Wight by then

  • Being on TV, how much additional revenue does the club accrue?

    Sky haven’t cared about football fans in England for a very long time. They’re certainly not going to care about fans of a third division club.
