The Salford/Sky arrangement is already becoming painful to endure and the season is still six weeks away. Already we've got Salford v Stevenage on Sky and I'd bet my life savings their game v Leeds will be too. 

Evidence of course that selection for live broadcast isn't necessarily motivated by who has the biggest fanbases but by who can pull the right favours at Sky hq.

It's hard not to suspect a fix there with that draw. When Sky run the whole thing including draw it can be done. Why can't the draw be held by the Football League and be operated by Football League executives rather than the Sky clique?

I can (hopefully) see one or two League clubs begin to question this 'arrangement' before too long. Neville earning a fortune as Sky's poster pundit, part owner of a member club, receiving a completely disproportionate amount of coverage and publicity, receiving sponsorship income from Sky Bet and god knows how much from these games they are going to be put on tv. 

It's completely wrong and shouldn't be allowed. Neville should have to cease his employment with Sky if he's carrying on with this Salford stunt and Sky should cease their sponsorship of Salford too.

“Who we picking then?” “Well Leyton Orient won the league last year to return after a recent demise and lost a hugely popular person in football in recent weeks. It would be a great tribute” “But what about Salford?” “Agreed, stick Salford on”

Leyton Orient win the title yet Salford v Stevenage shown live!!. What an insult to Justin Edinburgh

 

 

That really is fucking shocking from Sky having Salford on first. Orient have just lost Justin Edinburgh, are back in the league, came up as champions, are at home the first game, and they put Salford on instead, solely because of the manc links.
