6 I make it.

Although wouldn't be suprised if "police" got hold of the Leeds game and moved that to 1230.

This influx of numerous 12.30 kick offs each week is just totally inconsiderate. Just have 1 game there.

What stupid is this is all these games at 12.30 are just to work around the 3pm football blackout in law... If Sky and the clubs are just going to screw over the fans to get more on TV let's just get rid of the 3pm blackout. It's daft to add insult to injury by making away fans lives hell to get to 12.30pm games.

Reckon attendances are going to take a big hit... Not because of the TV so much as the kick off times.

[Mattyblue]

Nonsense of this deal, *eight* games kick off at 12.30 on Saturday, just one game at all on Sunday even though there’s no Premier League 🤷‍♂️

[chaddyrovers]

Every EFL game is available to watch on Sky this weekend. 

It will be very interesting weekend to see what teams starts well. 

[GHR]

Though perhaps not particularly enjoyable for Sunderland fans heading for Cardiff, Pompey fans to Leeds and Swansea fans to Boro with 5am alarms; nor Donkey Lashers getting home from Crawley, Rotherham fans from Exeter and Cambridge United fans from Stockport in the small hours of Sunday.

Fully understand that point and my mate who is die hard Blackpool Fan said he won't be going to Crawley on Saturday cos of kick off time and travel there and back. He will be watching at home. He is already annoyed by the Blackpool season ticket price and lack of signings this summer

[Upside Down]

Well I hope you informed him that this is what the clubs and the league wanted.

[philipl]

Still no Rovers TV offer

I love watching Blackburn Rovers, playing at Ewood Park, at 3pm on a Saturday.

Just as it should be.

and you can but football is changing and I not bothered about kick off times personally, Yes I fully understand that some people like their football at 3pm on Saturday but I also accept and understand that Football clubs wanted move money TV rights so it was needed more TV games to achieve this goal for EFL and their clubs. I wasn't bothered about the amount of games moved in JDT first season. The Burnley game was always being moved for TV reasons. there is 6 games at 3pm kick off of Saturday out of 10 home games before the Third round of FA cup. 4 been moved for TV purposes. Plus Home Boxing day game at 3pm.

Do you ever consider anyone but yourself if you  get portsmouth sunderland on a monday night  its 2 days off work possibly a nights hotel but your ok sat in front of a tv, bollocks to you work nights.

[Aqualung]

I'm still undecided on whether I should subscribe to RoversTV or not. 

I normally buy a match day pass or pay for a monthly pass but those options aren't up on the website anymore.

I think it's been well established that chaddy lives in chaddy land and if all's well there then it matters not what's going on for other people.

They are the worst TV offering in the whole of the EFL and I'm sure lower down the pyramid.

Absolute shit.

[JHRover]

I had a look on Rovers TV website last night.

The latest videos are 2x brief highlights (goals) from the behind closed doors game against Tranmere and a piece on having the Ewood pitch ready for the new season. Other than a couple of interviews with Eustace, a thing about the pink shirt and Markanday there's nothing since the end of last season

No goals, highlights or replays of friendlies against Stockport, Wigan, Morecambe, Nuremberg or Accy Stanley. 

No recent interviews with players or any coaching staff.

No training footage, behind the scenes coverage, build up for the season.

Nothing.

Beyond abysmal in this day and age.

Oh well thats fine then.

Then why not put on Rovers TV too? Start delivering a better product there. It doesn't bother me, its a minor irritant, but not everyone has X or visits YouTube, it's a pretty easy thinklg, especially as they are branded RoversTV on the highlights.

I agree totally Donis 

We should be using our Rovers TV much more in terms of interviews with staff and players, The Owners and CEO communicating to the Fan base, etc

Yes

Not sure if this game (due to the Sky thing) will be available in all the usual territories, although if you can make it to Italy, then that seems to work well

The Pizzas are on order and I am leaning towards a draw.

I will have a Rome around the internet shortly and see if I can log on. I hope the pasta ball properly tonight and Bag io a goal or two.
