Won't be Fulham, they don't draw big tv audiences and have poor away followings. It will clearly be Leeds again, by far and away the biggest draw in the championship. Cardiff and wolves I suspect will have their fair share televised. Pity for their supporters with the awful kick times for these matches, Saturday lunchtime and even worse Friday nights.
Of course the Football League Trophy is also a Football League competition.
Sky's website is also there to promote Sky.
What sounds better: "55 championship games, (every championship club to be shown home at once,) and 20 games combined from League 1 and League 2, and 15 playoff games, and 15 League Cup games, and a selection of Football League Trophy games," or just simply: "112 Football League games?"
(Could as has been pointed out even be an error.)
The contract is from 2012-2015. The new contract is from 2015-2018.

TV SELECTION: @LUFC v @Boro has been selected by @SkySports for live coverage on Sat 16th Aug (12:15pm KO) #TVgame
They always do it either 1 by 1 or a couple at a time. As for Leeds v Middlesbrough.........that sounds like such a potentially interesting and exciting game (not). Probably be like most of Leeds live games last season, dull as dishwater.
Does anyone know what fee clubs get for a live TV game? Is is the same for Championship matches and League 1/2?
For this season (may change for next season as it's a new deal) in the Championship it's £80k for the home team and nothing for the away team, in L1/L2 it's £30k for the home team and £10k for the away team.
Clearly the post was against forum rules though. Someone else took the effort to translate the post so it was not just me that thought that.
Against forum rules? Wow. I was posting it directly from twitter as the football league twitter feed were the ones to announce the TV selections. I thought the twitter handles were pretty self explanaitory so didn't bother repeating the original content.
I simply won't bother next time, as I can't be bothered with petty arguments, it's a forum thread about football fixtures for pity sake, there are more important things in life to worry and take issue about. :cool:
Watford Football Club hosting Athletic Football Club Bournemouth (formerly known as Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic Football Club) could be selected for a televised game in September.

At least this season, they won't gave any issue by struggling to shown every Championship side at home once.
Wigan in the Europa last season, seemed to make it hard for Sky to fit something in

Fair enough then, certainly misleading though.
Leeds v Middlesbrough selected on Sat 16th Aug.
Where is Aug 23rd selection ?
They were on far too much last season, they should be on every week this season for the comedy:D

Translated as ;-)
Luton Town v Plymouth Argyle
Burton Albion v Portsmouth
Nottm Forest v Derby County

Didn't think it needed translating but thanks anyway!
So including the cup games Derby, Nottingham Forest and Cardiff have already been selected twice whilst half the Championship await their first game.
It's also convention to provide a source. I don't see the problem.

The Football League twitter is confusing for some , I only posted to make it clearer
I'm not worried and I wasn't bothered that you "translated" for me, hence the big smilie face originally. *big thumbs up smilie and high five*
That post was against forum rules,;-)
