Re: TV Fixtures
Until all fans start to organise and collaborate nothing is going to change. Plenty, including myself, will bitch and moan. Some, including myself, will miss games either through personal protest or logistics. But only concerted & significant boycotts of the ground will result in a change of attitude from the TV companies, leagues and clubs themselves. A crowd of 10 or 15k in the Emirates with no away fans would force the issue to be seriously looked at. Until then, they treat us like sh*t and we keep turning up.

Re: TV Fixtures
Looks like the rest of the January games have been chosen and looks like Wolves and Everton are untouched ( I think ).

Re: TV Fixtures
Absolutely spot on. I will always remember an interview Ken Bates did years ago when he was the supremo at Chelsea. It was aradio phone in and fans were bitcjing that tickets were too expensive and people were being priced out of watching. "Nonsense" said Bates, "in fact I could argue tickets are too cheap because we're selling out every week". Not quite the same point but certainly pertinent. Full houses , at least in commercial terms, means everything in the garden is rosy.OrrMakesItThree wrote: ↑Tue Oct 25, 2022 4:19 pm Until all fans start to organise and collaborate nothing is going to change.

But as you say if T V games were regularly featuring half empty stadia the appeal of broadcasting them would be diminished.

Companies lining up to have banners replacing empty seats.
During lockdown they were stopped.
Would make tv companies richer. And be worth a lot more to the clubs.

Is it possible that the Spurs game could move again? If their Champions League fixture the following week is on a Tuesday could they move our game back to Saturday again?

Re: TV Fixtures
April broadcast fixtures out in 30 minutes. Lots of *** matches dues to unknowns in Europe and FA Cup. Should include our postponed home match against Newcastle.

Re: TV Fixtures
Needs to be something in place for teams in the EL or ECL that games that dont need to be moved to Sunday (Like saints at home) should stay on a Saturday.
There are plenty of games that have to be moved to sunday for European commitments, use them for TV is need be
