@chaddyrovers do you think its fair to "give options" for fans and indeed is it thinking of fans. To show SEVEN EFL games at the same time (an awkward time of half 12) every Saturday? Considering the inconvenience to fans.

You asked the similar questions last season. Going on and on. You know why the 7 games now

Midweek games are inconvenience for me, given I work nights but I have accepted that as it's my choice.

I still am none the wiser as to finding a valid justification and it wasnt a question to ask what best suits you personally.

You asked similar all season like a broken record week after week. 

You know why.  Clubs and EFL wanted more revenue for TV rights for that to happen, more games had to be available for coverage. Fairly simple reason. More coverage for more revenue 

[roversfan99]

Thats not justification.

Lots more TV games as the clubs (but in the end the players and agents ) wanted more cash. Yep, all agreed.

But seven games at half 12 on a Saturday, why? (No deflections please, specifically answer the question about seven games at half 12).

We all know the why= money.

But that still doesn't make it right. 

You'd have thought a match going fan would have some empathy with other match going fans, but as you've demonstrated before, that isn't the case.

There have always been midweek games, long before Sky came along.

We play Millwall at Ewood in a 12.30 kick off soon - do you really think it's fair on their supporters setting off at some ungodly hour?

He will wriggle out of an answer then say down the line that hes already answered.

Eventually, I suspect, there will come a point when it will all implode.

People have been saying this for years and years.

It never will unfortunately.

Exactly.

There's huge untapped foreign markets to go at yet.

See what the Spanish and Italians are doing; league games being played overseas.

It'll be the same here eventually.

Yep, if the NFL about to implode? Of course not, and neither is the Premier League... what future the wider pyramid has is another issue.
