City v Stevenage live on Sky

[memoman]

What's the fee we receive for this? Will it make up for lost gate revenue because of the Rugby clash?

Why Sky would want to feature any Satanage game is totally beyond comprehension ! (facepalm)

Sarcasm or bias? Why should we deserve to be shown more? Anyway Mr sheringham is in charge now so expect them to play not too differently to us. Would have preferred an away game but good to get another chance to improve our TV record. Will see how the season is going before deciding whether to attend or save a few quid and watch it at home.

Neither ! They have an obnoxious owner, who misused his position on the conference board to constantly put the boot into our club in 2003-4, when we were desperately trying to save it ! Traditionally, particularly away from home, they have played an appalling brand of (what I struggle to describe as) football. So yes in that respect I do think that we are far more deserving of TV coverage.

Yes, I expect that the match has been chosen because of Sheringham's appointment, however "don't count your chickens" as if they get off to a dreadful start, by mid October they could have Westley back in charge !

Because they assume we'll both be challenging for promotion come October. Or alternatively they reckon we'll both be in a relegation dogfight.
