Sadly it's getting to the point where staying at home and watching on TV is beginning to look like an attractive proposition. However we shall persevere, as we always do, mainly because we're all bonkers and love giving our time and cash away in return for being totally disrespected.

I’d never stay at home, can’t imagine watching a home game on the tele.

Fortunately I’m retired, relatively close to the ground and don’t book holidays during the season so it’s not that bad but I do feel for others not as fortunate as myself.

I must be a proper mug, just forked out another £48 for the Blackburn game when I could easily watch it erm ..................

The point is they don't schedule matches for an 8pm KO on a Sunday night (yet) but an Easter Bank Holiday Monday is the equivalent of a Sunday night and it's totally disrespectful.

At least it's still on a Saturday.

Plus given it's match day 44 and we're right in the thick of a promotion push you'd actually be crazy to not want to go

Unless someone puts a do not resucitate sign round your neck

Yea I know but it's a lot of brass almost every home game, I love the club and thats it.
As BB says , he's retired same as myself, forunately I can afford it, but I hate the messing us about, even worse are the night games like tomorrow, I have free games on my firestick but still want the match day expereince with mates having a few beers, well, quite a few really.

Tomorrow night's KO time is a right pain in the bum.

Would I go out on a Sunday night and then get to bed around 1-30am ? Well maybe 30/40 years ago but not these days and whilst you have to put up with it for the midweek games this was supposed to be a 3pm start so it's bloody annoying.

Sky do my head it and it's not like the TV games are spread fairly and evenly across the League which means the top clubs are at a disadvantage which ultimately can effect the outcome.

Unfortunately the clubs have sold their souls for the money....sod the fans. Sky can do what they like.

Sky TV. Fooking sh1t to some. Fooking Godsend to others. Definately the latter for me these days. Personally I'm far off retirement and work various shifts around the clock. I can't get to any away games and virtually my only chance of seeing us at home would be a Saturday afternoon 3pm slot so I'm very grateful we are on TV so much so I can tune in at home or at work. When I have all the time in the world and plenty of money to boot I would prefer to go to every game home and away but until then, stumpin up £20 a month for Sky Sports is most welcome.

While I can understand the frustration of others going by their comments on this subject I do think the benefits of football on TV, Leeds in particular far outweigh these frustrations. I know many people who watch Leeds and other teams on dodgy sticks for free and those like me who pay for a genuine subscription. I believe all these streams people watch illegally come via the Sky cameras. If they weren't recording the game, nobody would be watching anyone on TV end of.

In a nutshell if it wasn't Sky, it would be someone else paying for these season long rights and with that the ability to change kick off times and days at the drop of a hat. I'd prefer to voice my frustrations on the fact that national broadcasters like the BBC and ITV aren't remotely interested in bidding for any meaningful sports anymore. This is where the real anger should be directed in my opinion. And they have the brass neck to ask us to pay a mandatory licence fee for something nobody wants to watch. That is sheer lunacy and I can understand why thousands refuse to pay it.

That's the irony of it Jammy, the more successful you are the more likely the game with be moved for showing on Sky.

Lots of good points there, I moan a lot about Sky changing match times but that’s purely a selfish thing as it’s almost impossible to predict when a match will be changed making it nigh impossible to book flights & hotels at a reasonable cost. Still watch all the other matches on Sky so swings and roundabouts. 6.50 am flight this morning and already in the hotel room so off for a large fry and a couple of half’s of shandy.

Get down to the Moot Hall, down by the station. Lousy shandy, brilliant Leeds atmosphere. On game day there’s usually a Scandinavian brigade in there. Those guys know how to partaaaaay.
