Presumably a Saturday 5/6pm, and maybe similarly on a Sunday? I don’t actually mind that as much as the evening ones, getting back home after an 8pm is a real ballache.

Every EFL team is getting 20 Tv matche

We can kiss goodbye to quite a few Saturday 3pm KO. 

Bit of a b*gger if you want to get the train instead of driving. A few pints helps numb the pain 😀

From a few sources;

In terms of the details of the new deal, no new broadcast slots will be created, with five Championship games and five League One and League Two games broadcast each standard weekend. That means there will be games on Friday evening and Sunday lunchtime, as well as three Championship Saturday 12.30 pm kick-offs.

Opening weekend will be a bit different though;

The 3pm Saturday blackout will remain, but will not apply to the opening weekend because the Premier League is not in action. It means Sky Sports can broadcast all EFL games that weekend, with two Championship games on Friday at 8pm, eight games on Saturday that will all kick-off at either 12.30pm, 3pm or 5.30pm, and then two more on Sunday at a time to be confirmed.

All midweek games will be broadcast live, as will all games on the final weekend of the season and on bank holidays, including Boxing Day and New Year's Day. For the first time, every Carabao Cup game will be broadcast live too.

A Leeds source suggests that Monday and Thursday nights are also possibilities. It also suggests a cap for any Club at 24 games a season therefore seems to be a more even spread across all Clubs than has been the case in the past.
