rondy 0 Posted February 7, 2011 Pete, do you know if the Ipswich game at Easter is going to be shown live on either bbc or sky? I imagine it would be, but at the moment I dont think it is as cant see it listed anywhere.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would presumably preclude anybody showing another game at the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Juler 141 Posted February 7, 2011 It''s only an England U18 match, so can''t see that being an issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don''t have Sky, but presumably they don''t show matches in opposition to one another, so it would be the BBC or nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Juler 141 Posted February 7, 2011 My hopes are on BBC too, would be a great excuse not to go to Portman Road! They''ve screened both of the South Wales derbies this season, so fingers crossed. I''m sure we''ll find out soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am a Banana 0 Posted February 7, 2011 why don''t teams say no to sky? It can''t be beneficial for the players? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I am a Banana 0 Posted February 7, 2011 [quote user="s10_yellow"]Money.[/quote]but if we were to play at the same time as everyone else instead of a silly time it would benefit the players, and more chance of a win, so more points, and get more money from going up than a game on sky?!!?!?

Gingerpele 0 Posted February 7, 2011 How does playing 3 hours 20 mins earlier in the day benefit the players? They are professional footballers. The time of kick-off shouldn''t effect them (as long as its not silly, like 2 in the morning) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canary Man of Kent 0 Posted February 8, 2011 I''m sure Ipswich was moved from Friday to Thursday night for TV coverage - BBC I would imagine, they seem to show all local derbies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Juler 141 Posted February 8, 2011 [quote user="Canary Man of Kent"]I''m sure Ipswich was moved from Friday to Thursday night for TV coverage - BBC I would imagine, they seem to show all local derbies.[/quote]It was moved due to "concerns playing the match on a bank holiday" I believe, nothing public about being on TV at least.As for those who say "stuff Sky", it''s all part of the TV contract, if Sky say jump, we''re forced into saying how high up until 14 days prior to the original date of the fixture.

James Kent 0 Posted February 8, 2011 Surely even there is no TV coverage for the Ipswich game, the prospect of an online stream is still quite good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
