Looking forward to this seasons fixture list being announced on Thursday.
Looking forward with great trepidation to announcements on KO times and the actual day of the week when televised.
I can foresee a lot of disappointment from ST Holders (in particular) and supporters in general when the TV announcements are made.
Hopefully I’m wrong. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Just wondering how the new TV schedule will affect international viewers. I’m in Oz and usually watch IFollow! Hopefully get some clarity soon!

The days of Saturday 3pm KOs have been dead for sometime, many fans have whilst not entirely happy have become resigned to the fact .. this is just another step down the slippery slope
For home games the biggest impact might be felt worst by those with match going children , or indeed those who have kids but for whatever reason the kids don’t go … However , the biggest pain / impact will likely be felt by those who travel away regularly with early starts , traffic jams and late returns a norm .. some will find themselves having to beg steal & borrow even more favours than normal from non/ understanding bosses/ workmates.
many will be hoping our decent games ( home or away ) will directly clash with better fixtures for other clubs

Think the Sentinel said at least 23 of our games won't be on Saturday afternoons. I really dislike this to be honest, but money talks I guess. ![:-S](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/kdD1n42dnzYd3v59eUB_.gif)

Yup, another thing money is doing to ruin football. But the armchair experts will be pleased they can get to see more games from all over the world from their man caves.

It’ll be interesting to see if there’s any positive or negative outcomes for the club/supporters in respect of the use of Ricardo’s or the fan zone

I do hate Birmingham, and it is poor form from Wrexham who are pretending to build this Hollywood journey on the back of their fan base that this openly abuses.

is that a first , to matches out same time and fixture release ? Usually only first weekend matches wasn't it part of the agreement with so many fixture changes for tv, they would be announced for the first half of the season as a compromise? I am sure I read it somewhere but may be mistaken. I believe this may be more accurate Television selections for all matches to be played before the end of September will be confirmed by July 1, within seven days of the fixtures being announced. Selection of all other matches scheduled to be played before the FA Cup third round, in January 2024, will be confirmed before the start of the season. Selection of all matches to be played between the FA Cup third round and the first weekend of March will be confirmed by November 1. Selection of all matches scheduled after the first weekend of March will be made on a four-week rolling basis starting from February 1.

Hope I’ve got this right. Someone asked earlier about the “notice periods” for televised games. This is from SKY. Apologies if you’ve got to open up to view ![](//storage.proboards.com/800541/thumbnailer/eYBxxiYYUYzaGHOxBLMK.png)

Sky TV are showing football, ifollow showed Stoke games, Sky forgets that being a fan is following your team

Again money talks be interesting to know if Sky subscriptions go up or dodgy stick sales increase. I think this tv deal will have a definite effect on season ticket sales next season, just can’t see folk putting up with it. Who wants to see half empty grounds?

All championship games that weren't broadcast live on Sky for all clubs were/are on ifollow not just Stoke. I'm expecting to still be able to watch live any league games I don't attend maybe even league cup as well this season but not really sure about that. Have you got some idea that ifollow will cease?

I'm struggling to find out myself. I cannot make games for health reasons and Radio Joke is useless, there are free streams but unreliable. I have a VPN which indicates whatever country I want to be in. Ifollow should work in many countries, I would pick Canada or Australia. I don't mind paying the price that the locals there and should have the skill to be believed that I'm in that country. So far so good, try finding out how from the Stoke City site! It is also noticeable that all the regular " providers" have gone. Will carry on trying and if I find out let you know or happily listen to other suggestion.

Yeah the VPN is very much trial and error on the day you’re just trying to find a server that’s not overloaded. I’m able to watch on ifollow or sky but think the sky coverage is far better so don’t mind more games on sky. I don’t really have a schedule so the day and time is pretty irrelevant to me. I keep hearing people moaning but I think it’s great to be able to watch all the games regardless where I am. It hasn’t stopped me buying a ST I go to all the home games when I’m in the UK but football doesn’t dictate my life, it’s a leisure activity not an obsession. Seems to me hardcore ultra type traditionalist fans just want everything to suit themselves but in reality they’re nothing like a majority.

That's not correct, they've taken over Wrexham because of the potential mass unrivalled catchment area. They're the only professional football club in North and Mid Wales. Doesn't take long to get from one side of the coast to the other. I'd estimate they've got a population of nearly a 1,000,000 people to target. They have big big potential.

Lots of Liverpool fans in North Wales far easier to get to than Wrexham from there.
