@knoxville2626: Good thing I didn’t book a non refundable return to Birmingham this morning 🙃

@OTBCjayden: so you’re refunding fans who now can’t make it? or you’ll just go silent like jail

@redarmy32: Couldn’t care less just like yourselves and sky when it comes to us fans 😡

@MattyBarrett_10: Once again! F Sky Sports 🖕🏽

@Jenkko280: Sky insist on getting their Grimeu little fingers on everything good I swear

@svenncfc: Dear @SkyFootball kindly fuck off moving fixtures after they go on sale you absolute fucking cock wombles. Yours sincerely The football fans of every fucking club!!!

@TheWhittards: Football fans need legal protections to cancel or amend bookings of travel and accommodation fee free if they’re impacted like this. Going to be many fans who can’t now make it as they won’t be able to get the time off work.

@charlieeeemac: Already booked travel in anticipation of the fixture being on the Saturday. Football fans are treated appallingly as usual

@HarryLe53996090: @SkySports I hope you go bust

@shane_robshaw: This needs to stop, absolute joke from sky to change the fixture this late. Travelling fans getting shafted as per. Should be a minimum of 2 months notice for any fixture change

@yummo37: Absolute bollocks for the fans that have already booked hotels!

@Englander1512: Put tickets on sale then move the kick off. Fans fucked about again.

@RyanM11M: Lovely, will be requesting a refund for the already purchased tickets then… #ncfc

@ltfc_bible: Look at us! We’re money grabbing so’n’so’s with still no regard for fans

@bmonty_: You’ve gotta be taking the piss. How about you put your fans first instead of Sky. What a shambles.

@fullke65: Already bought my train tickets. This is what it would be like in the premiership if we got there

@JIMOFMFC: Absolutely awful @MillwallFC do you not consider everyone who has booked hotels and trains etc? Treat us with contempt while begging for fans to purchase season tickets?

@Matthews7053: Another game already on sale moved for TV @EFL @SkySports bunch of wankers


Meanwhile, the EFL confirms its stance on a potential scrapping of the 3pm television blackout rule.

Clubs in the English Football League are to have their say about potentially scrapping the 3pm television blackout rule this summer.

The rule, which was brought into force back in the 1960s, bans live football from being shown on TV between 2.45pm and 5.15pm on a Saturday. However with people’s viewing habits changing and the pandemic seeing blackout rules temporarily axed, it raises talk of Saturday 3pm games being made available to broadcast.

However, contrary to various reports, the EFL aren’t said to be actively promoting this outcome but do insist that member clubs who want change can talk about it during this summer’s AGM which takes place in June.

When football returned after the Covid break in June 2020, all EFL games were broadcast over the iFollow streaming service with fans unable to attend matches. This included those taking place at 3pm on Saturdays.
