    Christ they'll be games on everyday

    Didn't someone post on here a month or so ago to say championship games would be streamed every week this coming season similarly to how premier league games are? Anyone got more info on that?

      seems a bit bizarre... that's roughly 5 of the 12 games every weekend - viewing figures for championship games are relatively low, so i guess thursday night and sunday lunchtime matches to fit around prem games will become a much too common thing.

      for us, it'll be a total disaster, as it means that we'll need to win more-or-less all our non-sky games just to stay up.

          not sure it's the same thing, but the club sells live video streams of non-televised games to fans outside the uk.

          from https://www.eticketing.co.uk/qpr/mem...ndmembership=0
          In addition, for the first time ever R’s supporters who live outside of the domestic market* will be able to purchase a Digital membership, which once signed in with a QPR+ Pass on qpr.co.uk, gives them access to watch a multi-camera production HD live stream of QPR’s Sky Bet Championship fixtures that have not been selected for broadcast by Sky Sports or an overseas broadcaster.**

          *Domestic market is defined as UK, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, Channel Islands and Isle of Man, with International being all other countries.

          **As an example of how many fixtures this could include, during the 2016/17 season QPR were shown live by Sky Sports or an overseas broadcaster on a total of 13 occasions meaning that 33 matches would have been eligible to live stream via a QPR+ Pass.

                More like 228/46 = 5 games a week

                Still a load of b*llox whatever way you look at it (IMO)
