The reason for Saturday 7.45pm kickoff.

[Lurcher]

Absolutely f*cking ridiculous.

Sky Sports obligation meant Boro-Rotherham was Saturday evening kick-off

The Championship clash had an unusual Saturday evening kick-off time

I agree with the South Stand Chant, because Sky are killing our game!
Even the Rotherham fans couldnt get back home on the train or National Express.

Aw well, a decent point away from home then. That explains our lack of attacking intent

 

[S7DiscoDown]

So it's not a regular thing? Thought it was weird.

Couldn’t Sky have just given Rotherham the money and a little extra for the oversight?

"When then looking at the schedule, it was realised that they would be unable to schedule Rotherham in for live broadcast at their New York Stadium home and provisions had to be made to instead show the Boro game at the Riverside, which from a broadcasting point of view, was therefore viewed as a Rotherham home fixture."

WTF. Slavery is freedom. War is peace.
