I really struggle to enjoy SKY coverage these days. I understand Hemmings thinks fans should be seen and not heard but surely they must understand they are killing the product. In general RL fans enjoy a pint or three and these days it is hard to mix that with work on a Tuesday or Friday. The big hit could be in season ticket renewals.

Is this actually true? Is there a link to a press release confirming this?

Strange how this is apparently starting when BT Sport gets up and running...

Sky need to let Carney and co do the presenting and Hemmings and Stevo do the commentary. Why they need to all do everything is beyond me.

Don't know.
Probably when Sky announce it themselves.

Thursday or Sunday doesn't bother me, better than Monday for me personally.

I do however not like chopping and changing at their whim to accommodate wendyball.
