Good to see the covered corner in the Osmond going to Town supporters rather than away support.

That's great news - really pleased the club are prioritising home fans in this way. It would be easy just to flog all the Osmond to Forest fans with probably a lower stewarding and policing cost.

I assume it's an automated thing. So they just set the date it opens up (a bit like wages I guess)

From a STH point of view it doesn’t really matter what time you order them so long as it’s in the specified window.

I’m not entirely convinced putting town in the corner with a full allocation for forest…

Quoted from GollyGTFC


I mean they’ve picked Tranmere Rovers (v Newcastle) as one of their live games in the 2nd Round. And they had Bradford City as one of their 1st Round live games. And last season they had Barrow live in the 2nd Rpund and both Salford & Leyton Orient live in the 1st Round. And the season before that they showed Leyton Orient, Harrogate, Salford, Barrow & Walsall live. But yeah, Sky Sports hate League 2 and never pick any of the clubs for live EFL Cup games….


Do you ever post anything on here which isn't spectacularly pedantic? You've just cherry picked fixtures there, it's very clear from the [url=https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11688/11558301/sky-sports-extends-efl-contract-until-2024-broadcasting-138-live-games-per-season]terms of the EFL's TV deal that Sky Sports have absolutely no interest in league two[/url]:

"Sky Sports has agreed the renewal of its contract with the EFL to broadcast 138 live league games per season until 2024... At least 20 EFL games broadcast per season will be chosen from Sky Bet League One and League Two matches."

138 games a season, yet only 20 of them involve either League One or League Two, and of those paltry 20 matches a season Sky Sports heavily prefer broadcasting League One over League Two. So if we're lucky and Sky pick evenly between League One and Two we get a maximum of 10 televised League Two matches a season - approximately one every four weeks. [url=https://www.bt.com/sport/football/national-league/bt-sport-to-remain-home-of-national-league-2024-new-deal]Compare that to BT who show a live National League match every week of the season[/url].

So yes, you contrarian melt, Sky Sports demonstrably do hate League Two and avoid showing teams from the lower end of the football league wherever they possibly can.

Anyone else try and buy their Forest ticket this evening and find their seat greyed out? I waited until midnight thinking it might get released at the end of the ST holder-only period but nope. Didn't see any seats get released in fact. Will be a bit miffed if someone has been able to purchase it

Only usual non STH Main Stand seats available on my 1878 login - Unless every single STH has bought a Forest ticket ( apart from you) I'd say STH seat have not been released to 1878 members.
