Livid. Absolutely livid. Cancelled my two tickets for tomorrows match as trains down here likely to be cancelled - some severe shit weather is forecast here from this afternoon. Got refund as there are no more games on a 3pm on Saturday. Thanks a bunch Sky, thanks a whole bunch. I've now got to try and do one of the late evening games on a Saturday or take time off from week if i want to see another game before August. Thanks Sky.

I'm not convinced. It is quite possible that they will be out of contention for 2nd by the time that we face them. They're 6 points adrift as we speak. If that remains the same, the only way they'll have a mathematical chance is if their GD is superior. Further slips will see them out of it by the time the penultimate Saturday comes around.

Yeah, it's a bit close to Nottingham and Burton at the moment. If they stick it in somewhere like Cornwall they would have a decent catchment area with no major rival.

Good point, but sky will move the fixture before Derby's contention is resolved. Either way, Villa will likely be in contention at that point, and could be a game that see's us promoted/heaps pressure on Cardiff/keeps us in the race. Hopefully the former. Obviously.

Im in a similar situation,its so annoying. Think I have managed to change things around to do Wolves instead of QPR but am fed up with Sky messing with our games.

Fuxked-off over the Leeds change. Had long earmarked it as an overnight stay in Brum on the Sat and then see Arcade Fire at the NEC on the Sun.

Hope the Sky factor doesn't affect the Cardiff crowd too much. We need a massive crowd and rocking ground for that one.

It's midweek anyway. That's the sort of game that sells itself so I think we'll get 40k for that.

Doubt Cardiff will bring many.

Pretty sure they sold out last season when they were in the bottom 3. If it's a top 2 shout out I can't see how they wouldn't bring 2.5k.

Not sure they'll sell out with it being a Tuesday. Was it a weekend match last year? I have no recollection of the game.

ads cardiff will bring loads never under estimate our support in south wales in big games

we will fill out our allocation no probs for this one even mid week south wales is looking forward to this one . if a weekend fixture we would ask for more tickets such is the interest in this game down here  . the feel good factor and the area is buzzing right now

looking forward to a few pints in  erdington again !

it was a Saturday game. We won 3-1 and there was a bit of trouble outside the away end after the game.

Didn't see any trouble outside but there was plenty on the pitch. They targeted Jack and eventually one of their players was sent off for doing a hatchet job on him. If memory serves me correctly, it was the game where Kodjia gave the ball to Gestede for the late penalty.

Fingers crossed. I'll be on my hollibobs. I'm sure there's nothing my wife wants more than to spend her evening in a Spanish pub watching the Villa!!
