No doubt Fox control the kick off times to fit in with their programming and as Gaz states also this happens around the world but I still think FFA have some influence in the fixtures. Like I've said above, FFA want to maximise the next TV deal and to do that they want ratings as high as possible.....hence the so-called "big city" teams playing the overwhelming majority of prime time games on Friday and Saturday night both last season and now this season.
Once the deal is finalised, clubs like us and the Mariners have to start speaking up and making some noise and demanding a fairer schedule.
Especially if we can improve on the field and improve on 8th I would say we have every farken right to demand more then 2 + (1 in Coffs) evening home matches.
