It's still the opening of a new stadium. How on earth can you not be outraged?
Because i'm a grown man. I save my outrage for idiots shooting up mosques.

Alright I'll accept outraged is too strong a word.Because i'm a grown man. I save my outrage for idiots shooting up mosques.
You are not abusing the ticketing allocation AND the person is also in your network with a client reference number. It will be fine
I don't follow?
This game was scheduled for TV, so it should be broadcast even when it was moved. Period.
And, aside from that, it's the opening of a new stadium for fuck's sake. A once in a lifetime event that has been discarded in favour of a boring Man City stroll in the park. A Title race happens every season, a side opening a new stadium does not.
It's a despicable decision.
Sky have every choice. I work for a station that holds the PL rights in my country, I know how this works.The city game was already scheduled to be on tv. The pl moved our game because of fa cup clash. Sky didn't have much of a choice. It's not like everyone new for 6 months this was going to be the date of our opening. It's disappointing but they will show the stadium on tv before the city game and talk about it. It will be all over the news. And there are other ways to watch the game.
I suspect something has gone between City and sky re the Cardiff match. I’m pretty sure that was their game this weekend and a date hadn’t been set for it. However if they didn’t play it on the 3rd there’s a chance Liverpool could have gone 5 pts clear with 2 games in hand and made the title race a bit messy. Likely Sky said to city listen can you play Cardiff ASAP so we can keep the title race aligned. Something along those lines has happened.
Which is bullshit prioritising of the absolute highest order of bullshitness. Title challenges are annual events, stadium openings are historic.To sky a club opening a new stadium isn't as important compared to a team fighting for the title.
Yes you're right in that they had to play it on the 3rd to not mess up the schedule too much. It doesn't mean it still had to be on TV. Their game against Everton was a TV pick on League Cup final weekend, that was moved and then not broadcast. Which was also an absolutely ****ish move.I suspect something has gone between City and sky re the Cardiff match. I’m pretty sure that was their game this weekend and a date hadn’t been set for it.

Not for the test events you haven't.??? surely we've already paid if we're Season Ticket holders?

Clueless fucks.
More fool them. Stadium openings are massive deals to a club and its fans. Not showing the first game in a new PL stadium, even when it was the Emirates, is pathetic.as I say they never put Arsenal v Villa

No, it wasn't. We were literally not allowed to show it in Norway because it wasn't broadcast in the UK, and decided it wasn't worth kicking up a fuss about.the Everton v Man C game was broadcast in the UK
