Would rather have Barrow fans watching the games at Holker Street and not at home this deal will seriously effect us the next 4 seasons.

Absolutely spot on. It’s a dam awful deal. EFL 2 clubs and supporters have been well and truly shafted by sky

Totally agree, the crowd is 12th man at home and the fantastic away support . I’ve spoke to several usually go away to Carlisle and have said not going to bother as it’s on tv

I dislike the Sky deal but I don't understand this argument. The vast majority of Saturday games will still not be televised and we were always able to watch midweek and international break games on iFollow so what difference?
Don't let the old man in.

The convenience of them being on Sky for no extra cost to a monthly subscription will do more to encourage folk to stop at home rather than attend in person. We currently have 4 Saturday games on tv with 3 of them 12:30 ko inconveniencing fans and travel arrangements. For just £75k extra on the previous sky tv deal I fear the drop In attendances this season especially in efl2 that £75k won’t cover it and clubs will be worse off

Does anyone know if it will be possible to record Barrow matches from Sky Sport +?
I intend to go the Crewe game, and would like to record the game to watch later.
Possible or not?
Can’t find anything on the internet on this point.

The Sky Sports+ channel is going on sky 412

If it’s the main game on the channel then yes
If you have to press red button to access it then sadly no
