1295galaxy   20 #2 Posted August 3, 2018 We seem to pay over the top to watch games at Hillsborough,but the Club now as refused to pay the fee to let The Owls fans listen to the away games on Radio Sheffield,Everything seems to be going wrong at the Club since Mr Chansiri as stepped in,we needed somone who was going to over take The Owls who knew what he had to do to run a football club,but even though he as invested loads of money into the club,Mr Chansiri seems to have no idea what to do to run the club right Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

scargill   10 #8 Posted August 3, 2018 Isn't it the other way around? RS are wanting a 10% reduction in what they pay the club.  Across the country it appears that Wednesday are the only team to refuse to take the 10% reduction in fees paid to broadcast live commentary.  Another shot in the foot for Wednesday!  Just a thought is the 10% cut significant in terms of club income and if so does it affect FFP?

NERVY-OWL Â Â 195 #9 Posted August 3, 2018 Isn't it the other way around? RS are wanting a 10% reduction in what they pay the club. Â Thats what I thought, shooting themselves in the foot there. Not sure how much it actually is we'd of got from it but I'll miss not hearing commentary when I can listen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Albert smith   11 #10 Posted August 3, 2018 Lets hope that Barnsley are not away at the same time as Sheffield United as thats them done for also, as well as Rotherham and Doni. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

iansheff   88 #12 Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) Sorry but there is no way I would pay £4.49 pm just to listen to commentaries. Also what happens when they are away at local teams, how can they stop RS from broadcasting the matches against Utd and Rotherham.  Statement from the club website.  https://www.swfc.co.uk/news/2018/august/sheffield-wednesday-matchday-commentary/ Edited August 3, 2018 by iansheff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
