Fans furious as Sky Sports announce Championship side picked for 31ST TIME this season with latest TV selections
LEEDS will have their 31st game of the season televised as Sky Sports announces their latest live TV selections for Championship games.
And rival fans are furious after finding out the Whites are set to get more airtime again.
Leeds United have had a tremendous season in the second division after overtaking frontrunners Leicester City in their 2-1 win against Millwall.
And supporters will be even more delighted to see their team on the big screen once again.
Due to the 3pm blackout on Saturday – when all Championship games are scheduled to play – TV broadcasters dictate which games they want to televise and therefore move the time or day of the game.
And in Leeds’ case, this has now happened 31 times this season after Sky Sports have announced they will broadcast their clash against Middlesbrough.
The match was originally scheduled on Saturday 20 April but has now been moved to Monday 22 April at 8pm.
For the other teams in the Championships, their fans were fuming to hear the news.
As one said: “Sky Sports Leeds United.”
A second added: “31 games must be a record surely?”

Then a third fan said: “This is beyond a joke now!”
Leeds will have to win the remainder of their games this season if they want to win the league.
Leicester who were leading the way this term after only losing four of their games by the middle of February.
But after only winning one game in their last five Leeds have managed to close the gap to the Foxes.
While both sides will certainly be promoted back to the Premier League next season the battle for the league title is still ongoing.
