It would have been better if they were spread out a bit but it is nice to see they have chosen some different fixtures rather than Fulham, Brentford and Reading which seem to be ones they choose most seasons.

It has to have an impact at the turnstiles though.... (but what do Sky care)!

I agree that unless a team is on a succesful run then there is an impact on numbers going through the turnstiles. I suppose Sky would argue that last season they compensated home teams by 100,000 per game - unless it’s played on Sunday (£120,000) or Thursday (£140,000) - while away teams collect a fixed fee of £10,000 and this makes up for the lost numbers. Personally I would prefer to go to the game because there is nothing like a night game down at LR.
