The club will announce that in due course, probably be a while until they go on sale.

But I think anyone who wants to go will be able to go. Big enough away end at Leeds.

Plus quite a few will decide to give it a miss due to that fact tickets will inevitably be £40-£50 and it's live on Sky on a Sunday afternoon.

Would expect the game against the Jacks will be chosen for Sky as well. The first game of the season against them normally is.

SKY's first 4 games look a good mix of Premier League and Div 1 clubs last season with the odd Championship club .

Great news. Does anyone know how the finances work? Is there a split of home/away, or is it just the home team that benefits?
