Large scale fan boycotts of a certain time slot (eg Monday night 8pm) would send a strong message to Sky, they wouldn't want an empty stadium every Monday and they definitely wouldn't want to explain that the stadium was empty because of them. It'd need agreement from fans of every club for it to have maximum effect though.

Bah humbug - to turn off the snow, visit your preferences and select a style that isn't Christmas.
i think a start could be a lobby to ban the monday night fixture, let sky have their analysis and guest, but the match is aways a side show to the chat and not only is it inconvenient but its killing the weekend tradition
the fixtures are getting out of hand. i know a good few need to be moved to sunday cos of European fixtures but how about just those teams play sunday on TV, everyone else plays saturday, that would be a start

Newcastle seem to get their MPs talking about them loads in parliament. That’s probably the route. they should be able to exert some form of power through the regulator surely under the aim of safeguarding the heritage of English football - ie, putting the fans first.
It's obviously bypassed the powers that be, that it's also the final of Strictly Come Dancing this Saturday!

Broadcasters need content, if all of the content plays at the same time, they have less content to provide...
Mind you, I don't like it, but only government regulation would change it and I doubt very much they would.

Going through our home fixtures and by my reckoning we only have 4 games left to be played on a Saturday. 3 of them are Chelsea, RS and City which more than likely will be moved. That just leaves Sunderland, our last home game of the season. Ridiculous.

There's no point IMO - clubs are now totally reliant on TV money.
The ONLY way to make them listen is to not buy tickets and by doing this it will likely drive them further into the arms of tv.
You could also argue that any of us watching televised football are also part of the problem- cancel your subscriptions !
Even if local fans switch off and/or don't turn up there's too many elsewhere now funding the TV model.
Give non league a go is my advice.
