The club will be absolutely made up it's happening so often I think. I'm sure I read somewhere that the Friedkins had remarked internally that they were concerned with the amount of times we had been picked for TV in recent years.
New stadium was always going to be a draw for broadcasters this season, as was attracting some better players, and then there's the sheer number of teams in Europe meaning we're among the better ones available for Monday nights.
Can't see the club backing any effort to stop this, but it would be good if Sky could limit each team to 1 home Monday night game and/or 1 away Monday night game a season.
