Just found out the following so will look forward to seeing the mid-week games via the red button....
There are eight rounds of midweek Sky Bet Championship matches this season and Sky Sports Football will broadcast matches live on Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
And as part of a brand new service, Sky Sports viewers will be able to press the red button and watch live coverage of ANY of the matches being played.
That means you'll be able to watch YOUR team live when they play in midweek, no matter which Sky Bet Championship club you support.
Subscribers will also be able to access the live matches via the Sky Sports app - and Soccer Special will also show the best moments from all of the games live on Sky Sports News.

I use SkyGo Krak and if you are a Sky Sports subscriber I think you'll find you can get the matches but since I'm not a Sports subscriber I won't be able to see the games unfortunately, though I may reconsider if all of the games are available. That said, games under Parky are so boring I probably wouldn't waste my money just like I'm not by staying away from the home matches.

Took you long enough, but I knew you wouldn't let us down.
Come on whites, better start than last season and you've still got it in for Parky. You obviously didn't see the game 'cos you don't have "the buzz". We aren't playing bad football with the cheapos that we've acquired.
I'm as excited as an excited BWFC fan can be. (Hugh Laurie)
Two away wins a clean sheet and no defeats in the league. What does a guy have to do to earn your praise? My feeling is that you're like a dog with a bone and you won't/can't let go.
Why not get to the Sheff Utd game (I wished I could) and see what's new and exciting.
Failing that, go and have a few beers with Chip, he knows how to get a buzz on. ;-)

C'mon Whites. Life's much more enjoyable when you're positive and optimistic. I quote from a recent BN comment of yours. "I want Wanderers to win every game but I'd just like to see us doing it convincingly rather than always feeling that we've stolen it or been lucky". There was nothing stolen or lucky about those first two wins. Sure, there'll be disappointments in future but that's the football supporters lot.
If you can't face going in person you can always treat yourself to a Sky Sports sub, hide behind the sofa and pop up to watch the replays every time we score.

Keep posting on here whites, we need an opposing view. I see you got a lot of aggro from the folks on the BN and are not posting any more.
Take the Sheff Utd game in on Saturday, you'll feel at home with all those Yorkies, even if we lose.

Non 3pm ko games are also available for £10 a game with ifollow on the BWFC official website. I get sky free via various apk's and Kodi on my Amazon firestick. Anyone know how to simulate the red button?

Krak, the reason I'm not going to games is predominantly because I don't want to put another penny in Kens pocket as it's Ken who I blame for retaining Parky. I've given Parky huge credit for steadying the ship and for getting us promoted but I still maintain that he made very heavy weather of it in a really poor division 1. Similarly last year, his team selections and systems towards the close were ridiculous in my opinion. Games at Hillsborough and Reading and home against Brum should have been certain 3 pointers yet we ended up getting little from them, in fact lucky not to lose them all. Barnsley last away match was a joke. We pulled the game back were well on top and he decides to go defensive 3 minutes from time and we concede a goal. However you look at it we were fortunate results went for us on the last day and even in our win against Forest. Napoleon always said he wanted lucky generals and I think we have one in Parkinson but luck can only take you so far. I just can't see that Parkinson has suddenly turned positive, I think it's just the early results that have in a way kidded people. Listening and reading the matches nothing really seems to have changed in the system so why would I believe it has? Make no mistake I want it to and I would love nothing better than for us to keep winning, I am a Wanderers fan at the end of the day, but I just don't see that it has and I'm pessimistic for our two games this week. Since I can't be positive and I'm peeing people off with my perceived negative posts I've decided that it will be best for me not to make further comments. As I'm not attending games just now they're probably right so having given up on the BN site today I'm also quitting this forum until I feel it's right for me to air my views so I don't pee off peeps here too.

My Sheffield mates are begging me to go with them as I normally do Wots but I think that would be wrong. Of course their last view of Wanderers was our win at Bramhall Lane when I accept we were terrific but as I pointed out to them, only because Parky was forced to change. Did he learn from it? Of course not so I'm sorry but I will continue my absence until things tangibly change.

Don't understand this sky deal for free. Does that mean we get more money? Will all the bars be able to show all the games? Will it have an effect on attendances? Kicking off at 8 already must put a lot of families off. I know it's only 15 mins later but by the time you get home it's a fairly late end to the day.
I suppose you could stay til the end to beat the traffic!

When it gets to the end of season OooM and we need 3 valuable points to stay up, those 8 o’clock starts will give us the final 15 minutes to push on once we know all the other final scores😬😬😬😬

I applaud you for your stance W63 and you should not be hung out to dry by all and sundry on the BN just for having your views on Parky. I completely agree with what your saying as I said as much after almost every game last season. The horrendous start we had was unforgettable, unforgivable and we somehow performed the ultimate end of season miracle which will live on in the memory. I will not get carried away with our start this season as the first defeat could put us right back to where the bookies believe we should be. That said, I am trying to be as positive as I can be and I’m hoping we manage a mid table finish. We neither got relegated from the Prem, nor got promoted from League 1 and with the struggles we suffered we should be in the best possible position to ensure the same fate does not strike again and this is the only reason I’m backing PP as he should be a much better manager this time around. There’s no doubting we rode our luck v WBA Bristol AND Reading, has WBA taken the QPR approach we could have been canon fodder, had Bristol not had a mad few minutes they would have taken the points, granted Reading were sh*t but it was only a slender 1-0. I’m convinced you really don’t care what anyone thinks W63 and fair play to you pal Onwards and upwards I say and let’s see where fate takes us COYWM

I would like to add my two pence worth on a few things. First being a Bolton fan is a lot like being an Elvis Presley fan which I am never mind the quality of his films towards the end just enjoy the man, watching Bolton never mind the quality just take the end result. On the sky debate it's great for Tuesday night away games at Middlesbrough for me and to be honest it's great for all midweek games for me as I work shifts but you can't beat being at the game. Ps w63 as far as I'm aware every one is entitled to their own opinion COYWM.

In terms of W63 and the BN website. A lot of those people seem to be trolls. I doubt many of them attend games they just seem to want to argue without knowing anything on the subject.
I think a lot of them feel vindicated by our survival and feel they can now say what they want with no respect and often insulting views for a guy who obviously has supported us and had clearly had enough.
I think it's funny that they call us negative but if you go to a Madrid game and they're not playing well they boo and wave white flags to show how embarrassed they are. They've just won 3 champions leagues on the trot. Believe me we don't own the patent for disappointment in our club.
