New EFL dates announced as Yorkshire football fans get fixture schedule for rest of 2024

The Football League has announced a raft of fixture changes for more televised games.

A new deal with Sky Sports which will see over 1,000 matches televised each year for the next five seasons will also mean fewer Saturday 3pm kick-offs than ever but at least the broadcasters have made good on their promise to give plenty of warning of what changes will be made in the first half of the campaign, announcing new dates all the way up to new Year's Day 2025.

Leeds United and Sheffield United have had nine further Championship games moved for live television coverage, Sheffield Wednesday eight and Hull City and Middlesbrough six each. There are other games moved as a knock-on effect of television dates.
