LEEDS will have their 31st game of the season televised after Sky Sports announced their latest live Championship TV selections.
And rival fans are furious after finding out the Whites are set to get more airtime again.
Leeds have had a tremendous season in the second tier, and overtook long-time frontrunners Leicester with their 2-1 win against Millwall last weekend.
And supporters will be even more delighted to see their team on the big screen once again.
Due to the 3pm blackout on Saturday – when all Championship games are scheduled to play – TV broadcasters dictate which games they want to televise and therefore move the time or day of the game.
And, in Leeds’ case, this has now happened 31 times this season after Sky Sports have announced they will broadcast their clash against Middlesbrough.

The match was originally scheduled on Saturday 20 April but has now been moved to Monday 22 April at 8pm.
Rival fans were fuming to hear the news.
As one said: “Sky Sports Leeds United.”
A second added: “31 games must be a record surely?”

Then a third fan said: “This is beyond a joke now!”
Leeds are in flying form and unbeaten in the Championship in 2024.
Daniel Farke’s side were 17 points behind Leicester on New Year’s day, with the Foxes appearing destined to run away with the title.
Leicester had only lost four games all season by the middle of February.
But, with the Foxes suffering a blip that’s seen them only win one game in their last five, Leeds have incredibly managed to leapfrog them.
The pair are only one point ahead of surprise package Ipswich in third, with six games left of the season.
