Premier League trying to get Leicester vs Utd moved to Xmas Eve as well. Cunts. Things that work in our favour is that Leicester Tigers play at home on 24th Dec as well and due to policing numbers we don't usually play at home on the same day as them. Apparently the 'Safety Advisory Group' have the final say on it and to be honest I hope they stick 2 fingers up to the Premier League.
Honey Honey Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Would it mean scrapping the boxing day game? Surely they're not allowed to bunch fixtures closer together for no reason?

Subscriber Dan+ Posted October 10, 2017 Subscriber Posted October 10, 2017 They'll manage to move ours. Guarantee it. Thought the whole thing fell brilliantly for me personally so they're bound to fuck it all up. Shouldn't even be considered. Just fuck that weekend off and let them have a couple extra over the season if they have to. We'll cave in though no doubt.

As well Tigers' game is on BT Sport, so that may work in our favour. They're trying to swap them apparently. Imagine if they tried to get both playing at home on Christmas eve. It would be only second to the trophy parade in how manic it would be. Traffic in Leicester's bad enough with any one of the three, let alone all.
Administrator Stan Posted October 10, 2017 Author Administrator Posted October 10, 2017 It's disgraceful to be honest. Just leave it alone to have no fixtures played Xmas Eve as well as Xmas day (wouldn't surprise me if in future they tried this too). Boxing day is hard enough with reduced travel services.
Administrator Stan Posted October 10, 2017 Author Administrator Posted October 10, 2017 Labour MP Tom Watson has sent a letter to Richard Scudamore asking to reconsider moving the games to Xmas Eve https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41564944 Premier League agree no game will kick off at 4pm or later on that day. Which says to me they've already decided to move games but will have them played at an earlier time
Smiley Culture Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 Brighton v Everton not on UK TV but moved to an early kick-off so it can be shown in India. The Rajasthan Toffees will be over the moon.

You cry and randomly mention me. I reply and then you cry again. This is great fun. You'll probably start slitting your wrists if the 3pm media blackout was ever scrapped you bitter, soft, pathetic clown.
The Artful Dodger Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Your disregard for match going fans has only been further evidenced in this thread. You do yourself no favours.
SirBalon Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 This does alter many things for those that do go to matches though... It's sad to see because there are still many match going fans that are pushed to the limits aside from this and it does leave them as meaningless entities more and more. But fans' support for their clubs somehow always seems to rise above this which is still good to see.

Ours apparently will NOT be that day, thank fuck.

Rafa Beneathus Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Saturday 16th December. Arsenal v Newcastle. Our first 3PM Saturday game of the season at the ninth time of asking. Fuck sky.
Subscriber Dan+ Posted October 20, 2017 Subscriber Posted October 20, 2017 I can tolerate ours. I'm a bit annoyed about the Palace game as it's the Christmas do the night before which always ends up being a big one, literally the one kick off time I didn't want. Man Utd isn't ideal, shit for their fans to be honest, but give me that over Christmas Eve. Newcastle away half 5 is great.

The Artful Dodger Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Everton v Newcastle has now been moved from a 3pm Saturday kick off to a Monday night 8pm kick off. This has been moved AFTER tickets went on sale and many Newcastle fans will already have arranged travel and possibly accommodation. Fucking ridiculous.
Honey Honey Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 They're also making us wait til May to play Spurs so they can put it on tv. It was originally meant to be played last weekend but spurs had an fa cup game. They're out of europe so there is a lot of midweek availability but sky want it and it cant clash with CL fixtures.
