Could be the sunday a lot though Though a lot always use the Thursday/Sunday stuff as reason if they lose the league game on that sunday. Even though its same as Wed/Sat. Just a mental thing we all use really

 

[Verbal Kint]

How it started :

How it ended :

I wonder if the Premier League will fine the Premier League for breaking the rules of the Premier League ?

Surely we warrant a point deduction for breaking the rules

Rather Sunday than monday

Also means our game the weekend before a euro fixture is more likely to stay on a Saturday, and certainly not be moved to Monday

 

[Vaughan]

Don’t think it was “chosen” for that date, it was just a coincidence

Some coincidence that

Some fixtures will be random, many will be chosen

 

[Davideeyore]

This Man City game, we should turn the negative in to a positive.

Bank Holiday, BST, means lighter longer. Plan ahead, fans going should be able to enjoy the day and create a barmy atmosphere.

I personally wouldn't have minded so much if they had it kick off after the Chelsea v Nottm Forest game, say 5:30? Would be more time after the game for people getting home, especially those bringing youngsters with them. Or a couple of post match pints while the crowds die down. We used to have a lot of Bank Holiday football in the pre premier league era and before TV started dictating things and you'd sometimes get decent sized crowds (for that era) turning up so I'm not necessarily against us playing on a Bank Holiday. What I don't understand is the thinking behind an 8pm kick off time especially as there is only one other game (the Chelsea one) being played in the top four divisions on May 4th. Imagine the outcry if there was an 8pm game on a Sunday night, there's probably not a lot of difference between that and playing on a Bank Holiday with public transport etc..?

And give lpool a pen

 

[the golden visionary]

No doubt that was the main consideration

 

[Moomin]

beyond the pale that being moved to yet another monday

any pushback at all from the club?

They want the money so will be all for it.

 

[alan ball]

The club too should see the fans gripe with these changes. They should support their fans fight against the tv bullies and the PL.
WE WERE OUR CLUB’S SOURCE OF REVENUE BEFORE THE TV MONEY. Have some respect.

 

[Vaughan]

the amount of games you play on telly doesnt affect how much you actually get

plus we could have been on saturday morning evening aunday morning or ecening or even daytime on bank hol, another night fame is a joke
