Saturday at 3pm

[ravaro]

Our last Sat 3pm home game was against Portsmouth on 30th August.

The next one (subject to change) is against Hull City on 10th January.

This is despite the fact that we are not in Europe.

Is it any wonder that attendances are down?

i think most were moved in anticipation of us qualifying for the group stages, nevertheless, it is still an effin joke

Sign of the times, price of the money them Sky buggers invest.

Because were one of the teams that sky want to put on now-a-days. Under Walter, we were on five times a season if that.

Agree'd id rather play on a saturday at 3, but it's a sign of the times. We have two monday night games coming up later in the season aswell.

The reason I raised this was because I was considering buying half season tickets for myself and 12 year old son.

However, with a 180 mile round-trip and the fact that he plays on a Sunday I will be sadly watching more of Everton in the pub than at Goodison this season.

tis a shame

We were talking about this the other week on the way to a game, it's a huge shame but if we want our share of the money the television rights bring in it's something we've got to put up with. It's really depressing how small the number of Saturday 3pm kick offs we'll have this season is though

It's crap for those who have to travel to the match, but any cash comming in is good. I can't travel up very often because of work so I'm just grateful for anytime I can watch us on the TV. I think that the premier should think more about travelling fans before agreeing to early starts next time they renegotiate TV contracts.

I read somewhere that the lunchtime kick-offs go out at prime time in the far east.

I agree,there was no need to put successive home games on live against opposition as Fulham and Boro,they should spread them out a bit when selecting live games. I will be there on sunday anyhow-my first of the season.

I agree that with the investment Sky have put into English football that something should give but not at the expense of the very supporters that make English football what it is . Saturday 3.00 kick off"s should be brought atleast three quarter of PL games .
