    rearranged fixures

    I went on the WBA website a short while ago to see that Chelsea v WBA has been moved from a Sat 3pm to Monday 8pm. I don't go to many away matches so it doesn't really affect me but will surely cheese off the loyal away following.
    Following that I looked at the scores today for the Premier league and was pretty shocked to see that there is a match tonight at 7:45pm between Leicester City and Manchester United. I'm assuming that this is a first, i.e. a match at this time on a Saturday night. Armchair viewers lapping it up i'm sure.

    I think that the rescheduling by TV is now getting out of hand. Some games don't finish till after the last train leaves. Fans are being treated disgracefully so as to accommodate the 'arm chair' viewers.

    I think it's great , ok it's a bit spiteful by me but I'm not going to any away games in fact I don't even know if we have a game at this time ? My only grip tonight is got a match on live & the darts on now same time , better than that x factor & that jungle S H I T .

    It's been announced that there will be regular televised Prem. matches at 7.45 on a Saturday from next season.
    It won't affect us so much though, the way we are going.

    Unfortunately TV now own football, and it will only get worse.
    Earlier on in the year there was an uproar about a Liverpool match, TV wanted on XMAS eve and a late KO.
    It can and will get beyond a joke.

    Comments such as this are one of a host of reasons why the game is going to the dogs for supporters actually attending games. That's about as polite as I can muster, be it at this moment in time or at any point in the future. If people can't attend for any host of reasons then that's part of life, but I've absolutely no time for the I'm alright Jack so fk the mug punters approach. I hope your TV blows up and you lose internet connection. Merry Christmas.
