Rather than a load of Monday night games (like last season)....we got a load of midday kick offs (always a bit of a brick time to play.

Except of course versus Arsenal which is moved to 4pm so we can all get tanked up and run those clams out of the park lane one more time.

Who decides this brick?
 
Damn, feel like I'm spamming this thread today, but lots of news popping up:

REMINDER: Season ticket holders have until 2pm to buy their ticket for the @EmiratesFACup quarter-final v Millwall.

Dont understand why they have to wait until Mar 27th to finalise Palace. We both had a free-midweek after the scheduled date, should have arranged it for then

There are CL games on wednesday 15 March. Pretty sure there is still this rule that PL-games are not allowed to take place on CL-nights.
 
Looks like Bournemouth will be the last Saturday game at WHL and Wycombe was the last 3pm kickoff. Unless something miraculous happens with the ManU game.

Praying they dont put it on the Monday night.

Still a chance for Saturday though as they dont make the picks until April 13th IIRC, so United will have played their next round of the EL by then. If they reach the Quarters then definitely wont be Saturday.

Why should it matter if Leciester or Arsenal are playing on the Tuesday, when we are playing Watford.

If one of them has to move their match to the Saturday it should be played at 3pm and not be shown live. Why should 2 clubs who have nothing to do with it, have to move their match?

Its Sky and the FA !! why are you surprised
 
This is beyond ridiculous now. Poor sods trying to plan travel to away matches, must be a bloody nightmare.

They should complete the fixture list and the full year's worth of TV games in July, taking European games into account and throw in a few empty midweek slots here and there to deal with postponed games. Its a disgrace how they keep changing thibgs around, completely disregarding the fans.

And therein lies your problem. You are trying to find/apply a fan's logic (or, in fact, any logic) to these decisions.
You are fighting a losing battle.
