Has somebody really suggested Wakefield as a decent alternative to Leeds?

The only thing Wakefield has over Leeds is a Category A prison.

the brentford one is a disgrace and inconsiderate, we all know the train situation on boxing day. Not every one wants to use official organised coaches.

What train situation? As I understand it, there are no trains on Boxing Day? I was hoping that game would be moved to the 27th. Will have to watch the game with my Bluenose relatives now. Great.

My fear was the Sheffield United game would be moved to the Friday night. Still a pain but 5:30 Saturday is much better than 7:45 Friday.

I think that is precisely it.

Boxing day at half 7 is awful, we had this years ago against Stoke and many boycotted the game IIRC.

Should be rules saying you can't show live games past certain times.

I'm not sure about that in general but it is a bit late for a Boxing Day fixture.

Totally senseless and without any regard for the fact that I will be in Australia and not able to watch matches kicking off at 04.30 and 06.30 :-[

Do all of these TV matches add up to a significant amount of extra income for the club?  We're becoming the ManUre of the Championship!

Surely it's irrelevant as far as trains are concerned as there aren't any anyway?
