It's been said many times before but this really pisses me off. The odd game OK but a whole months worth of Saturdays? As we all know, the fans are last to be considered.

Three home games on a Sunday in the space  of 22 days  seems a bit over the top - lets hope our home form is sorted by then .

Totally agree think its time the club considered some sort of compensation for season ticket holders

More than slightly unchuffed with this.  I'm running half marathons on the 2nd and 15th March.

It's not just us. As ever, don't complain if you have Sky.

For the first time in the history of Sky Sports broadcasting matches live they've actually done me a favour! I was due to miss the Norwich home game on March 1st to attend a wedding but I'll now be able to do both.
Is it asking too much for the Easter Saturday home game to be moved to Monday night? I've got a stag weekend in Amsterdam to go on on Good Friday, returning Easter Monday.

I don't and won't on principle.

Have said before today feel for the person whose job it will be to convince us to renew in view of the lack of entertainment over the last few years. Think this has made the job slightly harder

Its a disgrace moving them, especially this close to the games.

I'm sure thousands have fans must have already got tickets for the Norwich game with it only being just over a month away. They now face the hassle of getting a refund if they can't make it.

Neutrals across the land will be licking their lips at the prospect of Villa hosting Norwich and Stoke.

I didn't think they were allowed to move games once tickets had been sold anyway.
