Title: Cardiff and Newcastle Away both on the tellybox
Post by: Clampy on December 10, 2013, 10:09:40 AM
The Cardiff game is still on the same night, Tuesday 11th February and live on BT Vision.

The Newcastle game is now on Sky at 5.30pm on Saturday 22nd February but could get moved to the day after at 1.30pm subject to Sky's Champions League scheduling.

I wished they would make their minds up and stick to it rather than all this could be moved due to champions league crap .

Have bt vision showed a game yet at villa park?

I don't understand what impact the CL has on it. Is one of the CL teams currently in the 1.30 Sunday slot?

It's all a massive pain in the arse.  Let's get back to Canon League Division One and Elton Welsby hosting the highlights on a Sunday afternoon.

Did you know that Elton Welsby's real first name is Roger?

doesn't bother me too much, we've lost all our Sky matches at VP so far this season, the downside of being live is letting the nation watch when we lose and forming their negative opinions about us. I honestly wonder what our overall live tv record is? Seeing as in recent years  we're mostly always on as the opposition to the top four teams so it cant be that good.Dynamite in the late 80s early 90s but piss poor in recent years.

I am coming over for WHU home and Cardiff away. I have a mad dash back to Brum on Tuesday night and an early flight back to Chicago on Wednesday morning, so I hope they don't screw with this fixture any more.

Probably 95% of all fixtures prior to this were also 3pm, such was the way it was.

That's it. At the moment CP v Manu is scheduled for Sunday 23/2 1.30 slot however if manu are scheduled to play a CL game on Tuesday than CP v Manu will be moved back to Saturday. CL round of 16 first legs are scheduled for 25/26 February.

Didn't we play them on the opening day or early on in the season on a Saturday - i remember we won 1-0 , I think Joachim scored .

Also remember drawing 1-1 there on a Saturday. 3 pm when Sorensen saved a shearer pen.

Think the 3-0 win was 3pm too when bowyer and dyer were fighting.

No, Lord Lucan was playing tennis with Michael Boulding at the time.

Newcastle now the Sunday 1:30pm kick off.

Quote
Villa's televised match with Newcastle has switched.

Man Utd's away match at Olympiakos in the Champions League will be played on Tuesday February 25.

This has the effect of switching the Crystal Palace v Man Utd match to the live Saturday evening kick-off for Sky Sports - Saturday February 22, kick-off 5.30pm.

That also has the knock-on of moving our match with Newcastle to the Sunday afternoon game for Sky Sports - Sunday February 23, kick-off 1.30pm.

Maybe, just maybe, there will be a time in the future when we play them on a Saturday. No wonder we always take a shit following up there.

BT have only screened Villa at Norwich, I think.
