It's not on tv.

A nation rejoices.

It's not on tv.

Correct.

Sterk City News sez:

The Premier League have also confirmed that the kick-off time of City's visit to Aston Villa has been moved to 5.30pm on Easter Monday.

This is due to the fact that the Potters will be kicking off their Staffordshire derby against Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Britannia Stadium exactly 48 hours earlier after it was selected for live broadcast by ESPN.

Fuck me in both ears.

HOOF!!!!

It will be like watching tennis. Maybe we can grunt in unison a la sharipova

The tv bosses can't be cruel enough to inflict this game on the nation can they. The blokes will be dragging their wives down the shops to avoid having to watch it.

Well, after the last 'epic' televised contest on Boxing Day I suppose they felt they had no choice.
