2012 / 2013 fixtures

[UK Redsox]

The Newcastle & Spurs games getting switched might be handy for me, I might make both of those.

Same here, I was definitely going to have to miss Spurs when it was on the Sat but should now be OK

Is this just Sky games? If it doesn't account for ESPN etc (or whoever has the rights) won't there be more changes?

Its still ESPN for 2012/13

I'm delighted with this as I would have missed it if it'd been on the Saturday

Just chuffed the Everton game is on a Saturday.

[Top Cat]

I've just subscribed to Sky Sports for 6 months hoping I would get to see a few away games but as the deal runs out in December looks like I've wasted my money.

Having said that I'm sure the matches at Villa Park will be so exciting that I'll be wanting to watch them again on Football First (unlike last season which is why I cancelled it in the first place).

[darren woolley]

Can't complain about the tv schedule.

[andyh]

Not too bad at all,although I bloody bet spuds at home on boxing day to be moved to a 8pm KO
Mark my words.

[Chipsticks]

Anybody know when the tickets for the first few games go on sale?

All of our Saturday games were on Football First last season, not that I could be bothered to watch them again.

[Chipsticks]

So what sort of attendances are we gonna get next season? I think we'll safely get around 35/36k every home game at least.

[PeterWithesShin]

Same as most of the last 15 years probably. 30-35K if we're crap, 34-38 if we're decent, 38K+ for the big games.

[Chipsticks]

Well I just meant in comparison to last season, but yeah you're right. I remember in the MON era when we were holding 4th place we got 40,000 in for Wigan at home.

[PeterWithesShin]

We also got 27K under MON for a league game against Bolton and 30K v Blackburn & fulham in his first season. So even with the feel good factor of Ellis gone and MON as manager we were still capable of pretty crap gates, something a lot of folks seemed to forget last season when the only reason we had some low(ish) crowds was AM.

Just seen this. Gutted about Norwich as I may miss it. It would have been my son's first game- he's 3 31st August. Me, my dad , my nephew, and my son if it had have been on a Saturday. Shit. Still may be able to do Saturday but its touch and go. tut. fecking tut.
