Games Moved for TV

If you thought it was difficult getting home on a Saturday afternoon after a game..........

It will be a nightmare.

[Flamingo Lane]

Wow, and there I was, thinking that last Sunday's Super Sunday of Bournemouth 0 Chelsea 0 and Everton 0 Arsenal 1 was about as super as it ever could get.

Ever since the implementation of the Preeemier league it has swam in the wake of USA sports.

Early games / Friday games / Sunday games

Give it a few seasons and there will be 8pm KO's as well on Sundays - its all to satisfy TV audiences (and gambling) around the world.

I think the growing PL audience in the US is going to be a problem for kick-off times. They'll want to avoid NFL games (mostly Sundays Sept - Jan) so we might see more late Saturdays and Sundays out of the NFL season.

Can anyone confirm the next home league game at risk of changing from the dates/times out so far, is

Saturday 9th December 15:00 Arsenal

Or possibly Tuesday 5th December 19:45 Man City ?

Yes, up to end of Nov has been done

[Meanwood Villa]

Double checked and weekend of 25 Nov hasn't been done either but we are away that weekend

[AV82EC]

The Bournemouth game will get moved to the Sunday as we’re playing the reverse fixture against Legia on the Thursday which means the Cit£h game will probably get moved to the Wednesday.

[TheTimVilla]

And Arsenal are at PSV the following Tuesday so our game will probably be Saturday lunchtime latest.

Belated thank you on this. What with having an extra little one so now needing to not rely on our STs but to try to get extra seats when members go on sale, it’s all a bit of a commitment working out what game is when, if we can go, when it goes on sale and how to get tickets!

Man City's on Prime isn't it?

Would I be right in presuming that the Arsenal game *has* to be on the 9th December because Arsenal have a CL game on the Tuesday.  Am I right?
They could do a Friday evening I suppose

It’ll have to be the Saturday for the reason you outline. It can’t be the Friday because our game against Man City will be on the Wednesday night.
