i would not be surprised if Utd away on boxing day was the 8pm kick off
Ridiculous decision if true.That's a 9.30 return home for me and I'm not that far from VP.
There's talk of matches being moved to Xmas Eve this year, it falls on a Sunday. The last time a match was played then was in '95, Leeds V Newton Heath. I remember it very well because while I was watching the girl I was seeing decided it was the perfect time to phone and give me the sack. Anyway, I'd wager our game is unlikely to move, Sheffield Utd at home should stay where it is I would've thought.The same situation is mooted for NYE but I don't think games that day are particularly unusual.
They really dont give a shit about football fans do they?If anything covid played right into their hands and taught them a watching audience is no worse than the backdrop of sound from supportersJust like my dad said when they paid Haynes £100 per week - the game is gone to shit
Man U away at 8pm on Boxing Day would just be a huge piss take
A few more Saturday night and Friday night games as well. The majority of PL games will now be live on TV. 270 out of 380 live.
