Watford FC on Sky Sports/BT Sport

Well done Sky. I now no longer need to go to Anfield. ****ERS

 

Because Leicester will play on the Saturday instead to allow them extra preparation time and Man City will be allowed an extra day's rest like all Europa clubs have and play on the Sunday. These games will also be on TV so would clash otherwise.

 

At least it gives fans a bit of notice of changes beforehand. I am sure there is a rule where they have to be announced a certain period before as well.

 

Can we do it on a cold and wet evening in Stoke though?

 

Looks like we get home games televised because we're seen as the underdogs.

I'd much rather get to see away matches televised legally and home schedules not messed around, but that I suppose is life.

 

**** sake

 

It means they get our 8 game requirement out of the way before the games start becoming important and they can show the top 4 every week.

 

They will discuss Liverpool for 30 minutes/an hour before all these games anyway.

 

As mentioned always prefer away games to be on TV but saying that this suits me quite well as I probably won't be able to afford/justify going to a game after the Hull match until the New Year.

Perhaps we are nice and easy for the Sky crews to get to over the festive period too so they can all get home nice and quickly.

It does make me laugh you get half moaning that 'Sky hate us' and the other half moaning about Sky putting us on TV.

 

So that's 3 away fixtures I've not been able to go to because of TV. Burnley, Boro & now Stoke. *******s. Although with hindsight, pleased not to have made it to Burnley!

 

****ing stupid having a game on new years day at 1. I certainly won't be in a fit state to leave my house.

 

It doesn't really matter about the being on Sky bit as most games are watchable anyway no matter whether home or away, it's the sh!tty early KO times that become annoying.

Bugger - didn't pick up on that! I'll probably still be drunk at 1.30pm on new years day!

 

1.30 New Years Day ? I'll still be cxnted from Boxing Day to get up for that

 

I think there is more than a little truth in this......on the other hand Hull (twice) and Boro have home televised matches in the festive period!

 

I won't have even got back to my house by that time. Hopefully I can stop off at a bar like a K N O B B E R after my traditional NYE rave in London to watch the inevitable and now traditional Spurs defeat.

 

Lunchtime on Boxing Day and New Year's Day, that's tradition reasserting itself.

 

Or cold and snowy for that matter.
How many of our boys will be wearing gloves in either case I wonder? (apart from Gomes, obviously)

 

Happy with Boxing Day - get that done nice and early and then beers

 

Shame about Stoke
Was a quality away day last year.

 

You mean in general?

 

Nice. Much better than midday nonsense.

 

BT should stick to telephones

 

Excellent. All day on the **** and remember nothing about the turgid 1-0 defeat.

 

Was that our only tv pick in the latest lot? That must be 7 or 8 home games moved this season. Clearly a favourite with the TV crews to ensure being home at a decent time.

 

**** you Sky!

 

So happy this wasnt United away. That would have been a real tv change kick in the balls.

 

Chelsea Away match moved

The chelsea away game is now slated in for Monday March 13 8pm kick off but is sublect to either us or chelsea still being in the FA cup for the 6th round

 

I am loving the new way of spelling Chealse

 

Not terrible as it is not one of my favourite away trips.

 

My dyslexia and forgetting to proof read my post kicking in

Kick off would be good for me as i live a 20 min walf from Stanford Bridge

 

AS a glory hunter, i like my annual away game at Chelsea. Might have to go to city instead now
