Re: Fixtures

Sky are saying that each Championship team will be shown live at least 24 times. That's 24 times we won't play at 3pm on a Saturday. Assuming that 24 is 12 home and 12 away games, and assuming that our New years day and Easter Monday games arent shown live, it leaves 9 Saturdays we get an afternoon 3pm game at CCS.

Re: Fixtures

The working man’s game eh!! Kick off times were geared to helping workers get to games in the past. It’s a slippery slope the game is heading towards supporter (in the ground) wise.

I can just about remember when City’s Saturday afternoon matches kicked off at 3.15 to give those who worked Saturday mornings (there was a time not that long ago when it was a five and a half day working week) a bit more time to get to the game.

It was also because the pubs SHUT at 3.00pm on a Saturday

Which I think is the more likely reason (between you and Bob's suggestions).
