Burnley game brought forward

[Whore Jackie]

Now on Friday 17 February, live on SKY.

[T.R.O.L.I.]

Happy enough with that - quite enjoy a home game on a Friday night.

Elongates the weekend but makes the Saturday feel empty i find! Still decent though, a nice under the flood-lights game!

[Fox Talbot]

Kills the game for me. Reduces the crowd, the atmosphere, mates can't go, leaves a hole in Saturday.

All for what - letting 5000 in Burnley watch a game they would otherwise not see? Is anyone else really interested to watch games like this on TV?

[Maguire]

Stop moving games you pcunts, it's really irrit8ing/confusing

[Barney]

Sky moved this game. They have given the clubs/fans around five and a half weeks notice. They are moving the game forward from a Saturday to the Friday. Is it really that confusing ??

No doubt i'll make it to the stadium, it's just a real arse ache for those of us who have other things going on in our lives/plan our weekends in advance

Yeah, I agree with that. And part of it is supporting a club that you know is probably going to be on TV 5 or 6 times a season.
In the 70s, 80s and early 90s Reading live on TV was very very rare. Seems a little surreal these days knowing that most seasons we will be live on TV quite a few times. Sign of the times I guess.

£5 ticket offer returns for season ticket holders - save your mates a wad and give them a night to remember when Reading host Burnley on 17th Feb

The club make me laugh.

Bristol City moved from night game to a Saturday - great for the fans.

Burnley moved from Saturday to night game - great for the fans.

Bristol was moved at (both) club's request. Burnley was moved at Sky's request. What's your point?

.....and for those who work weekday shifts...now another game that is off limits


Really glad I jacked the ST thing

I am really loving the Arsene Wenger comment

[urz13]

What about the Burnley fans who have already bought train tickets for the Saturday? Sky should decide all the games at the start of the season, even if it means a few shit ones.

I understand that the factors behind the movements were different, just pointing out that the "spin" is somewhat contradictory.
