Premier League consider new TV deal that could see 11AM Ko's to increase value in Asia

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

If fans protested about kick off times and stopped going. They would make sure to set them back to original KO times.
Unfortunately the fans don't mind, stadiums are full and football is as big as ever. Long may it last.

what about the empty seat threads? ;)

Bring it on I say.
11am GMT = 7pm WST down here in Perth ...... perfect.

We have often had 11/11.30 kick offs remember them in the 80s and he one in 2005 at home in the league.

It's not a bad idea, in fact i'd go further, 7am kick-offs. Play Stoke vs West Brom whilst everyone is still asleep and we can pretend it didn't even happen.

Protect the brand.

He didn't start.
He was sub. http://bluemoon-mcfc.co.uk/History/Matches/Match.aspx?id=4877
In fact NO Chinese players started. Lie Tie had left by then.

Well that was a waste of fucking time then wasn't it?
I stand corrected and thought that they had played. I do remember getting up at stupid o'clock to watch it on the t.v.

Football sold its soul in 1992, it's just another step to having 22.30 kick offs.

Stop being so negative. There's a lot to be said for starting drinking at 7:30am.

If we do have 11am kick offs,why could the league not make it a condition ,that the away fans have their transport(club provided) and ticket price paid for by the club(after all that would be a drop in the ocean) no Team to have more than one 11am away game. We all know if the league and clubs want this it will happen,it wil,so why not try to look after the fans.Bacon roll and can of Stella would also be nice

The biggest issue with kickoff times is that public transport to and from the ground is an absolute nightmare at the best of times.

Guarantee the first 11am game will be something like Bournmouth away at Newcastle.
