Not seen a thread on this topic, apologies if I’ve missed it but anyway.

If this goes well with regard viewing figures, which I’m sure it will. Surely only a matter of time until champions league games will be played at weekends pushing league games to midweek. Be a joke for the match going fan. Or does anyone feel it’s a potentially positive move?

I can't say i watch tv shows on prime time slots anyway so to me it is no bad thing.

Doesn’t bother me personally, but my priorities are different from others. More generally, the wants and needs of match going fans carry far too little weight with the game’s administrators. There is an inbalance in the game that needs addressing.

I am interested in the social dynamics it creates.

Presumably, there will come a time when matches kick off early on a Saturday morning to satisfy television demands in the Far East.

Good stuff. The more football the better for me.

I think SKY actually want attendances to fall so they can use it as a bargaining chip to pay clubs less money in the future.

Nothing gets in the way of the mighty X and celeb so unless its us it'll get recorded maybe

Also the Sunday games now kicking off a 16.30 instead of 16.00 , only half an hour but it makes it harder for those having to travel.
