April TV Fixtures

In answer to your question bell south, the answer is yes and no. It will depend on whether the rags will drop any more points between now and the derby, in April. They would probably have to drop 6pts for us to win it before the derby, and we would have to win all our games for this to happen. If they do drop some points then yes it could be won before the derby, or even won on derby day, if they don't drop any points then it will be won after the derby.
As it stands all we need to do is match them and we can win it on derby day.
 
Sky would love a Friday night Manchester Derby to rescue their piss poor coverage on that day. GMP would have other ideas but wouldn't surprise me if it happened.
Champs League games either side of that weekend, Saturday is the only day they can safely schedule the derby without risking having to move it again

Since when has that stopped sky fucking up our fixtures?
:)
 
I suspect that even if mathematically the rags can't catch us around derby day it's the dippers we'll need to be ahead of by X amount of points to seal the league.
 
Finally ...


Five of City’s upcoming Premier League games have been rearranged, including the Manchester derby at the Etihad Stadium.

The United match, plus the away trips to Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United and the home game against Swansea City have all been moved for TV coverage in April.

Meanwhile, Brighton’s visit to the Etihad Stadium in March has been postponed due to the Seagulls involvement in the FA Cup sixth round.

City v United remains on Saturday 7 April, but will kick-off at the later time of 5.30pm to allow for Sky Sports coverage, though this change is dependent on either side’s involvement in the Champions League the following Tuesday.

We’ll take on Spurs at Wembley on Saturday 14 April, with kick-off pushed back to 7.45pm. Sky Sports will broadcast the game.

Swansea will now make the journey north a day later than originally planned.

The Etihad Stadium fixture is scheduled for 4.30pm on Sunday 22 April and the Sky cameras will also be there for that one.

However, this is subject to City not having a Champions League game the following Tuesday and Swansea’s participation in the FA Cup semi-final.

Our trip to the London Stadium also takes place a day later, with West Ham v City instead kicking off at 2.15pm on Sunday 29 April.

This game could change again if we are involved in the Champions League the following Tuesday.
