Number of home games on a Saturday at 3pm?

[Indestructable]

The number of fixtures in 2010 played at home on a Saturday at 3pm so far is nil and looks like there won't be any more for the rest of the season.
Think it is time for a campaign to have a minimum number of games in this time slot. Not looking to have loads as realise the TV fixtures and the money that goes with it is important, but there should be at least one of these fixtures every other month.
Time for paying fans to be put first!

I don't think we have another this season, i'm used to it now anyway, was like this most of last season to.

does my head in,
i stopped getting a season ticket cause of it a couple of years back
it was costing me more than a months mortgage and i couldn't go to at least half the games
i aint made of money and it was a big financial commitment for me.

I hate night games most & we have two in a week coming up.

villa game is still sat 3pm, but i will be amazed if it isn't shifted for tv coverage

There should be a top class football match every day, be it cup, league Euro. Saturday 3pm is history.

It even does my head in (Sunday's a work day over here) so it must really piss you lot back home off.

The ridiculous Europa League really doesn't help matters either. It seems that whenever Sky haven't chosen to cover us, our opponents have played on Thursday and the game is moved anyway.

I love night games, think it's a better atmosphere!

Yeah, more Saturday 3pm but FFS don't make it a rule. Hint's in the name - its a big commitment to get to evening matches - so I guess we'll have to put up with Saturday lunchtime games - Ha Ha I got tickets I got tickets - see you on 17-Apr

Ha ha.

I always hated Monday night games that had been held back from the weekend, but absolutely loved extra midweek fixtures on Tuesday/Wednesday night. In fact, I still feel the same now even though I only get to watch us on the telly.

I am not against night games or sunday games come to that, but just think it is out of control and we need to have a home game at 3 on a saturday once in a Blue Moon.

Villa tickets are now available, but I don't think it has been announced when the game will be played yet, so how can they sell tickets?<br /><br />-- Mon Apr 12, 2010 9:04 pm --<br /><br />City v Villa is at 3pm on a Saturday, guess I owe Gary Cook a pint!!
