The common consensus seems to be that the 12:30 kick offs are about as popular as a fart in a lift. Both with players/managers, and fans, particularly away fans.As pointed out above, arsenal played Wednesday night and as BT picked their game they can't play at 1230 so was moved to 8pm.
I wouldn't be surprised to see BT using this to their advantage in future and picking Champions league teams for the 1230 slot and then having the game moved to 8pm, they will have known picking Arsenal meant 8pm which they see as a prime time slot.
