agree mate entirely, not enough consideration given to the paying fan, last season palace away on a monday night was a disgrace
I love the idea of Friday night football...Finish work and straight out for a pint and some scran
Saying that...I suppose it's not so ideal for fans who live/work outside of Manchester
Finish work and straight down to Norwich perhaps, wont leave much time for a pint before Kick Off.
The tv companies are missing a trick here, they could put a game on for Saturday mornings - 10am - would get great viewing figures in the far east which is the biggest market there is. The other option worth considering is Saturday evening - 8pm - no traffic jams beforehand & roads nice and quiet for travelling home afterwards - and a great viewing time for our burgeoning US market. I'm sure its only a matter of time before the EPL and the tv companies look to exploit these two tasty slots.
In fairness, Palace was a bank holiday Monday. How many complained when City v U****d was a Monday night after it arguably won us the league?
I'm going to prefer Friday night matches to Monday night. It'll almost certainly require a hotel in town but a bed and a cooked breakfast does the world of good.
Stop putting stupid ideas into their heads. 10 am? piss off
Personally i'm looking forward to Friday night games. I do 8am - 4pm at work, dump the car off at home and would be in town for 5pm, then the weekend then starts with City!
