Jesus h christ, lets just play at 4.00am for the yanks or midnight for the asian market, football 3pm saturday all day,i know we are governed by sky and money, but why would you choose to play on a monday night ????Bit controversial maybe but I think the Premier League should not have ANY games on Saturday at 3. Leave that to the football league and non-league. Premier should be Sunday and maybe Monday night. Saturday only for champions league teams playing the following Tuesday. (Could be the 1245 and 1730 games).

We should always play Saturday or Sunday. It's still the time most people are off work. It's also the best time for travel (not that sky care) it's much quieter on the roads and trains. Friday is a big no no for me, not that I can't make the games myself, I can, but can you imagine the fans that have to travel? Nightmare.

Correct. Due to work and the travel involved, I can only consider saturday games, ideally the 15:00 and 17:30 kick offs. Not everybody lives within an hour's drive of the ground.We should always play Saturday or Sunday. It's still the time most people are off work.

Will be funny seeing the swamp half empty on a Friday though!
I drive home southbound everyday on the M6 and northbound is a complete car park on a Friday!

i accept this totally. my point would be for the powers that be just to have some commonsense when choosing games. like monday night let it be spurs v qpr or villa v stoke and not swansea v newcastle and the like. same with new years day etc. what a blockbuster it would be for the tv companies if city played utd. ok their fans have to travel from London but fuck em.

agree mate entirely, not enough consideration given to the paying fan, last season palace away on a monday night was a disgrace
