The Derby - Mon 30th at 8pm

Been told by someone who works in the ticket office that the Derby has been changed to Monday 30th April 20:00 kick off.

I like to rely on official announcements.

Just giving a heads up to people who have to travel. The person has been given notice that they will be working that night

thanks for the heads up, no probs for me but good of you to let distant blues know the score.

Fuck me. If true I'm taking the day off and getting rat arsed first.

When is any official announcement likely?

Am not being funny, btw. I know that people who need to fly to matches won't be making reservations based on info coming out of the ticket office. At least I don't think they will.

Said this before, it's one game that the police would probably prefer to be a night match.

There's a distinct likelihood that one set of fans could be celebrating the title that day, and an early kick off and a nice day could have led to trouble all over Greater Manchester

Maybe they'll be working at the trophy celebrations at the ground?

I hate Monday night games, not too pleased if this is true and a bit surprised that the cops haven't pushed for Sunday lunchtime.

Could see this being true becuase skys fixture for the TV game are coming out soon. Still waiting to see if the Arsenal game is going to be moved before booking the train.
