Looks like Burnley will be a 3pm kick off and a good crowd, Burnley will sell out. Cardiff tickets look like selling out despite the distance, kick off time and live TV. We were allocated 3213 so should make some noise down there.
Cardiff will be a cracking day. Shame about the early kick off but a 3200 allocation is excellent - we’ll sell out, no doubt about it.
Some fixtures have been moved for TV. At least they are giving plenty warning this season. Home vs Leeds, Friday 4th October, 8pm KO Away vs Hull, Sunday 20th October, 3pm KO Away vs Preston, Wednesday 6th November, 8pm KO Home vs West Brom, Tuesday 26th November, 8pm KO Away vs Sheff Utd, Friday 29th November, 8pm KO Home vs Stoke, Saturday 7th December, 12:30 KO Home vs Sheff Utd, Wednesday 1st January, 8pm KO Home vs Portsmouth, Sunday 5th January, 3pm KO Plan accordingly.
Saturday early kick offs and weeknight matches are the bloody worst. Our old office was in Newcastle and lad in work with is a mag, he used to bring in some beers and chuck them in the fridge when they had a late kick off. Got ready and had a few beers before heading out on the piss then just got his missus to bring him in the next day! Wouldn’t be as bad if I couldn’t that mind
Doesn't do me many favours that ... ... Stoke at home is better Portsmouth, the rest are hard work. please log in to view this image
The atmosphere at home to Leeds was superb last season. That was a Tuesday night. It’ll be even better this season on the Friday
Sheff Utd, Burnley, Boro and Leeds away games all been moved to a friday or a monday night. Our 4 biggest away games of the season. Doesn't sit right with me.
I enjoyed Burnley away last time on the Friday night like. Atmosphere was very good and we were unlucky not to win
Being a bit selfish I wish they were all early KO as it is better for me as we are 8 hrs ahead here. Doesn’t really matter though as I set my alarm and watch matches anyway but because of work sometimes miss second half.
I absolutely hate early kick offs, part of the experience is going for a couple of beers with my old man and my mate before walking over. Completely knackers it up as it's not the same going out after... especially if it's a disappointing result!
