Yes - I wouldn't be surprised if that was on the cards, too. If sky say a game will KO at midnight, it will do!

Difference is in Spain they are night time people Don't eat until late or go out until late.
Difference is they can go to those kick off times and laces are still open after midnight. Apart from Bilbao which isn’t as lively as Hull apparently.
I know someone who used to spend part of the year in Valencia. He went to one game which had extra time and penalties and got of the ground after 1 am. Still found places for a bite to eat and have a few beers on the way home.

Yeah, when you see a La Liga game with a kick-off time at 20:00, it’s actually 21:00 for them.

They have games which kick off at 10 their time. We would have people leaving before they arrive in this country.
 
In Australia our most popular sporting codes (AFL and NRL) have Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday 1/2pm, Saturday 5pm, Saturday 7/8pm, Sunday 1pm, Sunday 3pm and Sunday 6pm as regular time slots.
 
British are all in bed at 9pm
Good luck if a game kicks off at 8pm

In spain games finish at 4am and they go for paella after
Just a diff class

Never in bed that early but **** staying up until 12 on a work night like the Spanish seem to.

They manage. Their life expectancy is higher than ours. Their rating on indexes for happiness and contentment is higher than ours. But there you go.

Gets fairly cold in Madrid in winter. It is the highest capital above sea level in Europe. Snows fairly regularly in Madrid in winter.
 
I don't doubt that, but it's not for me. Don't believe their working hours are that much different to ours either.

The lazy sods have naps /siestas in the middle of the day while on shift don’t they, that probably helps. I couldn’t do it either, up at 4:30am for work so would just be knackered at work.

You don’t seem to have much idea about what goes on in Spain. Though it is very slowly moving to our hours. Than they will be as miserable as we are.

Never claimed I did, oh knowledgable one. I’m sure it will take them a while to be as miserable as you though and moan about everything.
 
There's definitely been a lull during the afternoon every time I've been. Places closing for a couple of hours. What they do during that time I don't know and is entirely up to them, but it's definitely "a thing"
