    NUFC have now confirmed alterations to no less than five of our upcoming Premier League fixtures to facilitate live TV transmission:

    Mon 03.12.2012 Wigan (h) (8pm) SKY
    Mon 10.12.2012 Fulham (a) (8pm) SKY
    Sat 15.12.2012 Man City (h) (12.45pm) SKY
    Sat 29.12.2012 Arsenal (a) (5.30pm) ESPN
    Wed 02.01.2013 Everton (h) (8pm) SKY

    Regrettably we've copped for two more outings in the dreaded Monday night slot, which automatically makes attendance for some fans difficult and downright impossible for others.

    And those Monday changes have a double effect on our Europa League campaign, meaning that we have two fewer days to prepare for the Bordeaux away game - but two additional days before facing Fulham in London.

    A Saturday night away game in London brings with it additional travel headaches, while delaying the Everton home fixture means that our recent habit of not playing on News Year Day continues - the last Jan 1 fixture featuring Newcastle was back in 2007.

    Here's how it all shapes up:

    Sun 07.10.2012 Manchester United (h) 4pm (Sky)
    Sun 21.10.2012 mackems (a) 1.30pm (Sky)
    Thu 25.10.2012 Brugge (h) 8.05pm (TV tbc)
    Sun 28.10.2012 West Brom (h) 3pm (no TV)

    Sun 04.11.2012 Liverpool (a) 4pm (SKY)
    Thu 08.11.2012 Brugge (a) 6pm (TV tbc)
    Sun 11.11.2012 West Ham (h) 3pm (no TV)
    Sat 17.11.2012 Swansea (h) 3pm (no TV)
    Thu 22.11.2012 Maritimo (h) 8.05pm (TV tbc)
    Sun 25.11.2012 Southampton (a) 3pm (no TV)
    Wed 28.11.2012 Stoke (a) 7.45pm (no TV)

    Mon 03.12.2012 Wigan (h) 8pm (Sky)
    Thu 06.12.2012 Bordeaux (a) 6pm (TV tbc)
    Mon 10.12.2012 Fulham (a) 8pm (Sky)
    Sat 15.12.2012 Manchester City (h) 12.45pm (Sky)
    Sat 22.12.2012 QPR (h) 3pm (no TV)
    Wed 26.12.2012 Manchester United (a) 3pm (no TV)
    Sat 29.12.2012 Arsenal (a) 5.30pm (ESPN)

    Wed 02.01.2013 Everton (h) 8pm (Sky)
    Weekend of Sat 05.01.2013 FAC3

    I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't gamble, I don't go out with naughty girls.

    I guess the only bad habit I've got is that I tell porkies sometimes.

    Always liked the trip to Craven Cottage.

    8pm on a Monday doesn't make it as appealing as a 3pm on a Saturday though.

    Hmmm, a bit of family rivalry.

    Hope you have the last <laugh>.
