A tweet from Watford FC wfcbadgemoose Watford FC Official Afternoon Tweeters. Another couple of fixture changes: 12pm kick-off on Boxing Day and Blackpool home game moved to Good Friday,3pm kick-off
H, noon Boxing Day kick offs are pretty standard in the Met Police area, have been for a good 20 years? Our problem is leaving the in-laws on Christmas Day night so that we can get back in time, so I usually hope for an away game on Boxing Day! Playing on Good Friday is a good idea, cos that means we can go away after!
i like noon boxing day kick offs coz we go out with friends on Boxing day traditionally and it means they don't have to wait too long for us to eat! lol, but for those who have to visit relatives, i can understand the problem! Thankfully i don't Yep, like the good friday idea
List of all changes so far are here; http://www.watfordfc.com/page/NewsDetail/0,,10400~2382751,00.html Forest home game has been put back to 5.15 as it is now on BBC - only game selected so far!
So now the dates have been clarified we are in a better position to pick a nesties meet up! I know southampton was in the running , (although Forest would make it easier for me to sell the idea to Mrs N )
Boxing Day change is annoying...two-hour drive there and back means either missing most of the home festivity or missing the game. I know which one Mrs H will vote for
Not happy about Boxing Day, and I'm sure Cardiff will be even less happy (which is a plus I suppose). All things considered though, I'm a lot happier about the fixtures now than I was a couple of weeks ago. The majority of the changes have been positive.
for the first time in a long time, there are no matches on important days (like big Jewish holidays) and all the saturdays i know i wouldn't make seem to be away games..someone is on my side this season! (though the Birmingham game is a bit of a pain coz i work Sundays! i'll have to do some shuffling)
At the moment, I'm going to the first 2 games (should be first 3 but got a family reunion in Sussex that day), Cardiff on Boxing Day and the nesties match. Any more will be decided during the season.
