changes to fixtures.

Sorry if you thought I'd have them here. I think we need a 'sticky' when the fixture list changes come out (either from the Police or Sky/BT) so we have a easy point of reference when they happen sporadically through the season.
Anyone know when the first lot of changes are expected?

 

No news yet Shaper.

 

I hope we don't get many Monday night games .....Football don't seem right playing on a Monday...

 

The Man U fixture is likely to get changed - it's Van Gaals 1st game, so my guess is that it could be a Sunday afternoon slot

 

I think this will be a televised game, as you say it will be Van Gals first game, so will attract the cameras.

 

wouldn't they have thought of that before the draw was released?

 

It's the TV people that dictate that stuff and the PL has to make the fixture list before the TV people make their decisions on what games they wanna move.

 

sad sad world

 

Yes, let's have a whole page of stickies. Just look up fixtures somewhere like BBC website and you'll see the latest info. Don't know why we need yet more stickies.

 

But we get very well paid for it.

 

Bt showing it 12.45 sat 16th apparently

 

I'll be happy with that

 

Yes its confirmed that BT Sport has secured the rights to Man United season-opener against Swansea City at 12.45pm on Saturday Aug 16

 

Great, dont get back from hols till 1am on the 16th, that is going to be a very long day with a trip to manchester at the end of it. Was hoping for the sunday.

 

First four changes of fixtures.
Manure
Stoke
leceister
