    Our Barclays Premier League home fixture against Arsenal next month has been selected for live television coverage by Sky Sports.

    This means that the date of the game will now move from Saturday 2nd May to Monday 4th May with kick-off at 8pm.

    Suits me just fine. Can't imagine Gunners fans will be too happy.

    Bloody annoying. My son will miss the game now (no night matches if at school the next day) and he was looking forward to us beating Arsenal. As it's a bank couldn't they have at least put it on in the afternoon holiday?

    As Southwest corner said - why is it always home games?

    Lots of people work Bank Holidays, I noticed there are fixtures in the Championship tomorrow, I know people that have to work Good Friday who wouldn't be able to go and before you say people work weekends too it's different when you know in advance you will work weekends and games are mainly played on weekends but to move one to a Monday afternoon, bank holiday or not, would be more unacceptable.

    By the way I might now be missing the game as I am away that week.

    I think you should stop being a square and let your son go to the game.

    This is a good opportunity to show Allams that you mean business. If you care about the future of our club under their ownership, dont go to the game and watch it on tv. There is no more powerful message to the world than an empty stadium.

    Either do something about the name change or shut up about it.

    that is sh*te, i was trying to get my son to bring his mate up for the weekend (he is an Arsenal fan) to see the sights and take in the game too, there is no way they will get back ready for work the next day so the weekend is off grrrrrrr

    I have to agree that there are definite benefits to being in the Championship and this is one of them

    I'm moving back to the East Riding on 2nd so technically I could now go to this game. As he'll be asking for 50 notes it's a non-starter. Ergo I'll follow your advice and not attend.

    Perfect news.

    I'm away this weekend and Monday Night Football was the only time I could have made it. In truth, I've expected this to be moved for weeks now - it's one of the more lucrative games of the weekend and has "race for fourth" and "relegation battle" hanging on it.

    Good a fixture to separate the real fans from the plastics. Well done Sky.

    Nowhere near as irritating/depressing as seeing our club post on the Internet for everyone to see under the name Hull Tigers.

    As there were no trains to London after this game, Arsenal have chartered their own train and are discounting the cost of travel fo their fans.

    That's what you do with the ASI fund City, you ****ers.

    Maybe our club wil chip in a bit of ASI money to reduce the cost even more for those poor Arsenal fans.
