Is it to do with the Champions League that week or something? Are Arsenal playing on the Wednesday away? Maybe the last train from Kings Cross to Durham is about 5 or 6pm (it used to be about then anyway) so they made it a 1.30pm kick off? Just a guess mind?
I usually go down the Emirates every year and have a night out in Landan so bit fo a shame its been moved to the Sunday, either way with the Arsenal playing midweek and their current poor form I would really think we could get something from the game
I don't think Arsenal are playing midweek before the fixture. Must have been moved solely for the TV. Makes a change, Sky not considering SAFC fans' journeys.
