The Manchester United game, which takes place on Saturday 13 February 2016 at the Stadium of Light will now kick-off at the slightly earlier time of 12.45pm. The away fixture against the Hammers, which takes place on Saturday 27 February 2016 at Upton Park will also move to the earlier kick-off time of 12.45pm.'
Me too but 750k per TV game makes them quite lucrative. Those two games are an extra 1.5m revenue to us. I hate them but the money helps.
Didn't realise it was that much - kerching! Hate it as well but better than a Monday night or Sunday afternoon!
None of the slots are for me like, I'm a Sataurday 3pm man like most. But if other teams are getting more tv time they're getting the jump on revenue. We don't get much tv and we always finish low in the league. This means most of the league are out earning us in the tv deal. TV 750k per game and 1.5m per place. Entertain and win games and a team is going to get the jump on rivals.
