Villa Match moved

[Rawlie19]

I want them to move the Newcastle game as I come back from Skiing that day and would like to go up again. Sunday or Monday will be great please!

Fantastic - was going to miss the Saturday game but I'll be back for Sunday.

Setanta's fixtures now announced till the end of March. We've only featured twice on Setanta this season. What's the rule on number of appearances per broadcaster with the current TV deal? Could see a few of our games being shifted around in April and early May ...

As I've said in Meeting Up - my money's on Shitanta moving our away game at Newcastle to the Monday night

Depending on the TV deal contractural terms, I could quite easily see the Newcastle and Arsenal away games and Fulham home game being shifted in April. Spurs in early May wouldn't be a bad bet either. Let's hope Derby away will be too meaningless to televise.

Luckily we're having our Newcastle lads weekend away in conjunction with the Boro game.

Football > Rugby

The final death knell


YET another game has been moved..YET another game that my daughter will miss


Her Stundant ST works out a lot dearer than mine (standard ST) so far at this rate.




SKY (who I have always hated) and Setanta (who I have always associated with the Irish)...may you kill that fatted calf once and for all...............

Since "SKY" has monopolised on the "sport thing"

We have lost terrestrial coverage of ENGLISH Cricket

Some ENGLAND Football games

and

MOST England Rugby games


if you frickers think that I am going to sign-up/subscribe (and pay) for what once was free then you can fIIck right off

SKY TV?

entertainment for suckers



good adverts tho'

Hmm, I know it easier for Villa to offer refunds as their fans are only small in number for this game but I wonder if RFC could not have done the same. Oh and Sunday at 12:30pm is shit, where the oxf*rd am I meant to go for a pre-match pint now?

[RG30]

I voiced my displeasure to the PL league yesterday, I accept games will be moved for TV but 4 weeks notice is unacceptable. What I want to know is were RFC asked or told to move the game?

Interesting isn't it that if this was a concert promoter or theatre moving the date of something you had booked to see, you would be entitled to have a refund. But, of course, football fans aren't entitled to such protection. In their case, the law has just one purpose and that is to be used against them!

Do clubs give a toss? Of course not. They've already got their season ticlet money safely in the bank. Television money is their rightful bonus, albeit gained at the expense of supporters.

God how I'll celebrate when the cynical money making business, that English professional football at the top levels has become, finally implodes. Maybe the predicted general economic recession will have a silver lining afterall.

Great news for viewers down under

Yes, I would like to know if RFC made strong representations about this to the PL/Sky? And, if not, why not?

You might be still full of beer from the night before.

Mind you we played very well against Villa in an early kick-off last year, but that was a Saturday and Villa are a stronger outfit this season.

[Gordons Cumming]

That's a shame.

I was hoping to celebrate a win on my birthday.

Never mind.

That's not a bad shout actually, might finish my drinking around 5am so I'll still be drunk by KO. One can of Tennents Super on the bus and I'll be ready to go

I wake up at 12.30 on Sundays FFS.
