It was at the fans forum the season Hyppia joined... cant remember the exact quote. Makes sense though sat pm people have things to do in the evening etc. Friday PM people can get plastered and deal with a sat am hangover?
I seem to remember PB saying he loved Friday games as the fans drank loads more beer and he would be a fan of all home games on a Friday night from a sales point of view.
