What day and time do you think the home match v Palace will be next season?

[churley1]

If the Met Police genuinely believe Palace fans are as much of a threat as Millwall fans (from the horses mouth at a Q&A meeting), they should surely have both games early season where there's no indication of promotion/relegation incentives.

Of course, I'm only saying that as I'll be in the UK during August/Sept!

I can't believe anyone has even thought about this. who cares enough to give it a thought

People who are passionate and know their history?

 

[Bozza]

Palace at home will be a Sunday lunchtime. Fact.

 

[pottert]

I think 12pm Saturday or Sunday

We HAVE to beat them next season

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

It will be played behind closed doors.

We HAVE to beat them next season

I thought we didn't mean anything to you now ?
Both games 12.00 kick offs, massive police overkill and the return of the Selhurst wall.

Don't hold your breath. The Olympics, the Paralympics, & the Lib Dem conference in Brighton (September) will all impact on games at Selhurst/the Amex to some degree.

Thats better , show these non believers what your history is, not just one season.

From our end, I've heard they want lunchtime kick-offs on a Sunday.

I've heard this on very good authority

I know the man who puts the fixtures together, and no club or police authority can request a fixture on a particular date. They can only say when they want a club to be away from home in order to avoid a clash with another local event - eg Pride last summer.

Once he has produced the fixtures, they go to the leagues, clubs and police, who can comment and ask for changes, but it would be very difficult to move a game from a weekend to midweek - ie into another set of games. More likely it would be a question of moving a Saturday game to Sunday or Saturday morning.

Then, when everyone is as happy as possible, the fixtures are published. And still Sir Alex Ferguson complains ...

TV can move the times and days of games within certain parameters - eg Saturday to Sunday or Monday evening, or Tuesday to Wednesday - but only after they have been published. They can't ask for certain games to be played on certain weekends. The so-called "Super Sundays" are largely a matter of chance, as no-one knows which clubs will be in the top four on any given weekend.

 

[Durlston]

Sunday with a noon kick-off at the AMEX.

Saturday 1.00pm at Smelhurst Park.

 

[Trelford Mills Guide Dog]

Boxing day would be nice.

Hark now hear,
The Brighton sing ... etc, etc.
