[Football] Arsenal v Forest

[WATFORD zero]

Arsenal have introduced a new 'online' ticket system for this season.

Kick off delayed, huge queues outside. If the game finishes after 3.00 will they cut off live coverage as the other matches kiick off ?

Isn't the black out 2.45 - 5.15? Would be likely to be playing beyond 2.45 with a 1pm kick off even without ridiculoust added on time.

Them's the rules. Someone somewhere is going to get a bollocking

Hang on a minute, they’ve prioritised the fans at the ground over the TV audience? (Fans get in at the cost of the end of the game being cut from TV coverage).

 

[Acker79]

I'm pretty sure there were stories last year or so about efforts to get rid of the black out, or loosen it. Wouldn't be surprised to see them broadcast the whole thing ("extenuating circumstances") and the discussion to come back around.

If Forest are winning at 14:45, ALL loyal Gooners will miss the end of the match.

That's all except the drongos behind the goal who'll carry on completely oblivious of the score

Rule is you cannot schedule a game to start in the time window

No issues if it over runs
