[atomised]

that'd be an awful time for new years eve kick off if true

Not QUITE in the same league as 8pm on Boxing Day. Anything after that is a walk in the park.

 

[trueblue]

Saints away live on Amazon, although that was always on the cards. Arsenal moved to a 5.30pm kick-off NYE for Sky, thereby screwing over lots of plans. Everton away now Tues 3rd Jan, 7.45pm. Not televised, seemingly.

***See the Dec/Jan TV changes thread now has this covered****

 

[Dirty Dave]

Confirmed:

26 Dec 3pm: Southampton (a)
31 Dec 5.30pm: Arsenal (h)
3 Jan 7.45pm: Everton (a)

I take it after tuning into BBC1for Bloodlands early last night, 8.56pm, Dr Who's not on Xmas Day?

 

[Bob!]

So the matches for 14th (h v Liverpool) and 21st (A v Leicester) are still waiting for the TV picks

 

[Invicta]

That we'll and truly stuffs up NYE plans. 2 tickets going on exchange !

 

[Lenny Rider]

Apparently there is a good chance Palace home game will be on December 21st

Not ideal for us if Argentina play Belgium in the WC Final on 18th Dec?

 

[Bob!]

Apparently there is a good chance Palace home game will be on December 21st

Can only happen if both us and Palace get knocked out in the next round of the league cup though.

 

[dazzer6666]

Apart from maybe Trossard not sure either team will have any players in WC Final

Sanchez and MacAllister more risk of being missing than Trossard I would think.

5.30 pm on NYE sounds like a nightmare for travel. Trains normal end very early, so hopefully additional park and ride put on.

Probably similar size crowd to Boxing day last year.

They really do have us 'customers' at the heart of all their decisions, don't they?!

 

[studio150]

So Arsenal fans will have no trains available for the return journey, along with all home fans who use the trains, - Brilliant.
And Everton, I may be back in time for Breakfast.

I've just checked trains from/to Haywards Heath, and *at present* the trains appear to be pretty regular both before and after the game. Presumably this may change when the "festive timetable" is published.

 

[Official Old Man]

So Arsenal away KOs at 5:30 on NYE. Suppose I could moan but why, no one at Sky, BT or the FA give a damn about us.
EDIT
Yes, wrong way around.

Oh yes he is!

Home not away

The Arsenal game on NYE is at home, so a bigger ball ache for the Arsenal fans

 

[HalfaSeatOn]

Been watching live festive football for many many years but I think I’ve finally been weighed down on to the sofa

 

[Gazwag]

Train staff will be striking no doubt so they can enjoy NYE and meanwhile we have been f***ed two Christmas' running

 

[Terry Butcher Tribute Act]

Everton kick off time is an insult to travelling supporters
