[Albion] Final round of televised games: Albion v Derby moved to Mon. 2nd May @ 2:30pm

[Bozza]

I understand an announcement on the final round of televised games will be made later today.

The prime one, as discussed at length previously, is our home game v Derby, currently scheduled for 3pm on Saturday 30th April.

Odds of it staying at that time? I'd say 0.8 %

 

[Petee]

Birmingham v Middlesbrough 15:00
Bolton v Hull 15:00
Brentford v Fulham 15:00
Brighton v Derby 15:00
Bristol City v Huddersfield 15:00
Burnley v QPR 15:00
Ipswich v MK Dons 15:00
Leeds v Charlton 15:00
Nottm Forest v Wolves 15:00
Reading v Preston 15:00
Rotherham v Blackburn 15:00
Sheff Wed v Cardiff 15:00

Can see it definitely being moved, especially with those fixtures

 

[sparkie]

Certain to be moved.

Almost definitely will be a friday night I reckon

Pretty good I'd say - there are more attractive games that weekend

Birmingham v Middlesbrough
Burnley v QPR (clinching the title)
Sheff Wed v Cardiff (the last play-off spot)

Likely to be a Friday game, plus 12.30 and 5.30 Saturday games on TV, so it's a deffo mover for me.

It's a Bank Holiday Monday that weekend - I'm not sure if that influences things or not.

Shitsticks. I've just booked flights and tickets for 5 of us coming over from Sweden for the Derby match. Wanted to get 5 tickets together in the North Stand so booked this week to avoid the rush.

What about Leeds v Charlton? Sometimes we just forget ... they are the mighty Leeds United.

Sky won't want to risk missing someone winning promotion that day. They'll be showing all the main protagonists I suspect. Wednesday vs Cardiff would be a good pick but I'd be stunned if Brighton vs Derby isn't moved.

I wonder if the seaside will see a return of a Bank Holiday Monday game?

Still any fixture move, which the club is contractually obliged to do, will almost certainly lead to people blaming Barber and the wannae Ultras banging on about modern football being rubbish.

Plus we need to consider possible relegation cliffhangers may be attractive to sky too, as well as promotion ones. The Addicks may just need points from this game to stay in the Championship.

I sincerely hope not, I am going on holiday on the Sunday, so can make the game if its playes on a Friday night or Saturday, but not if it's recheduled to Monday, as I'll be sunning myself in Kefalonia by then.

Am sure there will be a dodgy Irish bar if needed.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Best try and sell that ticket...

The football ticket or the air ticket? If promotion is still very much in the balance come the day of the game, I might be tempted to sell thae latter lol.

 

[Keith Patel]

Announcement at 4pm.

 

[JonnyComeEarly]

What are the chances of Charlton being moved to? that would be absolute s**thouse

Ditto, but not the Kefalonia bit. We're off narrowboating around the Cheshire ring.

Already worrying about the fact that agreeing to go then means I can't go to Boro, so I'll be really distraught if I miss this one, too.

That would be less annoying than the Forest move. At least for Charlton no travel needs to be booked.
