[Albion] TV fixtures- April

[chimneys]

Due to be announced today but invariably late.

Am guessing Spurs away tricky to call as FA Cup semi final weekend.

My one and only game this year is set to be Southampton over my birthday weekend.

Would love for that to remain a Saturday 3pm.

Apparently they are waiting until after the 5th round of the cup to announce the second half of April fixtures

Thanks for that and makes sense.

So hopefully they will still announce whether Norwich and Arsenal changing this week.

Why are they so crap with sticking to their own timelines though. They’re always late. It’s very frustrating.

It's odd, they know the key dates during the season well in advance. It cannot be that difficult to generate a sensible plan for fixtures to be announced and then stick to it

Especially so when reliant on booking trains and accommodation.

deadline of yesterday missed once again - when is someone going to sort this out ?

Was it a deadline ?

The announcement date on the EPL website is pretty clear.

We’re Brighton, so cue all fixtures to be with a kickoff time of 8.00/8.15 pm preferably on a bank holiday or a Saturday evening. Also, make sure that all forms of public transport stop before the end of the match. Tie it in with major rail engineering works and, finally, factor in a humongous storm like Eunice to coincide with all arrangements.

Just a minor inconvenience for us fans - again!

This is always a TV game. South Coast derby innit?!

True but there’s a lot of factors to take into consideration when choosing the most inconvenient time to stage the game. It can’t be easy.

Oh heck, you're right!

Ok. Well. Saturday 5.30pm then please.

TV companies - why is Brighton Palace a rivalry?
TV companies - let’s sell Brighton Southampton as a rivalry!

The away game wasn't. 3pm on a Saturday.

Arsenal Vs Man Utd
Chelsea Vs West Ham
Liverpool Vs Everton
Leicester Vs Villa
Norwich Vs Newcastle

All far more likely to be picked than us at home to Southampton.

Sometimes. But the away game earlier this season was a Saturday 3pm kick off /not picked - and this looks like a routine mid table encounter so unlikely to be picked would be my guess.

Arsenal Brighton (currently 3pm on the 11th) is probably the one in April i would bet on as a TV pick.
