[Football] TV fixtures for December

[Barry Izbak]

These were supposed to have been published on Monday.
Postponed until yesterday.
Now promised today.

Lots of Christmas plans on hold until we know what time Sky and BT would like us to be available to see Brentford and Chelsea.
Its like they don't give a sh1t about the fans.

 

[Iggle Piggle]

Christmas Eve is a Friday night this year. I suspect the delay is 2 poor teams being fed that shit sandwich with tinsel on top.

Merry Christmas.

Please please please leave Boxing Day at home to Brentford alone.

Current scheduled 26/12 fixture list

Aston Villa v Chelsea
Brighton & Hove Albion v Brentford
Burnley v Everton
Liverpool v Leeds United
Manchester City v Leicester City
Newcastle United v Manchester United
Norwich City v Arsenal
Tottenham Hotspur v Crystal Palace
West Ham United v Southampton
Wolverhampton Wanderers v Watford

Would think Liverpool v Leeds, Man City v Leicester and Toon v Utd would be definite tv picks, and possibly Spuds v them up t' road?

 

[Stumpy Tim]

For November's fixtures they announced them more than a week after they said they would.

 

[Dirty Dave]

They should be announcing January's fixtures at the same time

Has the date for the Spurs game been announced? (Saturday the 11th)

They play in Europe on the Thursday evening (9th)

 

[Bob!]

I'm hoping it does get moved.

Grandson's birthday on Boxing Day means I can't get a pass.

The clubs have now been told to expect this information Thursday or possibly Friday.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

They'll all be at bloody 5.30pm whatever day it is.

5.30pm Boxing Day will be ****ing CARNAGE if my usual routine is anything to go by

 

[Invicta]

I'm sick of 5.30 ko. Every (nearly) bloody game!

 

[pasty]

5.30pm Boxing Day will be ****ing CARNAGE if my usual routine is anything to go by

If it is 5:30 Boxing Day, and on the tellybox, there is a very high chance a conversation will take place along the lines of "**** it, shall we stay in the pub and watch it?"

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Probably waiting until the announcement of a new Sky Sports Newcastle channel.

 

[Dave the OAP]

5.30pm Boxing Day will be ****ing CARNAGE if my usual routine is anything to go by

If it is 17:30 on Boxing Day that may be ok for me as we are probably in London at my daughters for Christmas this year. But if we are not, it will be out for me as my mrs will want her parents round in the afternoon and I will be needed to take them back home!

Today then?

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Why are they so unable to stick to their own deadlines?

 

[BHAFCLive]

December's TV picks are currently the most complicated of the season due to; all 3 TV broadcasters being involved (the only month it includes Amazon), the highest number of rounds in a single month (7) and the public Holidays/policing limitations this time of year entails (which limit certain kick off times and unique slots).

That said, they've known all this since the summer and should really have reached a consensus by now.

But Amazon after doing two whole game weeks, they know what they're covering already

It's almost as if they don't give a shit about the fans.
