[Harry Dowd scored]

Big weekend derby & all that, hope Maresco gets the vibe right. Observers will note the 20.00 KO rime for the Arsenal game, this is to give them extra “minutes “ rest after playing in midweek, straight out of the Pep playbook counting “minutes” fucking ridiculous.

Villa v Forest 15.00

Bournemouth v Brentford 15.00

Chelsea v Hull 15.00

Palace v Ipswich 15.00

Dippers v Fulham 15.00

Spurs v Everton 17.30 Sky

It IS ridiculous. You'd have thought they'd be more tired by 8 o'clock at night, I know I would! And to hell with their own fans, having to travel back from Sunderland at 10 o'clock on a Saturday night

A fucking piss take having fans travel at that time. Rules out trains for a method of travel unless you want to overnight. And who wants to stay in Sunderland? A dump

Alice perhaps ?

It's up to the fans not to be fucked about by saying fuck you and not turning up, if fans don't put pressure on TV companies and the PL then they can't complain because well....they aren't complaining.

I go into a shop and a know a tin of coke is £2 and I have to pay by card, I choose not to go in and find another shop that sells coke for a quid and I can pay cash.

[Nick]

People will still go and even if not one fan goes they dont care cos its £ but i agree with the principle and organised no shows. Work's in Germany etc

[zuricity]

Some forget very quickly. City have had these late night tricks pulled loads of times .most recently a sunday semi final, late afternoon at wembley when two london teams played in the other semi on a saturday. Tough luck for the Arse , it still gives them extra " minutes" . I hope is rains all day in Sunderland as well.

The away fan is not considered at all. I read on Thursday when the Xmas and NY fixtures were released that this was early after a request from the football supporters associatiion. We're at Newcastle at 2000 boxing day again which has been a regular trip over Xmas these past years. That is shite but we will still sell out. Agree that the broadcasters won't want empty stadiums so it's upto the fans to vote with their feet but it won't happen..

We might have two days more rest in theory, but we had to travel to and from Portugal, and travel can take its toll, the scum had a home game against easy opponents, so I don’t see what the fuss is all about. Get over it cunts. !

It's just an easy get out of jail free card. We win, we had extra rest. If not, look how good they are without the rest.
I'll save my rants for the match thread, paid over the odds for a ticket so be out early in monton carlo tomorrow..

Are people re selling the derby more and more ?

Looked tourist and silent last year.

A lad I met at monaco away is travelling from Norway for it he has a ticket through his supporters club. I keep saying I need to join timbuktu branch

Our local branch in Rammy usually get 1 or 2 away tickets when requested and there's a lot of members to take turns getting ticket so usually get one away game a season through there.

It is handy for the domestic finals though, tend to always get as many as people ask for (loads of people are season ticket holders anyway so don't need to use the branch for final tickets).

Apparently the OSC was able to get Coldplay tickets last year so I'm actually more hopeful of Oasis tickets than match tickets through our branch at the moment!

We had a bloke in front of us last season filiming it on his phone. Fucked him off after a couple of minutes and he went somewhere else. Him filming it was probably how he managed to pay for his ticket but still, not at the swamp, not having that.
