I did say "personally". But, as was pointed out earlier, if you're coming by rail, there's little difference between a 3.00 and a 5.30 KO. I happen to prefer a 5.30 one
Personally, I think it's a great kick-off time. Nice Boxing Day lie-in; a pre-lunch walk; a late lunch of leftovers and pickles before it's time to set off for a pre-match pint. Then, back in time for the evening TV. Sounds a great day to me ... a 3.00 ko would have been more of a rush.
But...
I love Boxing Day fixtures - it's my favourite game of the season. I love getting out in the fresh air after a day of stuffing myself. I've only missed a couple of home BD games in nearly 50 years of going to the Albion. And, if I can get to them, I get to any away ones too.
New Year's Day ones...
