The *******s! They care not a jot for the fans - Sat 3pm is the best time to watch a match by a long long way. Mon night will be a misery for me travelwise.
I wish TV, the Premier League and all their overblown cash would bugger off and bother someone else. I thought in 1991 that the Premier League would ruin football for all but the oligarchy at the very top and I stand by that. It's dull dull dull! OK so I'm ranting now ... :angry:

I'm delighted cos it means I can get there... even if we won't be home til 1am. I feel for those who are horribly inconvenienced by this but, selfishly, I'm made up.

Maths is not really my thing, but that would mean an attendance of 6,400,000,000,000 if I've worked that out correctly. Not sure that's going to happen even at £15 a head.

If that happens the queues for the trains will be a real bugger !

If it had been weekend I would have taken 2 kids plus my mate would have taken 2 of his. Going to watch it on tv now. Pricing is still fine & I know it's half term but Monday is my regular planning day at work and getting there on time with 2 kids will be impossible. Plus my eldest is still only 7 and will basically be a complete pain the next day if tired. Shame, the club got the pricing right but why bother when I can watch at home with a beer and zero stress & put the boy to bed at half time?

Monday night football is a pile of w**k

2,000 off the attendance means a loss of 40k

Peanuts compared to £247,000 in TV money

Personally I think TV will wipe off a lot more than 2,000 off the gate, even though it's half term.

I agree, especially as the club are only operating one Park and Ride and with a normal scheduled evening bus service, it will make it very difficult for a lot of fans to go to the game.

Zero stress, not for a cup game :)

Sorry, know what you really mean.

night games often create a better atmosphere
Hull won't bring more than 5-600 now
