Not for BT Sport last time I looked but happy to be proved wrong with link.

if you are with EE or BT you can often get the mobile app for free....

Chelsea's Cup semi final is the Saturday game.

So I expect our PL game with them will likely be Tuesday 19th.

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

Haha I did think of these too but my 9 yr old likes to watch them with me. I did let her watch the Leicester game in full the other night #GoodParenting

When my lads were 9 they use to go to bed at 3.30 when home from school, I'd then wake them at 6 and we'd go to The Amex, and they doze in the car on the return. #badparent

Hardly fair to be honest, Chelsea's success in progressing in a cup is that we get less time to recuperate before a more important game v Sheffield.

cant we stick to the same time and chelsea field the kids like Liverpool did in one of the cups.

Chelsea have 7 fixtures in April (Albion 4)

v Albion is Chelsea's 6th game while only the 3rd for our lads.
Plus the game is between FA Cup semi final against City and West Ham away.


Not that I'm expecting anything from the game, unlike Sunday, but that goes a little way towards evening up the obvious imbalance between squads.

But, But....

I didn't give you the bad news.

They start the month with WBA, Porto & palace, at least 2 training ground matches.

Why are all our games evening KO's?
Are the viewing figures higher if we are on in the evening or no one cares about us so put us out of the way?

12 out of our 29 games so far this season have had kick offs at 7.30pm or later.

This is becoming a joke now. 12.30pm or 8pm, both shite KO times. Any chance of the club raising this? I seem to remember a couple of years or so ago something similar happening with an unusual number of our home games moved from 3pm to stupid times and I think Barber did complain.

Shite ko times if traveling to games. Irrelevant really if only traveling to the living room. They can make every game this season kick off at midnight as far as I’m concerned.

I agree with the above. The club should complain. Do the players have an opinion. If we play away does it mean unnecessary hotel costs ?
Has this been raised at a fans forum. In my family situation I am unable to follow the game live. I only hope next season when fans are back to full capacity and tv only does selected matches, that things go back to normal.

I like evening games, bite to eat and sit down with some liquid refreshment to watch the match which is surely better than the dross served up on the other channels or endlessly scrolling through the Netflix menu.
12.30 too early.
Sky over BT any day. Robbie Savage and Steve MacManaman are intensely irritating.

Many have taken this as an opportunity to indoctrinate ... err I mean introduce their youngsters to the joys of watching the Albion.

I find the late kick off times annoying .... but it's a first world problem I suppose

Hate late KO games, especially on a Saturday. Not one game at a civilised hour in April.

To summarise.

Sunday 4th Man U away 19:30 BT1
Monday 12th Everton home 20:15 WTF 20:15 !!!!! Sky
Tuesday 20th Chelsea away 20:00 Sky
Saturday 24th Sheff Utd away 20:00 Sky

it still means that less than half of our games have been 7.30pm or later. And obviously its 20/21 innit.
This won't ever happen again (we hope) . And whats a civilised hour ? For many - its very convenient - post evening meal, kids in bed, the end of working day/DIY/shopping/gardening/Day off day. For now - its hardly getting in the way of doing anything else. Watching Line of Duty aside.

For someone with a young family I couldn’t be happier with the evening kick offs whilst games are behind closed doors on these very points.

You haven’t got young kids then?
