I understand an announcement on the final round of televised games will be made later today.

The prime one, as discussed at length previously, is our home game v Derby, currently scheduled for 3pm on Saturday 30th April.

Pretty good I'd say - there are more attractive games that weekend

Birmingham v Middlesbrough
Burnley v QPR (clinching the title)
Sheff Wed v Cardiff (the last play-off spot)

Likely to be a Friday game, plus 12.30 and 5.30 Saturday games on TV, so it's a deffo mover for me.

Shitsticks. I've just booked flights and tickets for 5 of us coming over from Sweden for the Derby match. Wanted to get 5 tickets together in the North Stand so booked this week to avoid the rush.

Sky won't want to risk missing someone winning promotion that day. They'll be showing all the main protagonists I suspect. Wednesday vs Cardiff would be a good pick but I'd be stunned if Brighton vs Derby isn't moved.

What about Leeds v Charlton? Sometimes we just forget ... they are the mighty Leeds United.

Plus we need to consider possible relegation cliffhangers may be attractive to sky too, as well as promotion ones. The Addicks may just need points from this game to stay in the Championship.

I wonder if the seaside will see a return of a Bank Holiday Monday game? :whistle::wink:

Still any fixture move, which the club is contractually obliged to do, will almost certainly lead to people blaming Barber and the wannae Ultras banging on about modern football being rubbish.

I sincerely hope not, I am going on holiday on the Sunday, so can make the game if its playes on a Friday night or Saturday, but not if it's recheduled to Monday, as I'll be sunning myself in Kefalonia by then.

Ditto, but not the Kefalonia bit. We're off narrowboating around the Cheshire ring.

Already worrying about the fact that agreeing to go then means I can't go to Boro, so I'll be really distraught if I miss this one, too.
