[Albion] Home game v Liverpool date change

[Knocky's Nose]

8pm.....

W*nkers.

 

[Justice]

They aren't too happy either. Party weekend in Brighton buggered!

I quite like the fxxk Sky chant idea.

 

[Justice]

Funny I use to work in London, never had to queue for an hour to get on the tube

Exactly they turn up every three minutes comparing with London services is silly.

The comment was about crowd safety due to overcrowding

 

[Is it PotG?]

I was going to ask if there could be a protest. Maybe fans take the seats after 7min or something?

What?

And miss our only shot on target?

Not for me Clive.

I probably live as far away if not further than most - it’s a 8 hour return trip on a weekday. On weekends it’s usually 12 hours return because of engineering, staffing shortages, bus replacements, no direct trains and on Sundays, reduced services etc.

When you speak for “us” living outside Brighton, please bear in mind you are not speaking for all of “us”. We are not an homogeneous group!

He posted “quite a lot of us” TBF

 

[Taybha]

I won't go now,I'll watch it on Sky!

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Can we chant f@*$ Sky all game long? We used to sing We want Falmer. Don't remember Sky being there in the dark days.

'f@*$ Sky TV' actually scans quite nicely to the tune of 'f@*$ VAR'

Take my hat off to you. How many on here would go with a journey like that. I leave my house at 2.25 for a 3pm kickoff and get in my seat approx 2.50. However I still hate late weekday kickoff !!!

 

[Zeberdi]

I think you've got the wrong end of the country. I mean Albion fans who live outside of Brighton, quite a lot of us travel over an hour for home games.
Saturday 3pm kick offs are much better for us, opposed to Monday at 8pm.

TBF he was referring to those of ”us” who ‘travel over an hour for home games’ - that includes myself.

It’s not a big deal, just pointing out that public transport is shlte on a Sunday so for myself at least, Saturday or weekday matches are much better.

(I should probably add that I don’t have kids and manage my own work hours so appreciate many are not in such an enviable position that they are not so impacted by this - and agree that for a last home game of the season, it‘s pretty depressing for it to fizzle out on a Monday night!)

Only @Arkwright can say what he really meant then, sounds like one of us misunderstood the meaning of “quite a lot of us”

Aside from inconvenience for many I think you've nailed it with " fizzle ". Sunny Sunday afternoon clapping the players off much nicer.

Wouldn't put it past Sky to insist on the presentation being made in real time

At HT

 

[Official Old Man]

Man City now play on Saturday in the cup final, meaning Sky now have a free slot on Sunday at 7pm.

Do fixtures ever get moved twice?

 

[mile oak]

do we have to give them a guard of honour now? How will our fans greet the scousers?

By singing Ale Mac's name?

There are no 7pm games today or next Sunday either?

That I wouldn’t expect a 7pm game to be played on Sunday 18t May or the BHA v Liverbirds game being moved again to that time slot as I think someone queried.
