I know this is an article from 2009, but never really grasped how much of a job the fixtures were.

    too many midweek away games. Leeds, Pboro, Cardiff, Derby, Leicester. Apart from that they look okay.

    I am delighted we have a home game on Boxing Day. Let's hope Mr D'urso isn't appointed to ref it this year !!
  • Elthamaddick Member
    just checked through them and all the weekends I'm busy / away etc are rubbish long away trips, away first game, home last game and home boxing day....what could be better
  • superjonniejackson Member

    Potentially missing 3 home games in 6 days as I am on holiday from the 23rd Sept - 7th Oct. Just glad I'm not missing the Palace match!

    Interesting article, And I thought it was near enough a completely random process

    At Goodwood for Palace away, can only make Brighton away if they switch it to the Tuesday, Cardiff being midweek and Forest away on sister's wedding day.

    At Goodwood for Palace at home, can only make Brighton away if they switch it to the Tuesday, Cardiff being midweek and Forest away on sister's wedding day.

    I think Brighton away is on Easter Monday mate ?? I may be wrong.

    Can't believe palace @ home I will be taking the missus to Disneyland Paris and Millsmall @ home will be in Thailand!! Unbelievable how thats worked out like that as that's the only 2 trips planned for the next year or so...

    According to the BBC it is 3.00. But to be honest, I doubt anyone has even thought about times yet - so most of what you see will be guesswork I would imagine.

    Lots will be tweaked once Sky get hold of it, anyway...

    Yep. 7.45 on the Official site though.
  • roseandcrownroseandcrown Member

    Isn't it the traditional bank holiday match which always kicks off at 3:00pm?
    If so why do Brighton want to move it ? and do we have any say in the matter?

    Wouldn't worry about that, it's all Leeds, Leeds and more Leeds generally. Now that West Ham are promoted expect Leeds on every week.

    Home game on boxing day: great as I will be in London, but how the *&^% do I get there with no transport of my own? Do buses run?
  • iaitch Member
    Buses run on Boxing Day, thats what I'll be using.

    I think the tube will be running. Jubilee to North Greenwich and then a bus/cab from there.

    No QPR or West Ham.

    None whatsoever. The only weekend I can't do is the 8th September for a friend's wedding. Just happens to be that we don't have a game on that weekend!

    Don't forget the Massives.

    Even Leeds surely have to play second fiddle to such a Massive club.....?
  • cafctomcafctom Member
    Will never be as bad as when Newcastle were in the Championship though. I'm sure they must have had about 15-20 games on.
  • MiserableoldgitMiserableoldgit Member
    Yep: My birthday match: Middlesboro Away.
  • shine166shine166 Member
