Don't see what all the fuss is about, if you are not going to the game and have no subscription for ESPN then there is a last resort to watch it for free, as there will be a fair few PC streams available on the night.
Walsall is very likely to be moved to the Sunday. The Young Addicks Christmas Party will then have to be rearranged.
Regarding the TV revenue, we will get about a fiver net for every adult spectator at Luton, so the coverage would have to deter 7,200 adults - or, say, 10,000 adults and concessions - from attending before CAFC would be worse off. In practice, I doubt if there will be many empty seats in home areas, given that it's such a small ground in the first place.

The Walsall attendance is also likely to be adversely affected although probably not to the extent of Airman's figures in that the 8k or so season ticket holders will count even if not there. The "walk-up" figures probably won't be great given that it is a Sunday and (no disrespect) Walsall is not the most attractive opposition.
If memory serves me right Walsall only brought 300 or so on a Saturday last year so are unlikely to bring anymore and probably less on a Sunday.
I reckon the attendance could be less than 10k for this one. Certainly the "real" attendance anyway.
Not sure why Charlton agreed to this TV switch to Thursday. You'll lose your away support and you are crammed for matches. In contrast we only have Welling in the FA trophy and then nothing for a week. Very good deal for Luton I'd say.
With a bit of 'luck' Welling will be out of business and you'll be laughing. Moneywise it will not make a difference that CAFC will lose their away support, but it would definitely help to spur on the team in which will be a very difficult game. The times I've been to Kenilworth Rd the atmosphere has been electric.
Hopefully they will be able to switch the Walsall game. A game against Spurs, promotion and a trip to Wembley to play for in 6 days time will be too much...

Agreed, of course league should be the focus but I, for one, am extremely excited by the prospect of games at Wembley and White Hart Lane. Move Walsall game to 2011.
With the JPT Brentford match the Tuesday after it only makes sense to move Walsall match to January/February 2011. I presume Walsall will have a say in this though and If I was them, I'd insist on the Saturday! 3 games in 6 days is too much though so common sense should prevail.

welcome to my world
What pubs in the city show ESPN then?
"I've got a surprise for you, love..."
I'm sure they'll get more than 36 quid .......!
Everyone knows we must play our EUFA Europa League games on a Thursday.

Guess the league game is vital so pleased the players may have the extra 24 hours.
Its like being in the prem all over again !

I certainly hope not!
