1 pm boxing day!!! ffs no time in pub and the same for new years day! no time for hair of the dog!

Apart from that fine

 

[BrettieAngell]

Feel sorry for the Fleetwood fans.

And yeah 1pm boxing day sucks.

 

[Rattus Norvegicus]

Looking forward to the away game at Bradford - after this year's display, things can only get better ............

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Could have done with 1pm Boxing day this year and we'd have had enough daylight hours to play the 2nd half

Actually a bit disappointed to have only two Friday evening games at home all season, love the atmosphere at the Hall under the lights on a Friday night, especially now we've got the North Bank back....

Distinct lack of Friday night games (other than Bristol Rovers) - is this the final list of changes?

Personally speaking i am disappointed we dont have more Friday night games.

 

[Napster]

There's not enough Wednesday games for my liking.

 

[Fish]

Want more Friday night games - Saturdays not good for me, plus the atmosphere is generally better.

I think minimising pre-match drinking time is precisely the reason why bank holiday games get moved to 1pm.

 

[Up the Shrimpers]

Maybe less clubs wanted to play us on a Friday night due to there being more midweek League matches next season?

 

[RobM]

BBC Essex report Chesterfield on a Friday night now too.

 

[Bolton Shrimper]

You could try starting your drinking earlier or like me never really stop !

 

[Gremlin]

BBC Essex report Chesterfield on a Friday night now too.

That's on the list already.

 

[Thorpe Groyney]

It's worth pointing out that, at the behest of the Met Police, all Boxing Day games in and around London kick off no later than 1pm. It's been that way for a number of years.

Shame Hampshire police didn't apply the same request then!!!

Obviously too much time spent trying to organise the tour and not enough time negotiating with the other clubs !

 

[Bratislava Blue]

Not happy about the Chesterfield change although with it being originally on the last Saturday before Christmas it makes sense.... I'm flying home for Christmas on the Friday night and booked some cheap flights hoping to get at least 1 game in over the festive period.
One plus point is though the Boxing Day fixture has been moved to 1pm...... I can go to the game en route to the airport.

A new ground for me too...:happy:
