Fixture change: Man city away

What a load of shite, now I can't go.

Ridiculous

Cue the beginning for shift swaps at work ?. Poor forward planning on the part of the premier league and sky. Just put the CL sides all playing on a Saturday to begin with, and Europa sides on the Sunday, problem solved! Can still have the pick of the games to put on the box anyway. A joke

These fixture changes are beyond ridiculous. Until the government intervene the broadcaster's will continue to take the mickey. I appreciate that on rare occasions fixtures have to move but why the need to play at 8pm on a Bank Holiday when it'd make sense to play it at some point during the day given restricted operating hours for public services, and the fact that I'm sure it'd generally be more convenient for those attending?!?

To make matters worse Spurs are playing Saturday 19:45! Why they couldn’t play early Sunday, what difference it would have made. Would’ve been better to move Cardiff Palace or Huddersfield Man United to the Monday night from a selfish point of view

Until fans start to actually stick up for themselves, the government will feel no compulsion to take any action.

Yeah I'll not bother now. It's killed the last game of the season and a great away day, shame.

 

If they want to move a game then fine but to select Tottenham and Manchester City on the same weekend when one of them was set to play on the Tuesday was ridiculous, even if Sky themselves thought Spurs wouldn't win at Manchester City to get through. If they wanted to put Spurs and Manchester City on tv for the weekend then choose Friday and Saturday and nothing later. I don't think that would have upset people because as much because we (and Spurs fans going to Bournemouth) could have planned hotels, travel tickets etc knowing the games weren't getting moved again.

It was suggested should the Premier league cater for the European teams but all they are worried about is the money and fans/clubs are thought of 2nd.

It pisses me off that both our fixture changes benefit me. I'm sorry for all the people who this affects adversely.
