Taxis don't run on Boxing Day...

[Fox92]

If Liverpool is 8pm it'd be interesting/good to see their fans fvck it off. Spirit of Shankley are one of the better supporters groups. I remember when they boycotted Hull the other season about ticket prices. But then again you'll have those "shit support" pictures circulating social media from people sat in their bedrooms.

Why is everyone so miserable. 8pm on boxing day is incredible, spend the morning with the fam, them 2pm onwards of football and drunken festive antics. Whats better.

Well the last time I tried to find a drink, something to eat or a even a taxi for a boxing day game it was a joke. Most bars / pubs didn't even bother opening, the few taxi's there were we charging double time. 

[ScouseFox]

tbf even if the 4000 or so who usually go boycotted, they'd have 10k more waiting for those tickets.

 

the only reason it worked (a little bit) when they had empty seats at hull was because or the priority ones bought child tickets for a fiver or whatever and then didn't actually go. don't think you can do that anymore. 

[ScouseFox]

is leicester the only place in the world that doesn't think boxing day is a real day? probably the busiest and most enjoyable day and night of the year in most other cities. 

[Leicester_Loyal]

Pointless even moaning about it, it'll never change, it'll only get worse.

I feel you buddy, but shouldn’t your question be what time is the Liverpool game?

Still waiting on the BBC to release the Christmas schedule. 

Shouldve been sorted last week. 🙄

Should be early next week at the latest. 

 

[StanSP]

My hunch is that the following games are moved:

 

4 Dec - Watford moved from day before as expected 

 

7 Dec - Villa to 5.30pm

 

21 Dec - Man City to 12.30pm

 

26 Dec - Liverpool to 8pm (already known) 

 

29 Dec - West Ham moved from 28th to be 2pm on Sunday 29th

 

All other games stay the same.

Why not just knock boxing day off and play the weekends if transports the issue?

 

Oh cos its tradition.

 

Lets play all the games boxing day its tradition.

 

Oh we cant get there.

The reason we ended up on boxing day was because we dropped tradition, used to play Christmas day before people realised it was better to glutton yourself into a coma.

Its deffo a thing. Not sure what year from. But leicester station was all locked up when we played spurs the other year 2104. 

 

We got a taxi to parcel yard and the place was all locked up and parcel yard closed. Town was dead. 

Get yourself up high street, spoons is always rammed on boxing day some guy was naked in there by midday before the Man City game last year.

Biblical, I'm sure you'll be fine getting in so long as a census isn't declared and the masses have to flock back to their place of birth.

Earlier kick off’s allow people to drive themselves or call in favours from friends/family. 

 

I personally will walk to the game cos I’m near enough but there’s plenty of fans from the County who have a difficult decision to make. My idea of fun isn’t being sober driving down an A road at 10.30pm on Boxing Day night.

It’s dead. I’ve struggled to find many pubs open at 12 in Leicester on Boxing Day

Have they actually sorted it all out yet? Why the need to keep pushing it back by an hour?

I’ll walk as my parents live a couple of miles from King Power but I have plenty of friends who live across the county who either spend their day not joining in the festivities or spend a fortune 

[CosbehFox]

I’d love to be in one of these meetings. 

 

Theres no real excuse why August and September are set a couple of weeks after fixture announcement. Then the rest until February post European group draws
