Pretty shit on the whole as expected although Man City half 5 is at least a slight bit of solace. Why in gods name they've made Burnley away Sunday 2pm I've literally no idea.

This’ll be controversial but I’m chuffed to be honest. I can’t get to matches all that often because I can rarely afford it and I’m always working (though I appreciate the ire of others); these changes make the games a bit more accessible for me to illegally stream them or go to my local who illegally stream them while giving me alcohol. 
 

Also, the more TV games we have the more money the club makes - £10m per game if I recall correctly. More money, more exposure is good for us. 

£10m a game?! :blink: Where an earth did you hear that?

 

We get paid a fixed amount from domestic and international rights. That's about £80m with sponsors. Then you have another guaranteed £12 or so regardless of how many games you play but if you play above 10 games you get paid £1.2m a game. Of course that means the big boys can end up earning a quite a bit more but not massives in the scheme of £100m. It's also why they want more of the international money

 

That's the thing about the TV money; it's reasonably fair. £10m a game would be ridiculous.

It’s the 8.15pm ko’s I’m not keen on. We haven’t got one (yet), but that’s going to mean me getting home by 11pm, and that’s for a home game.

Newcastle away on NYD on the box at 3pm. Love that. Apart from the Boxing Day move they’re not too bad.

The Boxing Day kick off is a joke but I’m not going to whine about it because I know I’ll still be going.

That’s what I said. £1.2m.

Drinking isn't obligatory. I sometimes wonder if it actually is mandatory to drink heavily in our culture, however. 

Have you tried watching us sober? That mid 2000s was terrible. The drink helped mask the pain.

I'm driving to the Boxing Day game so if anyone needs a lift from Wigston and/or home again pm me

Now this is more like the Christmas spirit.

 

Shame I'm the other side of the county.

Just gonna walk from Bedford then if it's that easy!

 

Google says it's 18 hours. Gonna set off at 2am so I get there just in time. Take no breaks. Also means I probably won't be able to enjoy my birthday a day before as much as I'll need to be nice and fresh for the early start and long walk ahead. 

 

Hope I don't get run over or too cold and wet on this long and arduous journey ahead. 

 

Thanks for the suggestion @Donk! Hadn't really considered it before! Can't wait for the long walk back :)

See you at the game! Reckon you could get me a coffee to help warm me up? You may need to hold it for me as my fingers may be a little cold to the touch. 

Could give you a lift if it's just you as there's 3 of us. 

Man City in one of Bedfords quality establishments could be a laugh on the sunday🍺😁

BT Sport investigating ways to have Glenn Hoddle simultaneously appearing on every game, perhaps by pre-recording some stock phrases such as "Haaaary Kaaaaane", "This sides situation reminds me of Spurs at the moment....", "VAR may show him as catagorically being off but in the spirit of the game he wasn't", "This game's gone quiet, let's discuss Spurs for no reason" etc much like a FIFA / PES scenario.

Frankly a disgrace that Amazon have been allowed anywhere near any sporting event. Really hope people boycott them and they never want to get involved again.

Premier league is so rich yet they had to offer this package twice as far as I recall. Just imagine the goodwill they could have got if they had given the rights to boxing day fixtures to terrestrial TV so millions could have watched the matches without having to pay even more and without having to pay even more money to Amazon.

8pm kick offf on Boxing Day is just a disgrace.

Not quite what I was getting at - stay on the Saturday as well as the Friday if you were already going on the Friday? Then go the game on Sunday and come home Sunday afternoon.
