JCWfox Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 Leicester's City's home npower Championship fixture against Bristol City will now take place at the Walkers Stadium on Friday February 18th, with a 7.45pm kick-off. The game was due to be played on Saturday February 19th but has been rearranged as Leicester Tigers are also playing at home that afternoon. A Friday evening match has been chosen ahead of playing the fixture on Sunday as the Foxes are due to travel to Cardiff City for another npower Championship clash the following Tuesday (February 22nd). Tickets already purchased by supporters will remain valid for the rearranged game.

TuptonFox Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 stupid for us people who work & still study that don't live in Leicester.
VinceNoir Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 **** hell, i breathed i sigh of relief when i read it was friday. Had just ordered my flight to come and see City for the first time in 7 years! Luckily I'm set to arrive in Leicester at 2.45pm on the friday! Phew.
kimmy619 Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 It's quite late to change it especially as I had made plans I'm not missing the footy though so I will have to miss out. Oh well.

leicesterseddon Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 Now that this season it's against the safety certificate for us and tigers to play on the same day, why didn't the Football League just take this into account when compiling the fixtures for this season? They already do it bearing in mind, e.g. Bristol City and Bristol Rovers can't play on the same day - Southend ask not to play on the same day as West Ham, etc. Surely from now on the league should just them as if they were another football team if we can't play on the same afternoons.

The pairings system is pretty convoluted and difficult to work at the moment without throwing rugby clubs in there. They don't for watford, reading or qpr - all of whom groundshare with a rugby club so why should they do it for us and tigers when we don't even share the ground.
nickelbyfox Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 Well it will give the team an extra days rest before the Tuesday game which must be good.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 Suits me given that I work all bastard Saturday.
Christoph Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 Fan Club or Mosh afterwards? Decisions, decisions. Both as bad and smelly as each other
ousefox Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 Oh FUCK OFF. Already booked train tickets, why can they not announce these things earlier for ****s sake.
demon_dog Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 The bar stewards, not happy about this. Footy should be played at 3pm on a Saturday.
iBleedLeicesterColours Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 Rugby is for the fat kids at school that couldn't play football. Stolen from a facebook group title.
Sparky Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 If the Tigers manage to beat Leinster in the Heineken cup1/4 finals the they will be having the Walkers some time in April for the semi against either Toulouse or Biarritz, maybe another fixture to be moved ?
walkerlcfc91 Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 Going to knock a couple of thousand off the attendance then, lovely!
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 Pathetic, absolutely pathetic, football is for Saturday afternoons
Wymsey Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 Traffic will be terrible considering the 'friday rush' from work. The Tiger's should move theirs on the Friday due to them being in a location where there's various routes to get to and from the Stadium = meaning less pileups of traffic.
Head Honcho Posted 24 January 2011 Posted 24 January 2011 This is the reason I haven't booked my train tickets for QPR on March 5th.
