    It quotes:

    "However, in light of the fixture now taking place in a Tier 3 lockdown area and to mitigate the risk on an away club spending additional time in this location, the EFL have approved of the 7pm kick-off, given the current circumstances."


    How does kicking off earlier prevent additional time in a Tier 3 area? Is the match over quicker if we kick off at 7pm lol :)

    How the hell does 45 minutes either way make any difference.

    Prefer that time tbh. When you can only watch on tv. No pre match pub drink so get on with it.

    Does that mean its now not on the red button or what - doesnt affect me directly as I dont have it but my Dad does and its better for him to watch on Sky on his big tv screen than faff around with his laptop and codes etc

    So now not on the Red button. That's a joke, and a way to make more money for ifollow for none season ticket holders. The reason is laughable. Thinking of the fans again NOT

    Good that we've made a deal with covid that if we kick off less than an hour earlier they are less likely to infect anyone at Oakwell.

    Have we informed QPR we have brought the kick off time forward again? I feel one of Baldricks cunning plans coming on....

    I’m guessing we were going to stop overnight but will now travel straight back.

    It's at home so would've been QPR stopping over.

    Can't see how 45 minutes makes that much difference though. If they said kick off at 6pm I could understand

    Sky Sports 'Live Football Games' page now shows the QPR game kicking off at the revised time of 7.00 pm but still suggests that the game is on the red button from 19:40. So I'm wondering if the coverage will kick in with the other 7:45 games from 7:40 pm.
