    Me either mate, we into doing favours or something for Rotherham?, Friday traffic is s**t, do we actually consider our fans even some of the time?

    I'm guessing neither club have a say in the ko time due to Sky. We ko at 7:15 pm. Watford at 8pm. Pathetic really.

    I can't see how it's doing Rotherham any favours - surely 7:15 is going to more awkward for their fans than ours

    On average, you must be right. However, a good percentage of our fans live a lot further away than Rotherham, and I am sure they have fans who also live a good distance away from either Barnsley or Rotherham.

    Friday is actually the best day on the road now, it was always horrible pre pandemic but ever since people work from home Fridays now so the traffic is way lighter.

    I guess the fault doesn't lie with Sky. Its the clubs that agreed the deal.

    I really think this is going to have a big impact on season ticket sales next season.

    Yeah course it is only took me 3.15 minutes yesterday to get from Derby to Leeds left Derby at 4pm.
    I'm not sure what time you finish work but try either the M1, A1 both of which have massive 50mph Zones on or the M62 around 5-5.30pm.

    A 7.15pm kick off has absolutely no logic Vs the extra half hour 7.45pm

    15:30 on a Friday but I finish at home and live in the town so kick off time immaterial whether it’s 19:15, 12:30 Sat or 19:46 Sat it just alters the time for a pre-match pint.
