    It might have been mentioned on here in previous threads but I only really realised yesterday........

    I can't recall an identical time and day that its happened before?!? Midweek yes of course.......

    Has a reason (other than Sky ruling the world) or explanation been given. Until yesterday me n r lass were doing a few bits of jobs this morning and settling darn for 3 o'clock.

    It seems a bit baffling. Has there been anymore during or before lockdown?

    They were trialled a few seasons ago in the Premier League, but I don’t think it stuck. Since football started back after the first lockdown, there’s been a late Saturday kick off on most weekends.

    I can understand why some people don’t like it, but I don’t mind. The more football on at the weekend the better. It’s not like there’s much else to be doing at the minute, or anything else worthwhile on TV.

    I’m opting out. I like a relaxed Saturday evening with my wife, a nice bottle of red and a delicious meal. I will keep checking the score though ;)

    Never realised that. Cheers for the info. Not had Sky now for a few years and either having a few pints after home game or sometimes travelling back from wherever.
