Ok so if they move it to Saturday 8pm then I may not be able to go as I have commitments on a Saturday night so I either cancel them or go to the game.
Ok how many matches have there been on a Saturday 8pm in the last 28 years
Our home game against arsenal last season
And our home game to Tottenham 3/4 seasons ago
Quarter final against Manchester United
And that's just Wolves, I'm sure there's many others
None of them actually Christmas Eve though with all the associated transport difficulties that begin to appear later in the day.
We're talking about matches at 20:00 on a Saturday and the request to play the Chelsea game on 23rd
Oh … that’ll learn me to read the thread properly.
It will.
It will move back to the Saturday? Not sure about that.
100% not being moved
Think @Ginger Chimp was agreeing with me, that although some people will be ****ed off whatever happens, it'll sell out whenever it's played.
It will be full either way.
Sorry what? I would argue that people have more concrete commitments on Christmas Eve that may have been in place for months or even years rather than a Saturday night but if you don't understand or agree that's fair enough. Hope you enjoy the game.
No I don't think that's what folks are moaning about at all, its about rearranging a football match a late notice to a day in the calendar when a lot of people have other commitments, not to mention obvious travel difficulties on this day not only for away fans but for Wolves fans who travel a distance. Think you've completely missed the point tbh.
I would add 'Once again putting TV companies ahead of fans' to your admirable comments.
Also bear in mind the location of Molineux in the City centre, the fact that the match will be on Christmas Eve (lots of people out shopping), on a Sunday afternoon (most people off work plus even more people out shopping), then throw in the decision to stage a PL match with reduced public transport operating and the decision looks even more ludicrous. Has anyone else tried to drive to Asda between 4pm and 5pm on a normal Friday evening (only time we can fit shopping in)? I can only imagine the carnage this will create on Christmas Eve.
I mean, I'm not the most organised for Christmas generally, and sometimes I get stuff and then panic that maybe I need one more pack of sausages, but even I might be good to go by 3pm (1 hour before they close) on Christmas Eve.
This is a very sensible solution but there’s not a chance Vinny Turpin will go for it.

I don't know why they just don't go 100%. I know some people will say they have costs, but don't forget they refund 80% of 1/19th of the ST cost and then sell at a much higher price anyway, so they've still got a good mark up. On the plus side hopefully it sells OK to people who may be working on the Saturday and can make Christmas Eve. So then resale actually happens. They need to not wait for the corner to sell though.
Believe that's true , also u don't get any money if Yr seat doesn't sell
Look on the bright side. Chelsea fans have to travel a 270 mile round trip on Christmas eve. Couldn't happen to a nicer set of fans.
Plenty of wolves fans live in london
Doesn't say that policy has changed just the refund amount .Or maybe I am missing something
So would l if l was going which l absolutely am not! No bright side! Oh, and Chelsea have offered them free travel.
Fair play to any Wolves fans that make the effort to travel.
Same here..not great 2 months after the game was played
