Wolves v City

[arctic rime]

I think this is now a 5.30 kick off?

 

[JohnB]

I was wondering this….

Wolves fixtures set to move for TV

Half of Wolves’ upcoming August and September Premier League fixtures have been rearranged after being selected for live broadcast.

www.wolves.co.uk

 

[WeAreTheWolvesII]

Surely won't be a half 5 kick-off as Tottenham vs Leicester on Sky at that time.

But yep, sounds like it will be moved. Maybe 7:45 or 8pm?

 

[WasStefan]

530 much better but why?

One will be late KO, assume ours. 7.45 be perfect

Wolves and Villa games moved for TV coverage in August and September

Wolves and Villa have both had four Premier League games each moved for television coverage during August and September.

Similar reference in E&S. Hoping still played on the Saturday. Tottenham vs Leicester is on at 5.30 on Sky so suspect not then. Could imagine a 7.30 kick-off. Won’t be on the Monday as International week and a full fixture list on the Sunday already.

Cos City in CL on Wednesday at 8pm.

 

[SuperGran]

Starting this season, a team won’t play at Saturday lunchtime if it’s had an away CL game on the preceding Wednesday evening.

So given they are at home then should be no change?

 

[Oh When the Wolves]

Sooner the big 6 **** off the better . Run the league

 

[arctic rime]

Maybe it stays at 12 30 as they are home not away on the Wednesday?

 

[Wolf316]

Maybe it stays at 12 30?

Can City have a moan and get it moved or does it automatically stay at 12.30 as they aren’t away on the Wednesday?

 

[Peszkywolf]

So it's 5.30? I've swapped a day off so I could make the early kick off and now they change it. Cheers.

 

[DPE]

I have a directors box box with Artic the sponsors so better not be.

 

[woop woop barmy army]

As long as it the Saturday and don’t get moved to the Sunday.

Premier League reveals schedule change for Champions League clubs

Champions League clubs who play on Wednesday nights could still be selected in BT Sport’s evening slot, however – a move which may appease managers but is unlikely to please travelling supporters

www.independent.co.uk

No mention of away games (ridiculously). Would it be unduly cynical to suggest BT might actually quite like a 7.45 Sat KO and just be using this as a convenient excuse?

Two Premier League fixtures altered due to Champions League group stages

Two of Manchester City's upcoming Premier League fixtures have been moved due to our involvement in the Champions League.

City say it is not moving.

 

[LythamWolf]

I can’t make the Saturday and so I’m probably alone in hoping it gets moved to the Sunday although it sounds unlikely.

 

[Rhoswolf]

Me too if late kick off no train home and yet another game missed!

 

[Rhoswolf]

Still 12:30 as far as I can see, anyone confirm, want to see Costa's debut?

 

[jrpb-3]

The Game is also being shown on BT Sport, so can't see them wanting it moved and messing up their schedule either

EDIT From the independent article looks like BT would want it changed to 7:45pm if it was moved

 

[Peszkywolf]

Think there's a lot of train strikes that Saturday? Anyone seen info about that?

 

[Wolowolf6]

Can’t confirm the KO time, but I heard that while the other 10 Wolves players take the field from the tunnel, Costa is going to be wheeled out to the centre circle wearing a Hannibal Lector mask.

 

[McSteen]

Yes, very limited service saturday.

My calender still has it down as a 12.30 ko

 

[Gromit]

Currently down for 12.30 BT Sport

What article is that.

 

[jrpb-3]

What article is that.

The one linked in first post about fixture changing

Post 16

 

[Wolf316]

Didn’t City confirm it wasn’t moving?

 

[Southdownswolf]

Bt Sport still have it as 12:30 kick off

 

[Brockmoorwolf]

I have an adult ticket going spare in the north bank upper £40

 

[Contrarian]

Starting this season, a team won’t play at Saturday lunchtime if it’s had an away CL game on the preceding Wednesday evening.

Clubs with squads that cost more that £300M should be exempt from that.

 

[inaglasshouse]

Are we to assume this game is also cancelled following the late Queens' sad passing?

 

[Rhoswolf]

Reckon so, rail unions must be fuming.

 

[JohnB]

Yes

 

[WickedWolfie]

I believe that 19 Sep 22 will likely be the date of the State funeral so absolutely.

 

[WickedWolfie]

Reckon so, rail unions must be fuming.

In terms of PR continuing with strikes on that day would be disastrous for them.

Edited to add: strikes cancelled l understand.

 

[McSteen]

Yes

Oh dear, was gonna be my first visit this season, hotel and flights to the UK already booked and paid for.
Might as well stay home, but doubt travel insurance will cover anything like this.

Have heard no sporting events for 12 days following the passing of a monarch?
