Dave Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Despite having publicly announced that no games were to be moved in April, the club have now again been forced to alter a fixture at the behest of the Premier League for TV transmission. And in a move that merely reinforces the feeling that we're being f*cked around, our longest away trip of the season has now been moved - at 26 days notice. We will now play Portsmouth at Fratton Park on Saturday April 12th with a 5.15pm kickoff. So to anyone who booked public transport - the last train from Kings Cross leaves at 8.30pm that night - tough. You're now required to stump up again to alter your ticket - and of course find the cash to book overnight digs somewhere as well....assuming the game doesn't change again. Pathetic. Why the fuck can't these decisions be made earlier? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UV Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 With all the money floating around for TV coverage of these games there really should be some sort of compensation fund for traveling supporters who have already made arrangements when these games are rescheduled.

TRon Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 It's another Setanta game which means having to watch McManamans facial contortions again. I swear his face moves in three different directions every time he opens his gob. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 If these bastards are going to move games then the TV companies and the two clubs should subsidise the cost of the tickets for away fans. Dicks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
