Charlton v Cardiff will be a 1pm kick off.

On Boxing Day the fixture at Charlton will be a 1pm kick off instead of the advertised 3pm.
So an early start for South Wales Bluebirds heading to South East London.

This fixture has been changed after consultation with the Safety Advisory Group. The game has not been moved because of television.


Cardiff City’s Boxing Day trip to Charlton Athletic has been moved forward two hours and will now kick-off at the earlier time of 1pm.

Originally scheduled for a 3pm kick-off, the fixture has been moved after discussions with the Safety Advisory Group, the Bluebirds revealed on their official website.

They added it has not been selected for live TV coverage as yet.

It comes after the Bluebirds' first game of the season away to Blackburn was moved following the release of fixtures earlier this month to be shown by Sky television.

They will kick-off at Ewood Park at 7.45pm on Friday August 8 in front of the cameras.

Meanwhile Sky will also screen City's trip to Sixfields to play Coventry in the Capital One Cup first round days later on August 13.

Oh well, more time to drink when we get back to South Wales!

is there a clash with high profile game in london? changing time on boxing day makes no sense anyway as pubs open at 11 so wont stop drinking.

What a stupid time to have a game on Boxing Day

Didn't you know ? the Safety Group's party starts at 4 pm.

thats point was making no sense at all.

If it was Millwall, then, perhaps. No more than that. But Charlton?

Thats mad decision !

Its because of that notorious Charlton firm. Bobby and Jacky. Ffs

Most fixtures KO early on boxing day.

It's a f*cking stupid decision.

Southampton are at Palace which is about 10 miles away but surely that wouldn't be an issue?

we seem to get fucked over far more in the championship than we did last year..........

Yep, the old Boxing Dap (night) Party in my family is a big tradition, so back home early is VERY good!

It happened to us a few seasons ago at Watford if people recall.
The excuse given then if i remember was that it was all around not paying the police overtime on boxing day.
It is what is, so I for one will be there supporting the mighty BLUEBIRDS
