I saw your initial thread that has now gone, bizarre to think it would be deleted for this one when it’s exactly the same information.

It's about time we had something to celebrate against the Jacks, at home on a Saturday night with a stronger team when everyone has been on the ale all day could make this a game to remember :occasion5: :ayatollah:

Ridiculous idea.

Gives our moronic fans and their moronic fans the whole day on the piss before the game which will inevitably make for an incendiary atmosphere inside and outside the stadium.

I bet Plod isn't too impressed and I sometimes wonder if Sky do this sort of thing deliberately in the hope that there will be some sort of flashpoint or trouble which they can then sensationalize on their sports channels.

Interesting perspective calling sections of both fans "moronic". If either set of fans wish to "go on the piss" what right has anyone to say that they should not do this.

The last time I looked we are living in a free country. Anybody who steps outside of the law should receive the appropriate justice.

But to slate both sets of fans before a pint has been sunk is akin to the moronic cancel culture that seems to purvey our society at the moment! :bluebird:

You know exactly who he’s talking about and they’re not just going to be be “on the piss”.

Our recent record v the Jacks:

Hopefully this season Erol Bulut will have a total different mentality than our previous managers.

The Jacks have only lost one of the last nine meetings between the two sides, but what will happen this season remains to be seen with both teams bringing in new managers over the summer.

Saturday 16th September 19:45pm / live on Sky Tv.

With that KO time it could be carnage. Bound to be a few who've had a skinful pre-match. With the egg on beforehand, plenty of 'relaxation' time.

SWP won't be overjoyed about this change.

As for the football, we'd better turn up this time!

I agree. Rugby on a few hours before as well so this just seems like asking for trouble.

Sky and the two clubs would have had to get authorisation from SWP for the game to be at this time, but I'm amazed they agreed to it.

I was preparing for another 12pm Sunday game.

I’m assuming that places in Cardiff city centre will be operating “no football fans” policies, ie no tops, certain brands etc. They’ve done the same in the past I can recall people on here posting about Walkabout and from personal experience I recall the night Wales qualified for EURO 2020 nowhere was letting anyone wearing Wales tops in after the match, and that was when we were all supporting the same team :lol:

Walkabout didn't let any football fans in for years but when we got to the Premier League they changed their policy funnily enough :lol:

It will definitely be more lively, and a better atmosphere, especially if we win, but as it's a bubble, does it make much difference?
