Huddersfield away is the game in the international window, so that will be moved.

I'm not a fan of 12.30 kick offs either, this and Lincoln will mean an early start for me.

Doubt this will be our last game at 12.30. Sky will be expecting us to win the league and will want to have their cameras there if/when promotion is achieved and the title.

Can see Bolton, Reading and maybe Northampton games being moved.

You can put your house on the Bolton game being moved at the very least

As I said after the Lincoln game was moved to an earlier kick - off - that would not be the last game to be moved .
Top of the League - attracts move TV interest :bluebird: Good place to be .

We need to get used to it! We’re top of the League, entertaining, playing some lovely stuff, and improving week on week! :thumbup:

Lots of notice, so most will adjust their schedules, and it’s good practice for our return to the Premier League, when oddly timed fixtures will be the norm! :ayatollah:

I contacted CCFC about these 12.30 kick off pointing out
The fans are out, out including the kids playing Saturday football ( our future )
The atmosphere is flat, maybe to do with zero pub time
A lot of the reason ( correct me if If you disagree);is I meet my mate for a couple of hours and have a drink and. A hat before whereas I might not see them any other time
The players routine is affected and they feed off us


Fair play they replied within a day, basic all they agreed with every point I made but said the money was too good to be turned down
At least that was an honest reply

But for the money quoted above it’s a b*stard disgrace all round

I b*stard love the City

In Facebook I’m DaveStan in case anyone thinks I’m a troll

Club don't really have any say in it, it's part of the contract that Sky have with the EFL.
