Imagine if they ended up electing someone who raised a nonce. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not where I am It's a rare day I watch football these days, other than if something is on telly in the local pub, but I would have followed the final games Decisions like this won't please everyone, but then I can't expect them to take people like me into account Not sure what was wrong with Sunday if the coronation is on Saturday, though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,262 Posted January 20, 2023 When I saw the original fixture list I thought the whole lot would be moved for TV anyway. Not sure why it wasn't moved to the Sunday though. Still it's more great news for those who don't bother to go to matches as there should be plenty of TV/stream coverage. Bank Holiday travel will be an issue for some.

It's a UK Bank Holiday, so to me it seems a very reasonable day to play a football match. I would have gone to the Birmingham match next weekend, but now can't make it on Tuesday 21st.
