Absolutely gutted Sky have moved this to Friday night. As my partner pointed out to me yesterday, we''re on holiday for the game. It''ll be only the second I''ve missed for 12 years.Bloody Sky.

It''s part of the game now unfortunately, happens to every club. I do agree it is a pain, especially if you have to change your work arrangements (like me)

Wait until Sky get together with Delia.It''ll be NCFC season tickets linked to Sky Sports subscription... and if you aren''t registered you won''t be allowed in. If a game makes more money by being moved we''ll ultimately see our football linked to US and far eastern time zones.The tip of yet another cynical iceberg.

I think the point is (taking the thread away from a Cluck-bashing thread back on topic), why do Sky feel the need to move games like this? They have 5 sky sports channels; if they want to put the game on TV, fine, do it. Why they think they need to move it to random times of the week? And why at such short notice? Why not choose the first half of the season right near the start and the remaining ones during January?

You have more faith in him than I do Harry. One gets married by saying, "I do", not "I don''t." [:D]
