A Sky game 16:07 - Oct 19 with 3104 viewsNorthernr

The, presumably drug addled, absolute danger Sky have got picking their live games for them has gone for Preston v QPR, Friday December 1, 8pm.

Selections made out to & including weekend of 15-18 Dec and that's the only one on the list. Hopefully there are no gaps to add later bolt ons.
Thankfully Norwich left alone so now we can move on to doing battle with the trains

Looks like the last train from Preston to London is early into the second half, which shouldn't be a big issue as we've usually lost by then

Preston away = Preston 2 QPR 0.

Fk all that.

Stefan Moore, Stefan Moore running down the wing. Stefan Moore, Stefan Moore running down the wing. He runs like a cheetah, his crosses couldn't be sweeter. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore. Stefan Moore.

Seems like just yesterday I was giddy about Critchley leading us to a win there and promotion.

Early in the second half. So perhaps they have yeh and they're doing us a favour.

another season of nightmares getting to away games, 2 moved to Friday nights and any game on a Saturday either has a train strike or rail replacement buses.

Football is noting without fans?


I know some fans will go. Those who can get there(and back) by car; those who will stay up overnight ( we see you Mr Editor).

But wouldn't it be a slap in the face for Sky if no away fans were present?

This is what its like coming to most home games for those of us out in the sticks .
Just booked Hull at home dec 9th & part bus replacement 2hrs37 just to liverpool st.
Booked train/bus for Leicester home game & then last friday got an email saying the train part of the journey from Ingatestone to liv st will not now run so the only option then was train to stomarket then a bus to cambridge wait 33 mins then another bus to Stanstead then a train to liv st .
Same after the game but only return option was 8pm ish & arrives back in Diss at 1am Sunday !
Oh the joy .

Think they've got another 48 hours to call a strike for the Rotherham game which I'm currently nursing 8 match and 4 return train tickets for.

I've just looked this up & the bus replacement is Witham to Billericay, the same as the trip to Norwich.

Not the greatest, but this is one of the easiest of the bus trips. It takes far less time than is allowed for & trains leave Billericay for LS every 15 minutes.

It might mean I make the pub closer to 1.30 than 1.00 though!

Yes cheers for the info , this has just changed & i would use this but having got a refund when the only option showing from Diss was the Stanstead option they now want £56 return so i wont be paying that , the legendary Stowmarketrange very kindly offered a lift to the game , some very good people on this board .

You have to call it no less than two weeks before you do it. Unfortunately the last few they've literally called it at the last possible moment, so watch out for news this afternoon or tomorrow morning.

I would be amazed if they don't strike December 16th ( Wednesday away ) and 23rd December ( Southampton home )

Unusual to not have a home game on tv by now even by our poor standards

Poll: Now it’s slightly clearer cut who do you want as manager ?
