Just in case nobody has noticed

[Howard_lfc]

We have the early k.o. next saturday away at Newcastle after the international break. :shake

Seems Rafa's comments have fallen on deaf ears.

this had been noticed months ago, but it was never going to change seeing as it's a live game on sky

Wasn't sure how far in advance the sky games are allocated.

aye mate, going back to when rafa originally brought up the issue they had already been scheduled, hopefully with him being outspoken it wont happen again, we won't really see till next season now tho

[Kopite_Colin]

Hhhmm. Maybe no Mascher for that game then. He plays for Argentina on Tuesday night against Columbia in Bogota. At least the game is Tuesday not Wednesday which gives him time to get back OK.

When's Xabi likely to be fit? I wnder if Momo or Leiva will partner SG then.

[carrsim]

the good news is that both agger and torres have been at melwood for the past 2 weeks.

this whole match will be all about torres if you ask me

[jonesie]

Isn't it even earlier than usual? I'm sure i've seen it advertised for 12.15. Looks likes its straight out of bed and to the pub then...

EDIT: Actually no its not. Sunday mornings eh?

[Gazzla]

On the plus side it gives us a bit more time to recover for the Champions League game against Porto

We'll GUBB the Geordies at anytime of the day the way they are playing/defending at the mo.

[The Erectile Banana]

We do seem to have a disproportionate amount of these early kick offs.

Although it was worse last season, I seem to remember us having four in a row at one point, and not doing very well in any of them.

The worst thing about these games is that they encourage you to spend the whole day in the pub but the best thing about them is that they encourage you to spend the whole day in the pub.

Funnily enough we had double the amount any of the other big clubs last year. This was after Jose moaned about it.

Lets see if Rafa's moans carry the same weight as the Mourinho. Somehow I think not and we'll still have more than our fair share next year. I'd love us to return to the majority of games being at 3pm on a Saturday. A bygone era methinks.

As long as i can keep getting tickets, then yeah.

Otherwise, i'd quite like them to be on the telly.
