      Is it right that we have so many early kick off's compared to the other top teams?

      The start of our season

      v Sheff Utd (12:45)
      v West Ham (12:45)
      v Everton (12:45)
      v Chelsea (13:30)
      v Spurs (12:45)
      v Bolton (12:45)

      How can this possibly be allowed to happen?

      It pisses me off so much that Sky can piss around with all these games but surely there is something wrong where it takes 2 months in to the season before we play our first 3 o'clock kick off.

      plus it gives other teams advantages as they know our result and know they've gotta go out and do better.

      Early kick offs are great for us in Oz cos the matches are almost primetime,but I do sympathise with with you lot especiall the ones that do a long trek to support their beloved team.

      I am convinced that players do not perform as well in early kick off's.  I don't have any stats to prove it but I imagine that there are far more draw's in early kick off's than normal 3 o clock games.

      This would surely affect us in the long run.

      And yes, if we have a bad result then other teams know they have a chance to capitalise.

      If we have a good result then they know they have to perform also.

      Somewhere along the line it's not right.

      Each team should play the same percentage of kick offs at different times.  When are we supposed to get in our pre-match drink - at home with our Weetabix?

      Chavski 1.30 kick off, i'll have to get up in the middle of the night to get there! The only good thing about those early kick off is some one always turns up straight from a night out not having been to bed and just stays on the piss! Yes there is an element of class amongst our fine support!  ;D

      I am travelling from Belfast to the Tottenham match in September flying early that morning so I don't mind that much, as we can have a pint or two, not getting too bladdered, watch the game then get tanked up discussing the match afterwards then travel home happy after adding another three points to our title winning total.
