Very disappointing.

Disappointing, but not surprising

If the away game had not been moved for an international weekend then it would have been an early kick off, was obvious this would happen.

Least surprising news of the week, and, based on the berkshire encounter, pretty unnecessary.

 

[Essexyellows]

Abjectly pointless interference by TVP as usual.

 

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

No surprise

The Bristol Rovers game was changed to an early kick off so this was always follow suit.

Be a lot more 12.30pm games next season as this is when Sky are going to show the 5 League 1 and 2 games in the new tv deal, you would think league one would get 3 of the 5 fairly regularly so that is 25% of a full Saturday fixture list, no avoiding them.

However, it could also be a bonus for those who cannot attend or cannot get a ticket. Early kick off moves the game out of the 3pm blackout and allows iFollow to broadcast live.
Mind you, if some are to be believed, that will mean a drop in ticket sales because we will all stay at home and watch a single camera angle, constant replay interrupted, dodgy quality, and sometimes dropped commentary coverage.

Excellent news.

Notwithstanding, having to listen to Peter Rhodes-Brown for 90 minutes!

are Chelsea playing a late kick off game that day ( KO moved so the plastics can watch it)?

what a load of bollox - no doubt TVP tooled up, armoured up and mobbed up will be out in (err) force, ...including mounted division

I turn the sound off and listen to Albert Ayler. Though I'd listen to a man drilling through a wall in preference to Rhoades-Brown.

Funny on Saturday to see all those TVP turn up and stare at the 100 Burton fans. What “intelligence” do they have?

X is awash with posts from Reading fans whom claim to have purchased tickets in the home sections for next Saturday’s game.

Bullshit or will Berkshire’s finest () make an appearance in the home end?

The club was slow on stopping this in the past for other away sell outs, and I remember this leading to a bit of trouble in the home ends.

Wouldn't be at all surprised if the club haven't put something in place to block Reading fans being able to get tickets in the home end. Just make sure we beat them to nil and I'm sure they'll slink off quietly into League 2...

TVP appears to be run like the Post Office. Just make decisions based on false data and blindly ignore the error of their decision making process.
Hardly surprising their credibility is at an all time low with the public.
But senior TVP management think they are whiter than white.
They manage football matches like they have occupied Ukraine.
Bring out all their hardware and troops like it's a Victory Day parade in Red Square.
