Sounds like our home game on Sat 20th being moved to 19th (Friday night)

Presume this will be on Sky Sports

I might be the only person happy with this but was going to have to miss this game as I was going to see Peter Kay the following day, for once a moved game works in my favour.

Means we play:

Peterborough (h) Sat 13th April
Lincoln (h) Tues 16th April
Stevenage (h) Fri 19th April

It’s a conspiracy…

Definitely on Sky.
A friend works for them and has just confirmed can see it in their plans.

Stevenage don't play on the Tuesday either. Irritating.

 

[Oufcrealist]

Which makes winning the next 3 all the more important.
There'll definitely be some fatigue by the Stevenage game.

Only one more Saturday home game this season then!

It means that we will have played ten 3pm Saturday home league games this season. But we had played six by October 28th, so only a paltry 4 in the rest of the season. The new Sky deal won't make that much difference as we don't play that many home league games at the traditional time anyway.

Confirmed - https://www.oufc.co.uk/news/2024/march/stevenage-game-rearranged/

I suspect Sky are doing their usual thing of looking for games that will ensure they hit their contractual requirements for number of games per league that they need to show.

Already having horrible flashbacks of the Bolton game.

* Booked to play the final Crown Jewels weekender in Skegness, managed to get a Friday night slot after originally being given a Saturday night slot. Asked the promoters very nicely if I could play on the Friday night, to which they obliged. And now! Bollox!
