Moving it to be on TV abroad is bollocks, is there an over eager fishing town in the US desperate to see Grimsby or something?

A football club putting money before its supporters is nothing new yet this seems the thin end of the wedge. Even worse for Grimsby fans for whom a return rail trip is out of the question.
A ridiculous decision, utterly ridiculous |

I feel sorry for the Grimsby fans - that is one awful KO time for them - means they won't be back in the land of fish until silly o' clock on the Saturday night/Sunday morning.
I assume it's because there's a shed load of ties being played in London that w/e and the Law are worried that they would be too thinly stretched if they all started at 3 on Saturday afternoon. Still, who comes up with these schedules - and do clubs have any say in the matter? |

It's not just our game that has been moved. Not including BT and BBC matches six will be played at 12:30, four at 17:30 and six on the Sunday. This season has been the start of a new TV contract so it's probably a sign of things to come.

"The broadcast fee for these ties is £50,000 per club"
In comparison, at circa £100m for finishing bottom of the Premier League, the tv money for a Prem game works out at something like £2.5m per game played!

Impossible to make it to King's Cross by 1946 with a 1730 kick off. All about the TV these days. No thought given to the fans at all. We are just product. Sickening.

I agree, but I’m not sure the clubs can refuse, can they?

I don't think they can. Regardless of your opinion of the club, FC United of Manchester had an FA Cup game a few years ago, and wanted to charge their usual ticket price of £9. However there is a rule that from round 1 onwards there is a minimum price of £10 for adult tickets, and as much as they complained they had to charge the £10.
TV also wanted to cover the game live on a Monday night with all sorts of cameras in the tunnel, dressing room etc, and they had to comply despite initially refusing To view the link you have to Register or Login

It's a ridiculous thing, but, I don't think it was a Palace decision. Preparing to be corrected on the latter.

West Ham v Birmingham City is a 12.30 kick off for the same 'overseas transmission' reason

Even going to Hull the last train leaves at 2002, with a 10 minute change window at Sheffield. Pish.

The FA have sold their sole to the devil for TV money. The following games all 5:30 pm kick offs on January 5th just for overseas broadcasts
Bristol City v Huddersfield Town Crystal Palace v Grimsby Town Newcastle United v Blackburn Rovers Norwich City v Portsmouth The broadcast fee for these ties is £50,000 per club. They don't give a toss for the fans that will attend the matches the overseas viewer will see games being played in half empty stadiums. Hope the old men in blazers of the FA rot in hell..
