Just to confirm that only the Birmingham game has been selected for tv

Good news that Swansea has been moved!

Birmingham kickoff at 8 is ridiculous. No buses to get home on. Thanks to Sky no doubt.

[Vegas Claret]

abysmal for the fans again

[Granny WeatherWax]

Good news that Swansea has been moved!

Not for me! would have preferred it on NYD.

[Spijed]

I suppose it's the price of currently being one of the more successful sides in the Championship.

Not really, we have less TV games over this period than Blackburn and Sheffield Utd, to name a few.

2 of the changes we have are due to the first Boxing Day one being moved a day forward, therefore moving forward the next two by one day.

Was looking forward to watching the Boxing Day game in a pub in Cyprus . Never think of me do they?

[jrgbfc]

The games you wouldn't mind getting moved for TV never do. I always go out NYD so the Swansea game being on in the pub would have done me.

[Raconteur]

Doesn't surprise me that the Boxing day has been moved. Was always my favourite game of the season.

With it now being 3 seasons since we last played on Boxing day, the hurt isn't too bad.

Just to confirm that only the Birmingham game has been selected for tv

Given that the Stoke and Swansea games are not scheduled 3pm on a Saturday, will they both be available on Clarets+ TV? I'm always happy to pay £10 a game and watch from my sofa.

- all for £100k - Birmingham will get £10k - I imagine fans will have to spend more than that as a result

[Vintage Claret]

Not for me! would have preferred it on NYD.

Same here, was planning to drive down for the game and stay NYE and NYD travel back on the 2nd

Least the hotel booking is changeable/refundable so will have to have a rethink!

[Roosterbooster]

I'm getting really peed off with these TV changes

That's another game I can't go to now and it's too late for me to make changes to avoid this. 8 weeks might seem like a long time, but not when I have to make work schedule arrangements in advance of this. Gonna end up costing me more for my season ticket than it would for individual tickets

[4midable]

Fantastic
Spend time with family and have another day out for the game

Rovers have lunch time kick offs Boxing Day at Sunderland and New Years Day at home to Cardiff - their fans not too happy about it

Hi Mike. Where's "home"?

[claret54]

And what's happened to the Christmas Day game!!! I really like having two games in two days.

[whentheballmoves]

Gutted.
I don't get to many games these days, and had booked me and my three kids tickets for this one.
Don't think I can make the new day/time.
Is it easy to get a refund? I paid using my shares sale/gold card.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mike. Where's "home"?

Mike lives in Burnley but you can't get a bus home after an 8 pm game where he lives. I can't get one after a 7:45 kick off.
