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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Having you been talking to your mates at the FSA CT

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

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!

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

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

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.

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.
