Plenty of TV! Some big games there.

Looking forward to the Guard of Honour at Deadwood.

Taking youngsters on to see us clinch promotion will be tricky now (though I suspect the title will be won at Rotherham). It’s a late night for all of the above and the Boro one on Good Friday is a very late finish a long way away from home.

Bit of a nightmare but predictable.

The only downside of being the best team in the league

Still tempted by Boro as its doable from where I am though

Sunderland being on the Friday now isn't ideal, given a lot of our players will be playing that midweek for their countries

Bloody Friday night games grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Should ease the squabbling over ticket priority a little bit at least.

Can someone with a better grasp of numbers than me tell me what needs to happen to be promoted at Sunderland and Champions against Sheffield United.

We need to get the most points of anyone in the league

7 games in April, but only 2 at home.
Busy, busy month.

I did a thread on this a while ago

Not surprising but a bit gutted about Boro. Was planning on getting train from Leeds.

As expected, it's a slap in the face for the fans who travel.

Absolutely

The Sheff U games pisses me off.
Am going to Ayr straight after the game, I won't be getting there until gone midnight now. It was a bit like getting City in the draw, you could put your money on it.

After the “disappointment “ of the City cup draw……..

Evening at Ewood Celebrations to look forward to!!!

This is why it would be so much better if some sort of resale ticket site could be put in place.

Brilliant, I was hoping for something like this

Brilliant for me
The more live TV games the better whatever the times
As a season ticket holder who can’t get to games because there is no transport without having an overnight stay in Burnley
I have done that once and will watch the remainder on TV

Last train to Leeds is at 22:20 so for you it is still doable, only takes around 15 mins to the station.
Can't get back to Burnley though which is annoying!
They could have kept it at 3pm and shown on in sky as the blackout is only for Saturdays. Even 17:30 would have been doable but 8pm is the worst possible time. I think they do things sometimes on purpose out of greed to inconvenience fans as much as possible, so less travel and more stay at home and watch it on TV.

Yeah we'd have to get back to Steeton or Skipton it's a no go. Plus if its the game we seal promotion you wouldn't want to be rushing off at full time!
There's probably not enough of us to fill a minibus either so it just becomes a pain in the neck, definitely don't want to drive up.
