Corporal_Jones Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 yes they do I can't be bothered checking their fixture lists but it's far from the case that they never play on Saturdays. And traditionally it's been them and not ManUre who are at home on the same day as Latics. Furthermore, there is nothing in the PL rules, as far as I'm aware, that states that they will be playing most home games on Sundays and Mondays for evermore.

Corporal_Jones Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 3 out of 7 games league games they have played this season were on a Sat. The rest were on Sunday or Monday. So nearly half. Which doesn't remove the problems referred to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KYLEOAFC Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 1) :censored:ty play the majority of their games now on sunday/monday 2) When the FL calculate our fixtures, they calculate them so we play our home games when city are away. Seeeeemples Yeah its not too bad these days but there are 4 saturdays coming up ths season where city are at home and we are also both clubs with 3pm Kick offs.

ghostofcecere Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 City will continue to play on a Sunday as long as they are in the Europa League which is held on a Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Yeah its not too bad these days but there are 4 saturdays coming up ths season where city are at home and we are also both clubs with 3pm Kick offs. I think this is the least of any worries for the new stadium. The fixtures will just shift us to opposite weekends than City. End of story.

De_La_Vega Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Who cares? I hardly think the fixture list will be weighted on our account and apart from the fact that you all want to win this little locking of horns, there is no point in this debate. Forget it and move on - City and United are far less of a problem than the perils of moving away from the core of our traditional support.

When we're moving into one of their heartlands it's hardly unconnected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
