Really bugging me that for the next 3 weeks we have to play on a Monday night. How that got passed is criminal. Surely they looked at the schedule and figured it was unprecedented and maybe they should televise us on the Saturday or sundaybfor at least one of those?
First of all - it fucks over a lot of fans who find if hard to travel to the lane on a weekday evening. But especially for the away trips. Or even if it's no problem, some of us like to make a day ( and night) out of it but that's not really possible on a Monday night.
Our club is in a title race and sky have made it more difficult for our fans to see their team play live.
Second. I see it as a disadvantage to the team. If Leicester drop points in any of the coming 3 games we have 1-2 days to stew on that and that only adds to the immense pressure on the players. It also takes the pressure of Leicester to not see the gap decrease between us should we say win a game before they play.
Finally as a tv audience, it takes a lot of the drama away when the two sides battling for the title are playing days apart. Much more entertaining if it's the same day or even the same time in my opinion.
