    No late EPL match again this week, why is this, bad deal if your a UK subscriber with only one match on today! Least Setanta have a match at 15.00 today.

    Stupid decision. I cannot think of one valid reason for it being moved.

    I would have thought that a Sunday noon game would attract much less viewers than a saturday 17.30 game? What with Sunday being a church/family day, less people down the pub and all of that? So is there 3 games on today now but no Monday night game again??

    SIX games in almost TWO months. And the Europa League blocked! Glad I got rid of it and haven't missed it one jot!

    Probably because its a local derby and they want to try and ensure the fans are not too tanked up before the game I would say.

    Well I went to last seasons game & the police had a torrid time with the Utd away fans.

    Maybe thats the sole reason - not 100% on that though m8
