Thanks, Apollo.
I already had these moves in my diary. They'll all presumably be moved to the 14.00 Sunday slot UNLESS they've already been chosen by SKY for the 16.30 or even the Monday Night slot..

Can I ask if these moves are definite, or anticipated?

Thanks Apollo, appreciate the heads up.

They are anticipated on the basis that clubs playing on a Thursday will be given 2 clear days before their PL fixture. All our ECL fixtures were moved to Sunday last season apart from the Leeds home game where we had fixture congestion as we were still in the Carabao Cup and ended up playing 3 games in 5 days and getting thrashed by Leeds on the Saturday night after a Thursday night home leg.

The one doubt in the coming schedule is the 1st game as we don't know yet whether we'll be playing on the Wednesday or the Thursday. If it's Wednesday then the Saturday fixture will remain (SKY etc. have already chosen their matches for September). Ironically the PL game that follows is again away at Leeds.

All, I assumed that the matches will be moved to the Sunday, usually 14h although Sky could get us to play the later game. The Monday nighters we will only know when they release their broadcast dates.

Talking of which this is the LINK to see the games hijacked by SKY and TNT, (at time of posting to end September. One to add to your favourites.
