.....Apparently, Manchester United's first 14 (FOURTEEN!!) away games in all competitions until the New Year are all being televised live.
This means that, domestic league wise, they won't kick-off at the traditional Saturday 3pm in an away fixture until 2013.
I read an article recently that confirmed that a kick-off timed other than 3pm on Sat always favours the away side......
....interesting. Don't you think?
The football 'revolution' in terms of TV rights has a lot to answer for.
Depressingly Sad Sunday Statistic....

Roll on the next week of fixtures then.
It's Saturday, it's tea-time (well, 17:30 to be precise), it's Carrow Road, it's live on ESPN.
The Canaries await their next allocated visitors. Who on earth could they be???

On what planet is a home FA Cup tie against Fulham deemed worthy of being a live televised match - as if it's a stand-out fixture of the round????
Boring and so,so, so predictable. The result never in doubt with zero chance of an upset.
Why bother????????????????
If they were away, fair enough......I suppose.

Thems the breaks friends - if you don't compete you're nowhere in those sorts of games.
Looking forward to the big match live in the next round = Reading at home. It's a pick 'em for sure.............
