No More Monday Night Football

La Liga is dropping Monday night football matches after fans protests.

Hope you're taking note, EPL.

Madrid and Barca need the money to keep up with engkish football.

.....

Real have just won three CL on the bounce. I think it is safe to say they are well ahead of English football.

Why would anyone not want a game on a Monday night?

Nightmare for away fans. Means a day off work and getting home in the early hours.

Does this affect Baatca and Real? They have they own custom TV deals right?
Which everyone is desperate to stop UTD doing, cos well... that truly would be the Endgame.

I imagine so. They can’t play themselves.

No. There was a revision of how Spanish TV revenue was split last season and going forward, for the next four seasons, too.

Aren’t TV viewers fans though?

Ohh, well thats interesting. That can only be a good thing for Spanish Football. But over here, Monday night footie is great, under the lights. Nice... but im pretty sure, if it reached a certain level, the FA would have to take action cos, as much as i love my TV games, those going to games should be rewarded. They are the lifeblood.

EPL won't take note & MNF can be great at times unlike some league matches which are played on Friday night which really do irritate me.

I said it 10 or more years ago - i won't be long before EPL kick offs are entirely scheduled for peak times in the Far East. They will do what they want to suit the people that PAY THE MOST.
