I will say this once as quite rightly pointed out this is not the politics thread. Yes I am bitter, Brexit personally costs me £8-10,000 anually in lost pay due to the dramatic collapse of the pound. Thats not made up figures thats my brexit reality.
With regards to kick off times, I realise you are being flippant as was I , however, there is one reason and one reason only for the kick off times with their scatter gun approach, tv audiences in Asia and the states. That is the ONLY factorwhy these times exist, nothing to do with British audiences

shame its dropped by 25% since brexit eh?
It hasn't though. It was 1.14 in 2017 and been roughly the same since. It was up around 2015 to 1.45 but that was an exception in the last 10 to 15 years.

8 and 8.15pm kick-offs. Is this just big TV flexing its muscles? I'm often falling asleep on the sofa during the second half of matches, never mind the travelling away fans.
Whatever time the kick off I’m usually asleep during the second half watching Swindon.

Is it me or does there seems to be a regular occurrence of fans collapsing at games these days?
Hope the fan at Bolton is OK.

Yeah, think the main difference is now they stop the game, I’m sure if it happened in the 80s they’d have just carried on playing

Reading... Yes, dreadful that a bad owner got through the rigorous (!) EFL checks and I hope the situation gets resolved shortly... but it just shows how much smaller clubs rely on massively rich idiots to fund them massively beyond their means.

Everyone having sympathy with Reading forgetting they’ve spent millions and their fans milking it over the last few years…you reap what you sow…no sympathy here

Pathetic attitude, given the shitness of our owner currently i'd like to think we as a fanbase should have sympathy for those with worse owners than us. Suspect this is routed in tribal bollocks anyway

But are there worse owners than ours. At least they know who their owners are.
