Good to see a club stand their ground against another kick off time change for a visit from Leeds, and showing it's within the clubs' powers if a TV selection is not involved.
Burnley Football Club has been advised by various authorities to move the high profile match against Leeds United at Turf Moor forward to a lunchtime kick off.
The club has considered this advice, but has opted to retain the original kick-off time.
The game will take place, as planned, at 3pm on Saturday, March 15, 2014.
Burnley FC Chief Executive Lee Hoos said “We appreciate and understand the concerns of the authorities.
“However we view this match as a great opportunity for the fans of both clubs to show that 3pm kick–offs of high profile matches are perfectly manageable.
“The majority of fans simply want to come and enjoy a game of football and I am sure they will be encouraging their fellow supporters to confine themselves to doing just that.”

Home game with Forest on Easter Monday is now a 5.15pm kick off and on Sky. Just for a change

Can anyone remember the payment you receive for a home and away game?

We are very similar to Manure, we are playing rubbish football, the players look disinterested and unmotivated and we have no chance of winning anything just like Manure.
We are Leeds, we have to believe our new players are good enough, encourage and support them and help them grow in to a team to be reckoned with. MoT

I dunno why they don't just tell us which games are NOT on TV! There is something very odd about all this don't you think? I know we prob get the biggest TV audiences but that is 12 games this season now! It must be way more times than any other club! Are Sky gambling that something sensational is going to happen at ER? Years ago Murdoch bought into the club of course and took a 10% stake....which like the rest of us went down the pan...perhaps he is a supporter!
