So Sheffield United vs Leeds is now on sky with a dinner time kick-off on Saturday 10th Feb, at the same time as our game vs Sheffield Wednesday! Surely our game can go back to 3pm!!
Wasn't our game moved for safety reasons? Earlier kickoff usually means fewer drinks are had beforehand. That won't have changed, so I don't see that happening.
WYP/SYP resources will be stretched rather thin covering two Yorkshire derbies kicking off (literally and figuratively) at the same time. I take the point you’ve made but I wouldn’t be surprised to see the kick off moved to 15:00.
They draft in coppers from other forces they will want want the earlier kick off time rather than letting thousands of people be able to drink for an additional few hours.
haha. Or ours could even be Sunday?? It may well stay as it is, but I'd imagine a big amount of the police force will be needed at Sheff Utd vs Leeds, unless WYP bring loads of coppers to mainly take care of that one!
