bristolcitysweden Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 With Rovers at home to Portsmouth on the same date will the CIty v Wigan game be moved to the Sunday? I reckon it will be with Rovers playing at the Tuesday and us on the Wednesday the same week. Subject to Sky and Julie H allowing both clubs to play on the Saturday of course When can we expect a decision on this? Cheers Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieH Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 I am in work later and will check on the progress of discussions between both clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We play Charlton (h) on the Wednesday the same week. Not likely. The week after it's the fourth round of the League Cup on the Wed but that should not be a problem (if we play Sunday).

CotswoldRed Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 OK, I'm slightly off topic, but LJ will always be happy to move games if it means more rest, even though 1) it pees off the fans 2) we've not proven extra rest works for us (check the results when we've 'benefitted' from an extra day). It's treating the fans with contempt when moved for this reason alone. If we can play Saturday 3pm, just play then, always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbyhutchscurlymullet Posted July 8, 2019 Report Share Posted July 8, 2019 I see the Wigan home game in October has been moved to the Sunday. Im sure we'd play more games on a Saturday at 3 if we ever got to the prem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fixture has been rescheduled due to the original date and time clashing with Bristol Rovers' home game against Portsmouth on Saturday 26 October. The changed fixture is not scheduled to be televised." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
