Think for the 3rd year in a row, old mother will have to make do with a visit from me on the Saturday. 
Sure we were away to Swansea the Mothering Sunday just gone. 

Think you’re right.

No reason it couldn't be played Saturday lunchtime if they are that bothered.

It’s Very sad when fans can’t behave themselves and ruin it for the rest of the fans

Is it me or when it clashes ie us and that other side in Bristol, why is it the case that we often need to be the ones to move.

12ish for us on a Saturday and make them play on the Sunday if that's a factor for consideration.

Because it's far less hassle just to move one game than both.

There isn't the numbers to police both Derby and Swansea on the same day, having essentially four groups of supporters in the City centre would be a logistical nightmare. 

Swansea act like dicks evertime they visit us recently so would have always been moved to a less convenient time 

We know the away game will go the same way, but believe this was the only fixture the police wanted moved 

Sadly there's always people that will miss out, but equally there will no doubt be those that can now go 

I was only thinking earlier in the week I hadn't heard if both teams were home the same day

This is good for mothers. Take them to the match with a pie before the game and a pint in the Merchants Arms after the match 

Throw in a bit of posturing and shouting `come on then` in the park and I reckon my mum would be up for it. She`s 84 mind.

Hopefully they'll correct the story to say that it has moved forward a day, rather than back a day.

Glad to see I am not the only one to notice the mistake on the web site, they seem to make quite a few mistakes last season as well

Surely, if the match was due originally to be played on the Saturday, but has now been postponed by a day and put back to the Sunday, it has moved back a day.

If it had been brought forward, it would be played on the Friday.

Not sure if it will be, it's been a while since any issue hosting Cardiff 

The state of the toilets in the Atyeo a couple of seasons ago would say differently.

When was the last time we had a 3pm against them, besides Covid when there were no fans in?

Small thing, rovers are at home to Derby country,

It will be moved to 12pm and shown on sky, the severnside Derby normally gets moved for that

It is at Norwich's request.

Edit that is what City's tweet sounded like to me but Norwich one says to avoid something else happening at AG on the Saturday.

Must be rugby although their fixtures haven't been announced yet.
