Not a problem I would have thought, every one that wants to go to the game will be in the stadium by then, the races will be on while the ground is filling up and all the racing folk will have dispersed by Full time

Hope we play better than we did when we were last on TV - we were dire that day!

Some people have to work when the races are on that would rather be in the ground though pal. For such a big game when buying a season ticket would have expected the date of the game to be changed.
On positive side its money for the club etc its just frustrating!

I start work at 6pm on Saturday nights so it does n`t suit me either, looks like i`ll have to do a bit of arse licking to get to see this one, Fortunately my cover is a Derby Season ticket holder and Derby are away at Millwall that day so I may be covered

Surely you would have the same problem if it were a 3pm ko

This is on SUFC website (but not on ours; our media team have been beaten in reporting a story - there's a surprise). Has someone at the BBC had a funny turn after finsing out they've lost their pension?

Thats why I said about expecting the date to be changed!

My apologies to our Media Dept. then. I looked for it, but the lastest 'news' post was Oster signs. Must've missed it. On Sky against Leeds too in the same week - bloody hell, what's going on??

It's great that we're on the tele, and on the BBC...two games live on tele in one season! Amazing, I guess John Ryan's words had some effect.

However, when will we get some away games on the box!? We're always at home, this'll be five successive Championship games for us on the tele that have been at the Keepmoat.

sigh, im working nights on that saturday so now i can't get to the match. thanks very much bbc.

If we are going to be on the box at all, it's far, far better to be so when we're at home. The away side get totally sod all of the TV money paid out. At home every time for me!

The Keepmoat's facilities for live media are very good, which is probably a deciding factor.
