Happy days a Boxing Day fixture to watch in the pub, don't think we've been on telly on Boxing Day since the 2-2 draw at Villa, after leading 2-0.
I'm sure London Underground will fuck this up by announcing maintenance work on Boxing Day.

Have held off getting bt sport thus far despite severe pressure from my kids (costing a freaking fortune as it is :x ) but the nba is starting soon and I promised one of them I will have it in before it starts so I guess I will have two AFC games to half justify it ? :roll: :oops:

I don't think the West Ham time changed it was always 3PM on Boxing day, I think they have learnt not to put Arsenal at home after Arsenal having to cancel the games because of tube strikes.

Though you think they could start negotiating now for Boxing day rather than leave it to the last minute, as Boxing day being the 26th December shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone even the people who work at TFL. :D

I am very surprised the Everton game has been moved to Sunday, as we are away to Napoli on the Wednesday ; I though the CL teams all played on the Saturdays before a round of European matches?

Obviously not, which has now scuppered some plans for a Christmas booze up!

BT Sport must be struggling. Which isn't surprising seeing as it's a fucking rip off. :roll:
