Does anyone know when Sky and BT announce their fixtures for December?

Looking to get over for the Arsenal game and want to get the flights and hotel booked as early as possible

Same here, same date..... Looks like a tipical sunday fixture.

Does anybody know anything?

As long as the Boxing Day game and the Palace game stay put I'm happy as I don't think I can make it to other games

Would be nice to know for sure tho!

Pretty sure Villa v Spurs and Stoke v Liverpool were two 5.30 and 8pm on Boxing day last year.

Nevermind that, answer my question you twats!!

I think Sky usually release them early October so i would not imagine you don't have long to wait.

The tv fixtures for December will probably be done by the end of October.

I would think though that City-Liverpool will be on the tv and so probably an 8pm KO on Boxing Day given that it is a big fixture and City-Liverpool matches are nearly always on the tv.

You're right about us never seemingly being involved in them, (although weren't we on against newcastle a few years back) but they do have televised games for the games not on at 15.00

Full everyday normal service on New Year's Day. (Unless it falls on a Sunday.)
Trains are empty all morning, so on the way there it will be like the old days of the 'football special'
