As of 2019/20 season there will be 8 matches scheduled for live TV at 19:45 on a Saturday night!!!

I can only imagine this happening for local derbies, what with travel for away fans on weekends (although I suppose midweek fixtures are hardly well-thought-out in this respect). Then you've got the whole issue of additional policing in town centres and around transport hubs to take into account...

Good call BiB.

The Newcastle-Southampton derby looks a strong possibility for such an arrangement............ ;)

Bad enough settling down with the wine for Saturday football with matches from midday to teatime. With a late match I'll be paralytic before we play.
