As expected the Derby has been moved to the Sunday

Suits me in this instance.

**HIBERNIAN-0762** · 05-09-2014 09:25 PM

12.15 KO against the cheats?

What a ****ing joke!

What would you suggest as an alternative time if the match was to be covered on TV?

Serious question and I'd appreciate some reasoning to back-up your previous spewage.

well what time would suit you.

**~~Sergey~~** · 05-09-2014 10:22 PM

It looks like HIBERNIAN-0762 has been well and truly spanked (what happened to the slipper/spanking smiley?)

Could it be a yellow card for trolling...and extremely poor trolling as far as trolling goes?

Even a 2pm kick off would be a huge help as it was the other year if memory serves me right. As it is, it means forking out a fortune on the Saturday night or alternatively an early morning drive up for the beast of SPFL football that is a sober Edinburgh derby. Yes, I did mean beast rather than feast.

**InterviewLoI** · 06-09-2014 12:50 AM

Well I'm delighted because the flights are cheap and I don't have to stay the night :D I can't wait for this now

**Pete** · 06-09-2014 01:35 AM

I'd prefer a Friday evening game or an afternoon slot so you can have a few pints during a decent build up to the game.

TV is king I suppose and we'll just have to live with it. The upside is that you have the rest of the day free to sit in the pub, talk about the match and watch foreign football or go to Dobbies with the family.

***lucky*** · 06-09-2014 07:16 AM

Don't think this is that much of a surprise. Always going to be on TV but the KO time is still crap.

***Billy Whizz*** · 06-09-2014 07:23 AM

Used to like the 6.05pm Sunday night kick offs. Remember we beat Hearts 6-2

**Pretty Boy** · 06-09-2014 07:49 AM

Why can't we have a 2pm or 4pm kick off same as the English football.

It's not like we are directly competing with them on TV. I've been in pubs in England several times when there has been a Scottish game on and they have switched over for rugby league or cricket.

Because English folk like me want to have the best of both worlds, Hibs game early doors then pub for English game later on

well i concur

it's a rank KO time

***3pm*** · 06-09-2014 09:06 AM

I don't really care about time if we beat them.

Sunday tv games on sky or BT are always 1215 or 1230 mate...u r probably thinking of a cup match on the Beeb...no chance of 2pm on sky/bt as would interfere with EPL games

**emerald green** · 06-09-2014 10:39 AM

12:15 on a Sunday morning just seems to dampen the atmosphere IMO.

I'm an old fashioned traditionalist I'm afraid and would much prefer a 3 o'clock kick off on a Saturday afternoon. If I had my way I would get rid of the cameras from these games and see what the attendances would be like then.

Before I get slaughtered, I know...it's not going to happen.

**Pretty Boy** · 06-09-2014 11:26 AM

When did we last have a derby at 3 on a Saturday?

Was the Wotherspoon Scottish Cup game at 3? Was it even a Saturday?

I honestly can't remember one.

That was 3.30 on sunday. Was it the unbeatable game the last time perhaps?

***Diclonius*** · 06-09-2014 11:34 AM

Oh no, the derby time is slightly different.

The Spoonie 1-0 cup win against the Yams was on a Sunday. KO 3:30pm.

I can't remember the last derby that kicked off at 3pm on a Saturday either. It must have been some years ago?

Any need for comments like this.

The change inconveniences people, especially those travelling from outside Edinburgh, so it's going to be discussed. It inconveniences me because I'd deliberately changed the day I go on holiday to the Sunday, before I knew it was a derby, from a Saturday and I'll now miss the game. That pisses me off.

Never understand the point in commebting on a thread just to make a sarcastic comment about something that has an effect on other people.

Point taken, I take it back.

The original comment was a reference to someone going mental at the change without specifying any reason. It affects me too as I have to travel a good 2-3 hours to get to home games, albeit I can usually make the game.

**down-the-slope** · 07-09-2014 10:31 PM

another game missed for me then - its the worst of all the numerous possible times / days for me and is becoming the norm....

Yet again a 'purchase' that has no value to me

Yet you posted about the extra value a free ticket for the Cowdenbeath game brings to ST holders,make your mind up.

I remember we played them in a top 6 game a week or 2 after we beat them at tiny (when shiels and GOC score).

It finished 2-2 - they got a flukey deflected equaliser (obviously) late on. A free kick bounced off Webster I think.
