    Rather it was Boxing Day but 1pm is a bit better than 3pm on Christmas Eve.

    Unfortunately I won't get finished till 2.00 and it's on the dark side of town.
    No chance of making it " pissed off " big time.

    I'm in the same boat as you mate. Would've made a 3pm kick off but working until 2pm that day so that's my season ticket not being used!!!

    Hogmanay game doesn't bother me, with the early KO most will be home by 4 o'clock.

    The Christmas Eve game isn't brilliant but it's not too bad really. I'd rather have had it moved to Boxing Day as I like the football then but in some ways keeping it on the Saturday with more public transport etc might be easier for some.

    So many reasons for people not to go especially folk with young families.

    Of course folk have stuff to do. I'm in that boat. But I've got other stuff to do on Boxing Day as well.

    Whatever day you play either side of Christmas will have an effect on different people.

    Hear what you are saying however I think more people would be able to make Boxing day game than xmas or new years eve hence why it is traditionally one of the best days for attendances in the UK.

    What impact will the kick off time have on hospitality that day? Was hoping to take my Grandad as it's his birthday!

    Better but Boxing Day would've been better. Both for me and for the attendance.

    I had hospitality at the 4-0 game v The Rangers. Think we had to be there at 10.30 (12 15ko?). Served hot rolls before, usual snacks at h/t and 3 course meal after game.

    Fair enough. I don't know why Hibs haven't done so.

    My point though was more about the fact that fixtures were scheduled for Christmas Eve and New Years Eve in the first place.
