JPT 2nd leg live on Sky

[Shrimpergonzo]

Widely predicted, but just confirmed - 7.15ko on Wednesday 20th Feb

 

[Silencer]

What a random Kick off time.

Also, just throwing this out there, does anyone knows the answer...

In the previous rounds of the JPT, if the games finished level after 90 minutes then they have gone straight to penalty shootout.

If we are level (on aggregate) with Orient after 90 mins in the second leg, is there extra time or is it also straight to pens?

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

That's excellent, anyone any idea how much money we get for this?

 

[MK Shrimper]

Huzzah! :happy:

Straight to penalties if even after 90 mins on aggregate

If it's a 7.15pm kick off then they are idiots. How many will struggle to make it home from work in time? I know I will.

Straight to pens. - only extra time in the final (see rule 13 on the link below)

Hmmm 7:15 kick off is very random is this a mistake?

Sky dont give a *hit about "fans" its all about the sponsorship etc

 

[Shrimpergonzo]

According to the Sky schedule the programme starts at 7.00pm - as their build up is only normally 15 minutes before KO for this level of football, I fear 7.15 is not a misprint

 

[TrueBlue]

Sky dont give a **** about "fans" its all about the sponsorship etc

Then why was the first leg 7:45?

 

[ms brush]

Well that is pants - who's ridiculous idea was that??

I'm in Luton for work that day and wont be finishing till 6... and would have struggled to get to the ground for 7.45... so looks like I'll be watching on Sky - and will definately miss kick off either way!!

 

[TrueBlue]

I have e-mailed SK over the reasoning behind it! It's going to make it a struggle for away fans too to get down after work

 

[Danshrimper]

I might be wrong but I think the early kick off time has something to do with champions league games on that night

About time Sky got their priorities right.

Not sure how us kicking of half an hour earlier helps anything ?

It is a bizarre time to kick off, not heard of that happening before. Ill be mostly working from home that day then....

AC Milan V Barcelona and Galatasaray V Schalke 04. No English clubs play that night.

 

[Boreham Shrimper]

I'll be back from Russia by then but how am I supposed to make it from Canary Wharf to Roots Hall for a 7:15pm kick-off? ****ing Sky ******s. :angry:

 

[Smiffy]

****ing joke of a KO time.

But Sky call the shots and screw the fans over time and time again.

If we weren't so skint, I would love to see the club tell Sky to do one and play the game without cameras, at a proper 7:45 or 8:00pm slot.

Modern football is a bitch.

Is this even worth that much money?

I imagine it will impact on the crowd quite a bit. 30 mins doesn't sound a big deal, but it makes a massive difference for those working/living in London/outside areas etc.

 

[Jam_Man]

Sky may call the shots but Id still like to know the logic behind it.

Just cant understand the reasoning behind it. Is it because we are being pushed in front of a European game ?
