Seems a long time since we played at home on Boxing Day. Perhaps, but remember when cup games come around, we might have extra games that others don't have at all. Don't suppose the club will mind the money neither. Quote

I am down south over Christmas so boxing day wouldn't have been a possibility. I see that some people might no long be able to attend, but surely still a huge crowd to expect, 24,000+ ? We had 22,000 for a regular game vs Sheff weds It wasn't on TV though, its bound to put some off. I'm sure we'll get a great crowd (if our form improves!) but normally the biggest crowds are Boxing Day all other things being equal, and TV reduces it further.

Traf Posted November 1, 2022 Posted November 1, 2022 TV money plus a smaller police bill will cover any losses of ticket sales re: Derby. Quote

tomski Posted November 1, 2022 Posted November 1, 2022 Disappointed. Not as much as I probably should be. Will find an alternative and enjoy. Quote

Traf Posted November 1, 2022 Posted November 1, 2022 I'll be at all three, irrespective of any disappointment I may have. I won't be at Fleetwood, nor at the Friday night Brizzl game, though. Quote

radcliffe white Posted November 3, 2022 Posted November 3, 2022 I don’t think the club will see a dip in attendance from this, providing no strikes it’s much better for transport Quote

Johnnyrotten Posted November 3, 2022 Posted November 3, 2022 No surprise Bolton v Derby is on Sky, assuming they have to show a minimum number of L1 games. If it had been scheduled for a Saturday, we'd be looking at a Sunday 12pm or Friday or Monday night. Plymouth have already had 2 home games moved to those times, they are much worse. We've got off lightly, how many rescheduled TV games get to KO at 3pm? (no consolation if you can't make the new date but that applies to any TV game). Quote
peebles Posted November 3, 2022 Posted November 3, 2022 22k as of now, 23k with a bit of form I'd say. Don't see a big difference playing 27th really (personal circumstances allowing of course) Quote
gonzo Posted November 3, 2022 Author Posted November 3, 2022 Who in Christ's name will watch this game apart from a smattering of Bolton fans and a few more Derby?! Bet they struggle to break 100k viewers. Â Quote
