TBH, I'm surprised it didn't happen years ago, especially with German, Italian and Spanish games on TV at that time. So, you know there will be times when we'll have PL kick-offs at 8pm Friday, lunchtime Saturday, 3pm Saturday, 5:30pm Saturday, 7:45pm Saturday, 12:30pm Sunday, 2:30pm Sunday, 4:30pm Sunday, 8pm Monday, meaning a maximum of 2 games at 3pm on a Saturday. I wouldn't be surprised if the auction after that offers every single Premier League game and there will be weekends with no kick offs at 3pm on a Saturday. Thursday 8pm and Sunday 7:45pm kick-offs will make it possible.
I know the dream is to reach the Premier League, but it's much easier to support your club at League 1 or 2 level, even if it is deemed expensive by a lot of people.
