Blackburn away League game

[Gunga Din]

we are due to play Fulham at home on the 17th, so i think this would be highly unlikely.

Have a read of this and see what you think mate ok. I'm asking the question at the AGM that's unless you want to instead?

There's a thread about it on RAWK, trying to organise a boycott.

I'll have a read - not sure if I will be at the AGM. Very much depends on when it is!

I can't see the problem. We can play the match on Good Friday.

i was replying to Wills point on moving it to a sunday. Friday would be the best option, or even move the kickoff to 11am on the saturday and allow fans to get back to the memorial. i dont think a boycott, as is being suggested on RAWK would work, simply because other fans would go in place of the ones who are boycotting.

Going on a reply Brendan got from someone at the Communications Department of the Premier League, it seems that they will try to hold the fixture on another date.

However, as we learned with the CL qualification fiasco, what someone in the Communications Department says can be very deffierent from senior officials.

Arranging a boycott now would be a stupid idea. A collective protest ( or request ) now would carry far much more weight and might get the fixture moved.

I can pass any requests on to the Lancashire Evening Telegraph if that's of use

[Gunga Din]

i personally cant think of any reason why it cant be moved till teh friday. its good friday, most people will be off work anyway

Best idea is to wrote to Blackburn, Parry and the Premier League expressing your reservations.

I have just sent off a letter to Parry as well

The Fulham game will propably be moved, because we are playing in the semis in CL on the 18th or 19th of april. But i hope there can be a way to move the game to Good Friday.

Am sure we could play on Good Friday, wasn't that the date of the Gary Mac derby?

[Sara]

That was Easter Monday night I reckon

[Guest rookie]

I think we had Leeds at home on the Good Friday, then Goodison on Easter Monday

 

We have played on Good Friday on many occasions

 

Arsenal away (in 2004) as well
