Speak for yourself B4, not every Derby fan lives 30 minutes from PP (or Burton) you know. its done me a right favour.

This is one time I can see sense in moving the kick off, they’re doing it for the consideration of fans/staff/players travelling to and from the game so they have every chance of getting home in good time to settle down and cheer on England in the World Cup quarter final. I appreciate not everyone will want to do that, but moving the kick off by an hour will help the majority who do, without causing major disruption to travelling fans like those occasions when a game is moved by hours or even days to accommodate tv coverage.

An hour less in the pub before the game, an hour more in the pub after! Suits me either way.

Considering the fans actually at the game, there’s a novelty ( see FA cup thread).

[Wistaston Ram]

It wouldn't bother me if winter games started at at 2pm on Saturdays. Might save on flood light costs (although the lights were on before 11.30am on Saturday!)

Hopefully there's no complacency, I'm sure Burton will particularly want to get something off us in the radio Derby Derby.

Good news its 2pm kick off.

All options open watch England game in Burton, Derby or at home.

We have a 100% losing record at the Pirelli in the league. 
 

We need to sort that out, but I anticipate a difficult tight game and wouldn’t be surprised if we drew.

Hey!
How about next time, they consider doing this World Cup stuff in the summer, when our clubs are taking a break?

Don’t really get the drama on this?

seen in Twitter people calling it appalling and shockingly short notice! Seems a bit ott.

i get if you’re at work until 2 maybe on Saturday is annoying? Otherwise not too sure of the issue!

I don't understand the need to change the kick off time for this one. The match would have finished over 2 hours before the England match is due to kick off, how many people at the Burton game wouldn't be able to get home in 2 hours.

Especially after the Derby v Wednesday match, with nearly 3x the crowd, was changed to a time which gave us only 30 minutes to get home, if England had played that afternoon.?

Players, managers, groundstaff, security staff, physios etc etc etc

Not just about the fans.

Perhaps it would be easier to have the World Cup outside of the normal football season, just a thought.

Couldn't resist, B4. Sometimes I think in song lyrics.
