Hate what the game has become. Over coached, slow for the sake of it football and now they're coming for the 3pm kick offs. The powers that be really risk alienating the fans and future generations

For supporters who travel a distance to home matches it's becoming less attractive.

And there’s plenty of them from all over the country, and by that I mean the UK.

So there are more televised games which means that more fans that always go to games will think twice and stay home especially if its cold,wet,damp and dark in the winter months. Like the 3pm kick off away at Burnley on a Sunday...its a long way on a Saturday with a Sunday to recover....that will put fans off travelling less backing for the players....money wins sod the fans...

Season ticket sales are down this season, they will be virtually non existant next season as people pick and choose their games. If the product is poor they will choose less, or none at all, you can always turn the tv off. Possibly another reason Swansea Football LLC might be looking to offload.

We have had one game so far changed from 3pm, first 11 out of 13 home games are at 3pm!! And one of the other two is a midweek game!!! It's actually the 13th game which is 1230 Saturday v WBA in January.

Sunday 3pm whats the difference with Saturday 3pm? Most people will be able to do their same routine just 24 hours later. I'd say it's better than 1230 Saturday for a lot of people.

Okay we have 4 Sundays not Saturdays, one is 29th December which was always scheduled, but the other 3 are Cardiff, Bristol and Leeds. Two of those games we expected to be moved and the third is a not a surprise.

It's good to see a Bale supporter posting on a Swansea City board commenting supporters travelling away.

Attendances, people, work/life balance, consideration for the thousands who travel home and away. They are things of the past.

As stated on the other thread, it is all about money. Nothing more.

Do you prefer 1230 Saturday for Cardiff & Bristol City as last season or the new 1500 Sunday we have for both this season?

I don't mind either one to be honest, but Bristol City being 1500 Sunday has allowed me to go to an event on the Saturday I'd otherwise miss.

I can do the exact same routine on a Sunday 3pm as I can for Saturday 3pm. No doubt those who play football early on a Saturday or Sunday are happy too.

I know I am not a selfish person. Just saying it is not all doom and gloom.

So when do you want the games?

- All Saturday 3pm with nothing on TV so we don't get any coverage like in the 60s
- All Saturday 3pm on TV leading to the non league clubs suffering from falling attendances, clubhouses going under and the clubs die, making communities isolated.

I’m selfish .
I also want the best for my club .
Right now,all that bothers me are these pitiful owners and the staggering lack of foresight and guile in a multi million pound business .
This is about us and our club

Selfish we should be

Poll: Christmas. Enjoyable or not

Of course the Swans consider finances first, and these latest TV deals are paramount to a club existing in a tough Championship. Preference ? Everybody loves a Saturday 3pm kick off surely ? Attendances will fall no doubt as many fans travel from outside of Wales and the tv option will determine if they do or not.

We are being led by finances, that’s the first priority, that was the point. It’s the way it is these days.

Does anyone know if the Boro match on Sky Sports Plus will definitely be available in pubs with Sky?

All first round of championship matches kick off the same time and are available live on Sky Plus. All Sky Plus matches can be shown live in pubs providing they have a sky contract and suitable equipment.

So yes.

Long term I can see 12.30 Saturday kick offs being the norm with all matches streamed.
