Blackpool at Home

[hig1988]

Along with 4 other prem fixtures is scheduled for a 3pm kick off on tuesday 28th december. Is this right?

This won't affect me but surely the majority of standard 9-5 workers will be at work that day? After 3 home games on tv in a row before this, can we expect yet another a very poor attendance for this game? Newcastle will be laughing as they have boxing day instead of this.

Public holiday according to this:

It's a Bank Holiday.

its a 7.45 kick off mate.

Xmas Day and Boxing Day fall on a Saturday and Sunday, so this is always what happens.

Um?

What day of the week is Christmas this year, and what day of the week is Boxing Day?

When do you think their respective Bank Holidays will actually be this year?
