12.45 I always miss if going to a 3pm game and generally miss it more than I do any other kick-off time.

I would not be surprised to see SKY move their 30 SPL and 5 Rangers games to Saturday lunch time to deliberately clash with BT's English games. It would certainly help BT Sports look less attractive north of the border. Rangers are my team. I don't care if it's Man United Vs. Man City or Chelsea Vs. Arsenal, if Rangers are playing the likes of Stenhousemuir or Forfar at the same time I'll watch my team. Surely all football fans would prefer to watch their own team ahead of someone else?

Chelsea 3 - 5 Arsenal is about the only great game I can remember at a 12.45pm kick-off.
Though given BT will have 18 first picks. Expect to see a few more che-ars, city-utd, liv-eve etc... in that slot.

My sympathies lie that way, light blue
And i watch all the games on tv at weekend (my main hobby), but 12:45 game always seems too early, and rarely is the game exciting (perhaps because it is the first game)

Or because it's crap teams. They're awful to go to also, worst time of the day.
I keep missing decent games, Newcastle-Sunderland the other week as was going to Wembley for semi-final.
This weekend, Villa - Che is in that 12.45pm slot.
"Super" Sunday last week was awful. 0-0 and 0-1, plus that 1-1 from QPR v ARS, and the 1-1 Stoke -Sun which I didn't watch fully. 5 goals in 4 games. dire.

Sky do a great job hyping the Premiership. There are 4 or 5 fantastic sides, 4 or 5 good sides but a lot of dross underneath that. Sorry Mods realise that is nothing to do with coming soon.

This season has been awful.
United have been functional.
City have been poor compared to last season and a bit boring.
Chelsea their usual mid-season disarray.
Arsenal and Spurs both have their usual mediocre spells.
You have Liverpool and Everton boring their way to 7/8th.
Then the rest of the league is dire and just one great big scrap to avoid relegation.

Me too, Season ticket holder for 16 years, this season has been as boring as the Pearce era. So narrow.
Yes now Fergie has gone, there will be freshness about next year, and personally, hopefully an end to the abusing of referees.
Just need to get rid of Hansen and co.

The quality of the Premiership this season has been very mediocre, the performances of all the premiership sides in the the Champions league bears this out. I believe it the worst showing of Premiership sides in the Champions league for some time.
