But those people - especially the away fans - have bought tickets knowing that England could be playing a World Cup quarter final at 7pm on the same day.change it, there are plenty of people that travel more than an hour to attend the match, including away fans. We don't want our attendances / income harmed by people not attending. It does highlight how rediculous this mid-season world cup is though!
Completely agree .It's a 3pm kick off in 5 days time. Moving it now will inconvenience far more people than it benefits
The club might have numbers?It's a 3pm kick off in 5 days time. Moving it now will inconvenience far more people than it benefits.
Of course they have been thinking about it. I think all the Championship clubs were discussing it last week - I alerted the FSA Championship fans network that kick off changes could happen. Clubs will have been looking closely at fans thoughts on social media as well as the feedback that they have been receiving direct.The fact they've announced the pick up time for the new bus this weekend would suggest that they've not given much thought about moving it.
Well if MFC is reading this - DON'T CHANGE THE KICK OFF!Of course they have been thinking about it.

In which case they should have been in a position to have made a decision before today, and it would be a good idea to announce that at the earliest opportunity, even if it means there's no change to the existing kick-off time.Of course they have been thinking about it.

I meant they weren't minded towards changing it rather than them giving it no consideration.Of course they have been thinking about it.

They have been discussing it and weighing up all considerations.I can't imagine Boro doing things to help fans that don't live in the area. Go **** yourselves you should live local would be more in keeping.
However it would be daft to change things at this late hour. The ones who travel furthest will already have made arrangements based on the existing times. Lots will have bought train tickets which are non refundable and will cost £100 or so to buy a new one.
*probably*They have been discussing it and weighing up all considerations.
It seems the Luton fans who've replied are not happy that the kickoff time hasn't been changed. Apparently, they're not happy with the clash with England (ie they'd be travelling home when it's taking place) As it's a hassle for them to get to Teesside any other time on Saturday, I presume they wanted a postponement!
Nothing from our club, of course.
Not probably*probably*
