    Is the Derby game on the Tuesday or on the 21st? It can't be both... 

    Wed 21 January 19:45

    According to Derby's website, although they now have a game scheduled for Friday 23rd, so don't be surprised if we play them on Tuesday 20th
    It was originally on Wednesday 21st January, meant to be our only Wednesday fixture this season. However, since their fixture against West Brom is now on Friday evening it’s been moved back to the Tuesday. 
    Someone should tell our media team as it's still showing as the 21st.

    Saturday 3pm to the next Saturday at 12:30 is within 7 x 24 hours periods, yes, but it’s eight days, so I think the pedantry is with you to insist that it’s one week.

    If we count Saturday - midweek- Saturday as 3 games in a week then it gets absurd because one game can then be counted as being a part of either week to suit your argument.

    So with midweek games all month, you get this:

    1st -8th = 3 games
    8-15th = 3 games
    15th- 22nd= 3 games
    22nd-29th = 3 games

    How many have been played? 12? No, it’s only 9.

    A true 3 game week:

    Friday, December 26th: Norwich City (a) - KO 3pm GMT

    Monday, December 29th: Portsmouth (a) - KO 7.45pm GMT

    Thursday, January 1st: Coventry City (h) - KO 3pm GMT


    Because a week does in fact consist of 7, not 8 days as everyone on CL seems to think nowadays.
    It's not a CL thing though, is it? For as long as I can remember managers, players, and fans, have talked about Saturday to Saturday being a week of football. For example, win Sat-Tues-Sat and you've picked up 9 points this week. 
    Not true. People used to say ’over an eight day period’. Maybe I remember further back to pre- social media bollox.

    Or maybe instead of things being “bollox” the world changes and evolves, including language

    I also remember before then, and football people still used a football week as Saturday to Saturday. No idea why you're blaming social media.

    Pardon my ignorance, but if a match is on Sky Sports+, might it be shown in a pub?

    If you can convince the pub staff then I can’t see why not

    They have changed it from Tuesday the 21st to Wednesday the 21st, presumably following my e-mail to them pointing it out - which they have not replied to, BTW...

    You know you’re on Charlton life when there’s an argument as to what constitutes a week.

    • Selections for matches scheduled after the first weekend in March will be announced on a four-week rolling basis starting from February 1 (e.g. a selection for the first weekend in April will be selected in the first weekend in March).

    A few ifs but should us and Pompey both lose at the weekend and Stoke win then there's the likelihood that we'll play Pompey on the 14th Feb.... But will it still be on TV as selected?

    I can't find an answer so anyone got a clue?

    I very very much doubt it. Just because it was televised before doesn't mean that it will/should be televised when it is finally replayed.

    I am 90% sure that when a game is televised, it stays televised if moved which means they will have to avoid the blackout

    Anyone have any idea when they will announce the next load of annoying 1230 kick offs? I thought it was yesterday they were gonna announce it.

      That is so shit announcing them one week at a time. I bet they change the Oxford game to 12.30

      Everyone loves 3pm kick offs bit sad that all these get moved to 12.30 constantly hopefully they review the 3pm blackout and we can get back to more 3pm games one day

      The odd 12.30 game is fine, but we have way too many and it just takes the fun out of going.

      I think I prefer them. Get the whole afternoon to drown your sorrows.

      Ooh, Salford again. It is difficult to imagine there is not some degree of corruption going on there.

      I really hated them at the start of the season but now I've really come round to them and actually quite like them - less hanging around beforehand and plenty of time after to celebrate/drown sorrows after
