Only problem i can see with all games sunday is someone like portsmouth have to play someone up north it would be a hell of a treck for one day. Also most park/pub (what ever you want to call them) games are on sunday for the amature men amoung us. It's a good idea in theroy but i can't see it being implemented any time soon.

two words:

public transport

Public Transport is open on Sundays, the buses and trams are here, taxis also work on Sundays. Most people getting to football matches don't use public transport anyway, only trains really, which are also open and running Sundays, most people use cars, and with Sunday being the quietest day of the week, the motorways are never really sluggish on Sundays, so that's not a problem neither.

Public transport has nothing to do with any of this, even if public transport is closed in some areas during Sundays, then moving PL games to Sundays is more of a good idea, because they'd open on Sundays, and create more jobs/people can work on Sundays, thus earning more money.

And if you're talking about away fans, then almost all fans use coaches from their home stadium, and Minibus taxes and trains. So it really isn't a problem at all.

Just don't show televised matches. More stadiums packed out, better atmosphere. But really, who would go for that? If you televise all matches, no one will go. I live a good 1 and a half hour trip from SOL, why would I trek up north when I can flick the tele on in my own home?

Not once did I say public transport was closed - it is, however, very limited.

How is it? believe it or not this country has one of the best public transports in the world, it already coped with 95% of all football games being played on a Saturday, which makes your point even more invalid.

Oh my God. I mean this in the most loving way possible but how can you be as ignorant as this to the workings of public transport? On a Sunday everything is very limited public transport wise. Take for instance my local train station - weekdays and Saturdays, there's 2 trains every hour. On a Sunday, one train every two hours. It's the same everywhere for everything. It's a Sunday.

:rolleyes: That, my friend, makes your point invalid.

Did you read one of my above posts? maybe I should quote myself, for you:

Did you not read that part?

Yeah I'm sure the government is all for extra expenses :rolleyes:

It's a stupid idea when you get into the nitty gritty of it all.
