LeMaquis Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Surely this will be absolute carnage? http://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/football/sheffield-wednesday/confusion-as-sheffield-wednesday-v-sheffield-united-derby-clash-moved-to-the-same-day-as-sheffield-10k-1-8657854 The date for the first Steel City derby of the season has been moved for TV purposes and will now clash with the Sheffield 10K. :loopy: Absolute carnage? The 10k will take place about 4 miles from Hillsborough and will have been over for about 2 hours before the match kick-off. Next carnage - man shops at Sainsbury's on the Moor as match kicks off at Bramall Lane and loaf gets squashed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassett one Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 the southyorkshire police think its okay and the scc think its okay and the 2 football clubs so what could go wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squiggs Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) Carnage? What, as in "the violent killing of a large number of people"? Blimey. Think I'll stop indoors then I'd more call it "a poor decision but one that will nevertheless cause minor disruption for a relatively short period". But that's what you get when you let money and Sky take over what used to be the working person's sport. They call the shots and anyone else (public, fans and police) can take a running jump if they don't like it Edited July 23, 2017 by Squiggs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cytine Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Football has sold it's soul to Sky and the TV companies so they will do as they are told. The old adage "He who pays the piper calls the tune" still applies today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zaci Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Ridiculous decision that should be reviewed and overturned. Think you're being a bit ambitious theretzijilstra, we all know Murdoch rules the roost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abbeyedges Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Carnage? Sky have insisted that the game us played on the Sunday. They will be keen to see the game kick off on time to fall in line with their worldwide schedules. Murdoch rules the roost. Let's hope the 10k doesn't cause any delays to fans arriving at the ground on time. There again it's a little far fetched to think that a game at Hillsborough could lead to carnage because the authorities didn't request a delay to kick off. Do we ever learn?

Well, I guess that having over two months of notice might help people to plan a route that will get them to the game on time. Anyone who gets caught out really doesn't deserve a ticket.

bluecanary Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 There are also likely to be large numbers of university students travelling to Sheffield that weekend, who will have no prior knowledge of either event.....
