I am surprised its a 3 pm kickoff, I would have thought most people would have preferred a morning start. A nice crisp morning to clear the head from the night before, 3 pints (points) round a log fire after the game...... a few carols and home to lunch.......Merry Christmas. I wonder what the players would choose.

Brilliant and sensible news to have proper kick off time. I think some people forget that players are humans too and like a Christmas drink etc and you don't get the best out them at 11 or 12 KO's.

Shows how hard it is to be an adminstrator - can't please everyone. Personally, I always prefer 11.00 on Boxing Day otherwise the game breaks up the whole day. As it happens, I can't go at 3.00 this year but might have managed a morning game. We had no say in this btw, Hampton wanted 3.00 and as that is the default time both clubs would have to agree on any change.

Thing is, an 11am KO is more likely to fall foul of any cold snap.
And anyway, after Xmas Day with the folks, I find Boxing Day a nice break! ;D
