Notts County v Plymouth Argyle on Sky


PON_News

Notts County's home match against Plymouth Argyle, originally scheduled for 3pm Saturday 10th October, will now be televised live on Sky on Sunday 11th October, kick off - 2.30pm.

Notts fan and PON member, Julie Henshaw had this to say about the fixture change - "Why do Sky have to change K.O times?".

She then went on to say "I'd sooner have had Plymouth v Notts on tv, as its a long way to travel for supporters, cos being on the bench, I'll be at the home fixture anyway. But i guess it will be good for Plymouth fans who wont want to make the long journey to Nottingham on a Sunday".

This is on the weekend of a Premier League international break due to European Championship qualifying rounds being played.

International page manager of the Irish Magpies Dripsey3 said "Notts County on the telly. A rare treat indeed for those of us who live outside the UK".

He added "A chance to see for ourselves the attacking philosophy introduced by RM. Silky skills. Moving the ball at pace along the ground. I'm rubbing my hands with glee! Chances are this game against Plymouth will be a top of the table clash". Further adding "Both clubs have recruited wisely in the close season. Plymouth may lost Lewis Alessandra but they still have Reuben Reid. Jake Jervis will be returning to Meadow Lane. Graeme Carey is a fellow Irishman so it will be interesting to see how he does. All in all, it should be an exciting game with a fair few goals. Can't wait!"

Prior to the Notts game, Devon's other club, Exeter have their home fixture against Stevenage also televised by Sky, kick-off 12.15pm.

In the first 3 months of the new season Sky will be showing 36 Football League matches as part of a new 5 year deal.

The last encounter between Notts and Plymouth Argyle took place at Meadow Lane in 2010 when Notts won 2-0. Craig Westcarr scored the opening goal and then provided a pass for John Spencer to get a second.

 

This League One fixture was watched by 6333 fans.

It's nice to have the game scheduled to be shown so early, I do feel the Plymouth game would have had a certain appeal but at least we are at home. Hopefully another chance for Notts to tempt those at home back down to the lane.

COYP!

It brings more money into the club yes but the kick off times do get worse and worse julie I do agree there.

Will the people who sit behind the goal be required to move again. If so, it would be good to change the ticket without a special journey.
