Police change Cardiff fixture

Last updated : 07 October 2003 By Tony Scholes

At the request of the police, or should we say on police orders, the match has been brought forward two hours and will now kick off at 1:00 p.m. rather than the scheduled 3:00 p.m.

This is exactly what they did for our last home match of last season against Sheffield Wednesday when they gave safety as the reason. At that time both clubs spoke out against the decision but were unable to do anything about it.

It looks pretty clear that Burnley Football Club are not happy with this decision either and although they have not said as such they have issued an apology to supporters who may be inconvenienced by this.
