Why has Sunday (1 Viewer)

[japandy]

become more important for football than Saturday?

As a kid I would go to Highfield Rd or away and then just relax with my mates on Sunday. For me it's not about the religious side of things but I do feel in this urbanised world adults and children do not get time to just 'relax'.
As a kid in a large family we used to also get up early and drive to Wales. We'd take a picnic and I'd always throw up in Bala. To this day that name has me reaching for the sick bag. But it's memories. Do you think kids today will feel the same in 30 years?

Sunday matches are normally premiership matches so looks like cov will be playing on Saturday for years to come

You must be joking. Remember Fletcher's 3 year plan well Mr.Cov Joe has a two year plan to get us in premier.

It hasn't. Saturday is still the day for football for the majority of clubs in this country.

A couple of Premier League games are played on a Sunday and more when our clubs are involved in Europe but surely this is a good thing to give them the extra rest?

But would you say Sunday is more important than Saturday for football as was the question posed in the OP?

Not for me, probably because we play on Saturdays. When I was a bit younger before wrecking my knee I used to play Saturdays and Sundays, but the fact Saturday matches wee in the afternoon, Sundays were important to do things as a family in the afternoon.
