| Xmas Day football 23:30 - Dec 22 with 1042 views | britferry | Have they missed a trick by not scheduling any games for this season? The argument against has always been the fans attending the games, especially the away ones. I expect there would be pretty decent viewing figures if there were 2 evening games on Friday. |  |

Too be honest ( and I love football ) but I'd agree with her. There's enough stress on that particular day without adding to it should we lose . |  |

| Xmas Day football on 09:48 - Dec 23 with 941 views | Scotia | I've always found it weird that there's NFL games on Christmas Day, but I suppose Christmas isn't as big deal in the states. My Mrs would go nuts if I put it on - and I sort of like my day of sport on Boxing day, I'd never get away with both. |  | |  |

Me too love boxing day especially when the Swans are playing at home. Same as other posters I'd struggle to get away (or really want to) watch football Xmas day. |  | |  |

It ended for most teams in the late 1950's, but the last football league match on Christmas day was 1965, and in Scotland 1976. |  |

Last away match by train on boxing was at Bristol Rovers in 1970. Football special in the days before they were stopped. Over 15,000 at eastville on a snow covered pitch. Nil nil draw. |  |
