Paul Rideout
Player Valuation: £40m
for me this is the second best fixture change. The Thursday night was going to be on a Tuesday night so no great change there... but it's more license to get bevvied up I guess - but all the Southerners will have to leave at 7am and before to get to their 'home' game and won't want to drink and stay over in Manchester. I think the atmosphere from 3 ends will be pin drop quiet until they score... which is a great opportunity.I love a 12.30 against a team who had a mid weak European fixture
The Spurs game is obviously the best change for us.
EDIT - this is wrt our chances as a team, not individuals who have had their plans effed up
