When did we last play a fixture on a Thursday night?

[ZLB]

I’m going for Forest at home in April 2003. We won 1-0,Asaba scored. That was definitely a Thursday night.

Interesting use of the word ‘definitely’.

Utd 1 Forest 0 was Tuesday 15th April 2003.

We have never lost a Thursday night premier league match, ever.
Get thi sen down to Ladbrokes, easy moneh

 

[Bobby Boo]

We will be playing plenty of games on a Thursday next season in the Europa League

Fair enough. Hold my hands up. Could’ve sworn it was a Thursday night. I got the score & scorer right though!!

Think this one has everyone stumped!

A reminder:

The last time we played a home league game on a Thursday? (excluding boxing day and play-offs)

I have a hazy recollection of a game against Crewe, in the snow.

But that might have been a Friday now I think about it...

Yes Friday. 0-0, streets all around covered in ice but Sky rules. Jags went to centre back., Morgs (?) off injured

 

[FMBlade1]

What about New Years Day?

Haha fair point! (though no-one has said when a home Thursday game fell on New Year's)

I think we must be going back decades and decades if no-one has an answer?

What about Christmas day? We played Donny Rovers at home on a Thursday Christmas day 1952

 

[Rusty view]

Why are we playing Thursday?

To get ready for next season Europa League

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

9am kickoff?

You're thinking of that Sainsburies ad

 

[RossoDeltic]

Pretty sure League matches were on a Thursday many years ago for ITV, we went to Rotherham United. I can't remember if that was the game where we scored 5. That Coventry City match infamous for the tennis balls was a Thursday.

 

[CarlingBlade]

Im sure we played Man City at home on a Thursday, drew 1-1, probably 1997/98.

Not at home though

 

[DaleHillBlade]

Coventry away in the whistle game.

Blimey... did I enjoy Billy’s goal that night.

Blimey... did I enjoy Billy’s goal that night.

I watched it on TV. One of the most frustrating games I've ever witnessed.

That wasn't the original question though was it...

 

[DaleHillBlade]

I watched it on TV. One of the most frustrating games I've ever witnessed.

I was there, I live (and at that time worked) amongst SISU fans (increasingly hard to find these days, should be on the Endangered List) and had to put up with a lot of crap from them. It was a super-frustrating match and the atmosphere during that particular stoppage in play was unpleasant.

Play restarts...

Billy scores...

Bedlam in the Away End. Fucking great it was.

 

[FMBlade1]

That wasn't the original question though was it...

Would you like me to start a new thread with the updated question then?

We played Coventry away on a Thursday night, I think?

ahhh I remember that game very well !!
I was working nights at the timein a warehouse in Barnsley and used to get picked up by coach from the penny black at 10pm every night, I went to watch the full game in the penny black and as I walked in without realising I just automatically ordered a pint instead of a coke without thinking, one led to two which led to three and before I knew it I was watching the game with a load of manor blades, I told them my predicament of work and as I was explaining the coach pulled up outside we scored late on after the whistle stoppage and spirits were high among the manor blades, so high infact that when I went to the toilet I found myself followed in by all of them along with shots of whiskey and apple sours and told I wasn’t leaving until they were drunk,with slight hesitation I drank them little did I realise that another let’s say 2 surprises were waiting by the sink, after acknowledging their hospitality I left to get on the coach.... to work ! let’s say a hangover kicking in while still working at 7am isn’t nice, how I got through that shift is beyond me. 3 points and a memorable night to not forget though.

When did we last play a standard league match at home on a Thursday night?

When did we last play a standard league match at home on a Thursday night?

Now that’s easy. We’ve never played Standard Liege at home on any night of the week.

 

[Cerberus Blade]

I am afraid I can't make Thursday night games as it is hair washing night.

Sorry.

HH

Lather your leveret on a Thursday eh HH?

 

[John Street West Terrace]

Swindon playoff first leg in 2015 was on a Thursday.

Hope we turn in a better performance than that night !

 

[wavy-blade]
