I don't know why they bother with fixture lists dates anymore?

No sooner do people get excited about the release of the fixtures than they have to put all their holiday plans on hold.

Why because the bleeding TV companies then start carving up the list like some cake.

Season ticket holders have being complaining that they are going to miss matches as they are away on the new dates days.

Those tickets will then be passed on to recoup the cash paid out - God knows where they might end up?

I think the thing that bugs most people is the indifference clubs and the Premier League has to supporters who have shelled out hundreds of pounds in some cases thousands on tickets that they can use

So, for your information and to allow you to plan accordingly, here are Chelsea amended fixture dates to accommodate the vagaries of Sky and ESPN.
