    Serbia ko time

    The FAI state that the ko of the home game v Serbia will be 7.30pm on 24 May. Find it hard to believe that it will stay so, as it clashes with Eurovision, in Serbia.

    With that in mind, I wonder if RTS* will ask the FAI to bring forward the ko to an afternoon time, as unlike here, the Eurovision is a big event in Serbia, especially as they are hosting it, and if the two events clash, most of their viewers will choose the song contest over the match.

    *= Assuming RTS will be showing the game live.

    It's being shown on Sky, who are showing the Heineken Cup Final that afternoon, so to avoid a schedule conflict, and (more importantly) maximise the viewing figures, I reckon it'll be on at 7:30
    All goals, yellow and red cards tweeted in real time on mastodon, BlueSky and facebook

    Thought something along those lines as well, if it is on Sky what time does the heinken cup finish at ? maybe a 5.00 KO for Serbia game to avoid eurovision. If it was at 5.00 would get the Calcutta express there and back, but any later we have to arrange a lift down but more importantly back. Prefer to train it down TBH

    Cant imagine too many serb or irish fans being bothered abut a footie game clashing with 3 hours of euro-tripe eurovision drivel.
    ill probably tape dustins effort and erm the voting as well.
