Who decided on the shite scheduling this year. The choice of games today are appalling for Boxing Day.

What do you mean? Liverpool and man utd are on, irrelevant vs who, sky have ticked their box 

And FWIW I think our game could pull a decent audience, not sure what specials are on the normal channels but I'd have thought a lot of people would want to watch the man utd car crash vs seeing if we're the real deal or not

More the point, I may totally have egg on my face by the end of the day but Newcastle Vs Forest seems like a home banker, Liverpool should be comfortable Vs Burnley then you have two matches at 3pm which are hardly of much interest. 

Our game should be a good one but all the better fixtures are spread across the week. 

[villa4europe]

They should have put Luton vs sheff utd on but I wouldn't be surprised if they're 2 of the lowest draws in the league 

Today's games are all about the numbers 

It is surprising the magic fixture machine didn't kick out another big game though, Liverpool vs arsenal before Christmas, should have bookended it with say man city vs Chelsea

A few on Prime including the Villa today remember guys.

That's what Boxing Day has become really. Long gone are all 10 fixtures being played on the day and doubt that will happen again unless it's on a Thursday and they want to still play a Saturday or Sunday fixture list.

Of course scheduling Wolves-Chelsea for xmas eve meant two further fixtures had to be moved to tomorrow but I wouldn't say Chelsea-Palace or Brentford-Wolves would've been more exciting picks than what has been selected today.

Given Toons recent form, I think Forest has every chance here.

Decent penalty shouts for them already being instantly dismissed.

[MachoFantastico]

I know I've said this before, but I love Amazon's Stadium FX feature. Don't have to listen to the irritating commentary and just take in the atmosphere. Shame Amazon have pretty much given up on Premiership coverage. 

[MachoFantastico]

Forest trying to play out from the back really isn't working. 

[VillaAlex]

Forest are dreadful no way are Newcastle not winning this.

Only Gibbs White is showing anything of quality. 

[VillaAlex]

Soft penalty.
