Apologies if this has already been explained but why would we kick off at 8.45?

World cup?

Edit:-

BBC and Fishy times are normal 3.00 and 7.45 etc.

It's to do with the clocks going back. When they change at the end of the month, so will the kick-off times.

They're from after the last Saturday in October so I think it's because they would be 8.30/8.45 under BST but by then GMT, so it'll revert.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

It’s just the new OS being crap, but you’re not allowed to point that out.

With all of the office staff we’ve got, you would expect someone to notice.

Looking at train times for Wimbledon away on the 3rd Dec but think I’m right in saying England could play at 3pm on that day in the second round. Can’t get myself excited about this World Cup at all but don’t want to book train tickets only for the kick off time to move.

If England finish second in the group then that’s correct; they’ll play at 3pm on Saturday 3rd December. They should be winning the group, but please don’t take that advice that you should be booking your train tickets…

Isn’t that weekend also FA cup second round weekend? Usually is, so again, I’d probably hang fire on booking those tickets.

No. FA Cup 2nd Round is the week before.

And to back-up what others have said, hold off making concrete plans for AFC Wimbledon away. The decision will be made before we know whether Gareth Southgate’s England have scraped out of Group B in 2nd place.
