That rule re domestic games clashing with UEFA games is pathetic
 
So why are we moving a game because Arsenal are playing?? That makes no sense to me, haven't heard this pretty obviously stupid rule change

Nothing to do with clashing with a UEFA game.

Arsenal have a Europa game the previous week that means they play Thursday. Therefore their Saturday game against Burnley is moved to the Sunday which in turn means our Tuesday night game against Burnley needs to be moved to Wednesday. All about two day minimum between games.

Thanks for clarifying, i had read a comment elsewhere that painted a diferent picture so no problem with that move.

The big problem I do I have is that UEFA dont like domestic games clashing with televised european games unless uefa give special permission; man city fell foul of this last season
