Televised clash
Date published: 18 January 2016
ATHLETIC’S upcoming game at Burton Albion has been moved back a day and will be broadcast live on Sky Sports.
The fixture, at the Pirelli Stadium, pits John Sheridan’s side against the Sky Bet League One leaders, and had been set for Good Friday, March 25. Instead it will be shown live on television on March 26 from 12.30pm. Athletic then have only one rest day before playing Chesterfield at home on Easter Monday.
Athletic have also been forced into a change for the game at Peterborough. Sheridan’s side had been due to head to London Road on January 30. Posh are involved in the fourth round of the FA Cup that weekend and their home clash with Athletic will now be played on February 9.
