Don't know, but I'd guess the police have asked for it.
12 noon
Maybe it's to prevent the Man U fans meeting up with the Arsenal and Chelsea fans as they all make their way home........







I'm here all week.
confirmed it is 12' o'clock KO.
Had a hunt round the web and not sure why it is early kick off.

Some people say it is so it can be shown in Asia / Australia on TV live at a reasonable time, so maybe that is it.
so rooney can get home in time for beddy bobos.....
A theory from Answers.com:

I think it is because of the same reason Everton and Liverpool played early; to give people less time to drink, therefore there won't be as much trouble during the game. I think they did this specifically with Everton and Man U because of the hate from the Everton supporters towards Wayne Rooney.
Just found out it is live on ESPN3 TV channel which is USA based I think.

Also on their web based WatchESPN channel.

Wouldn't be anything to do with Everton's sponsors being Chang Beer and the large S.E. Asian market that will be watching?

Just a wild theory!
>>>Wouldn't be anything to do with Everton's sponsors being Chang Beer and the large S.E. Asian market that will be watching?

And they are playing Man U who are a huge draw in East Asia.

So it is sod the English fans, lets have matches at all sorts of times to keep the other countries happy.

We will be having matches at 3 o clock in the morning soon, so it can be shown at a reasonable time in Asia or the USA.
That's right VHG, it hasn't been about the fans for the last 20 years, it's all about the money.
VHG - no one is saying sod the English fans. You can always check here

-- answer removed --
Our game against the Dingles kicked off at 12 noon on a Sunday 2 weeks ago because the Police wanted the match played then,nothing to do with it being on telly.
Mind you we're playing Liverpool tomorrow (5-30 kick off) at our place...All those Man U fans heading back to the Home Counties can share a train with the Scousers :-)
Lunchtime KO is the norm for these games, nothing to do with the Far East or anywhere else as the Police insist on early starts to try and avoid the trouble which arises especially when Fans get boozed up in the Pubs before hand
so they could show the chelsea arsenal match....
