Derby showdown switched

Thu, 02 Jul 11:03:38 2009

The first Steel City derby of the 2009/10 season will be played on a Friday night under floodlights at Bramall Lane.

Sheffield Wednesday's derby clash with arch-rivals Sheffield United, initially scheduled for Saturday, September 19, was earlier this week switched from a 3pm kick-off to 12.30pm at the request of police.

But the game has now been brought forward to Friday, September 18, with a 7.45pm kick-off, in order to accommodate Sky Sports, who will be screening the clash live.
