Travel headache for Newcastle United fans as two Premier League fixtures are picked for TV

Two of Newcastle United's November Premier League fixtures, against Arsenal and Brighton, have been rearranged after the latest broadcasting schedule was revealed by the Premier League on Wednesday.

The changes to the fixture list has handed traveling supporters a headache.

The Magpies' fixtures against Brighton and Arsenal have been moved.

Newcastle's game against Brighton at the Amex stadium on Saturday, November 6, will now be played at 5:30pm, meaning it will be almost impossible for Toon fans planning on making the trip to the return on the same day.

It doesn't get much better later in the month as Steve Bruce's side will now kick off their fixture at the Emirates stadium at 12:30pm on Saturday, November 27, again making it extremely difficult for Toon supporters to make the near-600 mile return journey the same day.

Newcastle's remaining fixtures in November against Brentford has been unaffected and will kick-off at the original scheduled time of 3pm on Saturday, November 20.

Bruce's side are yet to win in the Premier League this season, having only accumulated two points from a possible 15 so far and they face newly promoted Watford at Vicarage Road this weekend.
