Why Fulham vs Manchester United is a 7pm kick-off today?
Briefly

The match between Fulham and Manchester United has been moved to a 7pm Sunday kick-off due to United's Europa League involvement, conflicting with scheduled Sky Sports fixtures. This alteration has drawn significant criticism from the Football Supporters' Association (FSA), who highlighted the difficulties faced by fans with limited transport options and family constraints on a Sunday evening. The FSA also raised concerns about the Premier League allowing broadcasters to make 'conditional picks' that can lead to frequent rescheduling, thereby prioritizing broadcasting schedules over fan convenience.
The Sunday evening kick-off slot is really unpopular with match-goers as public transport options are limited and it's no good for families with young kids.
A big part of the problem is allowing broadcasters to choose conditional picks which are then moved when a team progresses in Europe.
