<p>It's time to take a red pen to that fixtures list again. </p> <p>-Sigh- No sooner are fixture lists out these days that they are ripped apart and changed.</p>
<p>In addition to <a href="http://rokerreport.sbnation.com/2014/7/14/5897941/three-sunderland-games-moved-for-tv" target="_blank">the fixtures which have been moved for TV</a>, two further games now have new dates. The home game against <a href="https://royalbluemersey.sbnation.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Everton</a>, which was originally due to take place at 3.00pm on Saturday 8 November, has been moved to Sunday November 9 with a 1:30pm kick off due to the Toffees' Europa League involvement.</p>
<p>In addition, the visit of <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/soccer/epl/teams/queens-park-rangers" class="sbn-auto-link">Queens Park Rangers</a>, which was originally scheduled for Wednesday 11 February at 7.45pm will now be played 24 hours earlier on February 10, though no reason has been given.</p>
<p>We'll do our best to keep everything up-to-date, but also worth remembering a full list of <a href="https://rokerreport.sbnation.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Sunderland</a> AFC's 2014-15 pre-season and Premier League fixtures is available at <a href="http://www.safc.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1405514061439_18542">www.safc.com</a>.</p>

<p>The first batch of televised games for the new Premier League season has been announced, with three of Sunderland's games being selected for live coverage.</p> <p>Three of Sunderland's fixtures for the upcoming 2014-15 season have been selected for live coverage as Sky Sports and BT Sport announce their first batch of televised games.</p>
<p>Sunderland's first home game of the season has been moved, as we take on Louis van Gaal's new look Manchester United at the Stadium of Light. The fixture will now kick-off at 4pm on Sunday, August 24.</p>
<p>Our trip to Crystal Palace has been moved to Monday, November 3, with an 8pm kick-off time. Moving an already long trip to London to the Monday Night Football slot seems particularly inconsiderate of Sky Sports and is sure to prevent many supporters who were planning to attend from going.</p>
<p>Our final televised fixture is our home game against Chelsea on Saturday, November 29. With the kick-off against Gus Poyet's old side moving to 5.30pm.</p>
<p>All of the above games will be shown on Sky Sports, with BT Sport deciding once again, <a href="http://rokerreport.sbnation.com/2013/7/11/4513582/five-sunderland-matches-changed-for-tv">as they did last season</a>, to provide no reason for Sunderland fans to subscribe to their channel during the opening months of the season.</p>
