The disappointing defeat by Brighton was also possibly our last Saturday 3pm home kick-off of the season.
After this Saturday's fixture at Burnley, our four games in March are all at night.
We have two scheduled home league matches in April – against Everton and Fulham – both of which could move for TV – and then our final two home fixtures in May, West Ham, another which might get switched, and Crystal Palace, which is already on a Sunday.
The constant changing of fixtures – while an accepted downside of being in the Premier League – makes it harder for many people to get to games.
Those who live a distance from the Gtech, people with school-age children and others with different commitments end up missing matches which they would have been at otherwise.
I know we are not the only fans in this position, and I still enjoy being in the Premier League, but it changes the whole football-watching experience.
The Brighton game was only our fourth 3pm Saturday home match of the season out of 14 and it felt like a case of the old cliche of "after the Lord Mayor's show".
After our brilliant run of seven points from the games against Aston Villa,Newcastle and Arsenal – maybe it was inevitable that we would come a cropper against Brighton.
To be fair, they were sharper than us throughout and took their chances when they came. Despite a better second half, we were definitely not at our best.
The other worrying thing was seeing Aaron Hickey limping off after being the victim of a bad tackle. Given his injury record, and especially with the World Cup coming up, let's hope he isn't badly hurt.
At least we saw a Premier League record set, with James Milner becoming the competition's highest appearance-maker – something to remember the day by.
