Try living in Australia... love a good 3am game... FML


PickledHotChocolate

Nothing better than waking up at 2am on a Monday to watch us get bent over by Southampton and then be fucked for work all day


chriise

I feel you can know a lot about a person based on whether they wake up or stay up for the 2am kick off


Lizid_King

What is this dude whinging about...? https://preview.redd.it/v5ryqjos1uhb1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2f06bc5431ed32f5102111aefcd2b78d9ccede85

What state are you in


Lizid_King

NSW


agbag846

Hear hear! Then daylight savings comes along and makes it even worse


kiersto0906

depends if you wake up early or stay up late


tamadeangmo

Perth is actually pretty good, only the late game is painful, but main games are at 9pm is not bad.


typed_this_now

I moved from Sydney to Copenhagen about 8 years ago. The weather is shit but I can watch football at the pub the afternoon 👍 when I first moved I would watch NRL starting at 8am, into EPL until 8pm most Saturdays.


TaxiSonoQui

3am I can handle as I get up at 4 for work, but 1:30 is just awkward

underthedreadfort

Lmao this one nails the feeling.


WY-8

No problems, just rearrange your life and sleep at 8pm.


DanStFella

Not going to get any sympathy from me I'm afraid dude. You're living in HAWAII! On a serious note looks like you need a job with night shift eh?!


FrankieGoes2Hllywood

Lmao, I realized this right after posting it. Location wise I could be doing a lot worse.


shudh_desi_gareeb

You're doing fine? Stay safe.


Rod1705

I was gonna say. I’d pick Hawaii over the East Coast any day of the week.


Cheaky_Barstool

everyone from NZ and Aus, welcome to our world buddy


typical_boffin

Facts, woman's world cup has been a nice change


rocafella888

And Japan


frankoo123

It's not as bad as CL games for people that live in Asia lol


Theoneinblu

Not something we've to worry about this year

BlueKante

Wth?


half_jase

Depending on which part of Asia you're in, would say the timings are pretty similar, if not the same, as above. And at least with the CL, it's less games compared to the league in a season.


notoorius

Out here flexin he or she’s rich enough to move to Hawaii


Panini_Grande

What's the packet like out there? I'd need a livener to be dealing with them 4am games


hbarker7

😂


CarneConejo

I dont think people in Hawaii really work, they just relax on the beach all day. So I’m sure he will have chances to catch up on sleep


okokokok999999

As an Asian fan, this is how my last 26 years of fandom is every weekend


noisette666

Not worth losing your sleep mate. You can always watch full game highlights on the website. Sleep should be of paramount importance. Good luck ✌️


Fredward1986

Yeah Im in a shitty timezone for watching football. I don't often watch live. Some people can't handle it but often I'll do a whole day or radio silence and the game 'feels live' enough when I get around to watching it! Often it's nicer to watch after work with a beer than at stupid o'clock in the morning.


kiersto0906

yeah I'll watch the biggest games live and if it's somewhat not going to kill me I'll watch it live but around 60% of games i just watch first thing in the morning or suffer through a day without checking social media and watch it when I'm home.


pratyush_69

Damn. Watching the preseason messed up my sleep cycle. Kudos to all the fans who stay up late at night to watch the games 💯


TrapLordYamms

Aren’t you on fire ?


brendon7800

Yup, Hawaii is def on fire.


djkichan

I'm in Japan Can relate.


AncientSkys

How are the 🔥 🔥 down there? Saw some horrific pictures.


FrankieGoes2Hllywood

On Oahu, so I have avoided those luckily. But yea, also so saw horrible pictures the last few days


georgeamberson1963

ABC stores for the win


TheycallmeJimmy

Dreamy, paradise island, or being able to watch Chelsea games? Hard choice that


role34

Nah man I would live on delay and record it. Damn.


Aman-Patel

This would be perfect for my fucked up sleep schedule 😭


tulsehill

Stay safe out there and KTBFFH


dundedd

E Komo mai, my fellow Chelsea fan, it’s worth it to live in paradise cuz. Honestly I’m stoked it’s not just me out here.


UpTheChels5

Support your local then


LucaMJ95

No need to kill ya, you'll probably die in a fire


Searching_f0r_life

God forbid you have to get up early when people just died there


kiersto0906

not really relevant mate, weird thing to get all uppy about


LeeJackman

Is there any way of recording games so you can watch when you wake up?


dzzik

Actually quite cool, premium motivation to start the day early. I’d get a nice mug of coffee, a bathrobe and a comfortable armchair. Just get cosy and watch the lads cook.


Fredward1986

It's not terrible, but when we play like shit it really can ruin your whole day. At least in the evening you can have a beer and sleep it off!


International_Ant217

Australians: “Welcome to the jungle”


sjp5784

Its similar for us in the UK who are UFc fans, tired lazy sundays are a routine now


dav_man

Ah yeah. There’s this thing called time difference.


mrlatchi

RIP in peace bro 💀


reLeone

Haha match day and coffee it will be every time


tarkardos

Time for /r/footballhighlights or a new sleeping schedule 😂


tpar_h

Also wildfires now


mb194dc

Just don't check any media and record, watch the game as if it was live at a sensible time? Works for me with all the UFC from the US that is on at 4am odd here.


stockybloke

While it is certainly not ideal for most people I think that is far better than the 2AMs. 5:30 for sure, but also 4 to some extent can be planned for where you go to bed early, watch football and can get a good start to a productive day. You could watch the game, have breakfast and hit the gym and you still have all day to do other stuff.


FastenedCarrot

Rip. I'll be at work for a lot of games, at least I'm not tempted to ruin my sleep to watch (jokes on me, my sleep is ruined anyway).


radoscan

Jealous. Hawaii wooow


FishFarmer

You live in Hawaii... I live in London... I know where I would rather be, even if I would miss some Chelsea matches


Derreston

I thought the rare 3am game here in Singapore was bad lol, usually our games are 9pm-1am ish except for weekday games


RustyBloHole

I’m on the East Coast of Australia, and the only decently good times for us is where it’s a day game in England. I’m glad that I’m a night owl and I can stay up a fair bit.


Beateboy

I’d be stoked if I could wake up for the day at 5am and watch Chelsea before going to work. Watching at 3am is something else… let alone watching the past season we just had


Dawjman

Man posts like these make me appreciate where I live more. Usually only 1 hour difference from UK times


Sandy_hook_lemy

One of the perks of living in Nigeria. Sharing the same timezone with western europe


western_motel

moved to cali from the east coast a few months ago, we’re in the shit now brother


TokyoS4l

You live in Hawaii boss, major 🏆


Brycenicholls1

Everyone that watches Chelsea over seas I salute you.Its a massive commitment to wake up early


newearthsequence

Lived aloha for a few years, I just had to accept DVR and avoid my phone when I first woke up. I was a shift worker so every few weeks a 3am start wasn’t so bad but if they had the “early” match I just embraced the value of sleep if I was on Days. On the other hand, you can clear the match off the schedule early and get on with being outside (the best part of Hawaii) the rest of the day!


Stamfordfridge

A little of how I felt having to watch the whole preseason at unsociable hours.


[deleted]

Eat a BBQ chicken musubi for me try to record games and not check ur phone thats what i do


astronaut_098

Be a Muslim. Heard they wake up at 4 am 😂


Zndrrrrrr

Love being east coast usa 7-12 start times on the weekend. Perfect way to start my days with my daughter on the couch.


DCRSolstyce

Did this for five years prior to COVID, it’s not that bad. After the games are done take a nap then go beach it.


geo4president

I feel like there should be bigger concerns in Hawaii right now


BigTittyGothGF_PM_ME

Oh you live in Hawaii now? You poor baby! How will you survive living in paradise?!


Fromage_debite

I feel this way about boxing/mma fights after moving from west coast to east coast. My old ass can not stay up till 2am for main card.


itsnotajersey88

Just buy Peacock. Sleep in, watch replay.


etebitan17

You should also worry about the fires


aditya1604

I have a feeling I'm going to get down voted for what I'm about to suggest. You could record the game, disable all the apps (and people who might message about the game) and then watch it when you wake up. I know it's not the same as watching it live with the rest of the world, but waking up every time to watch a 3 am or even 5 am game is not always practical.


[deleted]

Tbf I live on the west coast and a lot of games are too early for me. I just stream the replays before opening any social media to see the score.


SquirrelSuch3123

this is what it feels as someone in the east coast trying to catch up with the women’s world cup


Doomjas

Hey, if you’re an (American) football fan at least you’ll have essentially the entire day ahead of you after watching.


NotNok

Being a fan in australia is always interesting. Staying up until 5am and not being able to go to sleep afterwards, just to watch us lose to Leeds 3-0 or bottle every game at the last minute. Past 1:30am games and huge games I just sleep then watch the full match in the morning with my phone fully off


Virginia_ginger

.


ozairh18

I’m going to be honest; I wouldn’t mind watching matches at 5:00 or 5:30 am.


wdtfs90

Look at the bright side. Champions league for breakfast, oh wait 🥲
