And, not being from these parts, why is Saturday KO a minute later than usual?
Theo touched on it earlier, ritchie.
Every match across the English Football League (EFL) this weekend, including those scheduled for 3:01 pm on Saturday 7 February 2026, is kicking off one minute later than usual to raise awareness for the Every Minute Matters campaign.
Why the 1-Minute Delay?
- The symbolic 60-second delay is a partnership between the EFL, Sky Bet, and the British Heart Foundation (BHF) designed to highlight the critical importance of speed when performing life-saving CPR.
- The Message: For every minute a person in cardiac arrest goes without CPR and defibrillation, their chance of survival decreases by 10%.
- The Goal: Coinciding with Heart Month in February, the campaign aims to encourage 500,000 people to learn CPR using the BHF’s free online tool, RevivR.
- Ambassador: The initiative is championed by Tom Lockyer, the former Luton Town captain who suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch in 2023.
