As much as possible the Saints have maintained the club's tradition of kicking off at 3pm on a Saturday afternoon. At the moment there are just two exceptions - the match against Harlequins on November 21st kicks off at 1pm while the visit of Leicester Tigers on February 27th will begin at 2pm.

Both of these amendments are to allow supporters to watch both the Saints as well as England internationals scheduled for the same day.

The New Year fixture against London Irish will be played at 3pm on Saturday, January 2nd, while the Saints will visit Worcester a week earlier, on Boxing Day.

Other noteworthy away trips are those to Newcastle (November 27th) and Sale (March 5th), both of which have been scheduled for Friday evenings.
