Why clubs have to travel to Eastern Europe during a season is beyond me.. Why have group stages? The poor buggers have to play home and away. What was wrong with a simple knockout?

Dimmu Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 I prefer Euro games. So as we play in Championship, Fa cup is the shortest route there. Eurogames, league and cup would be the order if we were in PL, but not now. Think about it, Eastern Europe away games, should be fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TelTheRam Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 All this talk of 'tired' players, we need to 'rest' someone because we have a game in 3 days time, makes me laugh. Chris Froome's overall time for the Tour de France last year was just over 89 hours - that's equivalent to 60 games of football over 3 weeks.

He is also up against a pack of riders who are also on the tour... whereas teams have different fixtures, conditions and playing styles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can remember is fish and chips or Wimpy.. People are spoilt nowadays. Was hard to get fat then.. Footy in the park, running away from the kids in the next town, chasing after the kids in the next town. Happy days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travel, hours on court.. 5 hour matches and back the day after next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
