JoetheRam Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 When we played them on Boxing Day during their promotion season, that was a Saturday. Wasn't that the home game though? Thought we played them on a Tuesday night away about the same time we've got them this year, 0-0 game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant get worse than away to Brighton/Cardiff on a tuesday night..... To be fair, they're better than recent years. There's always some games which will inevitably be a bit of a distance on a weeknight. Of the 4 you mentioned Reading ain't even that far and Leeds is a bank holiday Monday. 2 badly scheduled games out of 23 really isn't that bad.

Bris Vegas Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Really don't understand why they don't have regional weeknight games.. Surely if you take into account location you have: South Coast/South London: Brighton, Soton, Pompey, Palace, Millwall, West Ham West of London/Wales: Cardiff, Bristol City, Reading North of London/Midlands: Watford, Forest, Leicester, Derby, Brum, Coventry East Anglia: Ipswich, P'Boro Lancashire: Blackpool, Burnley Yorkshire/North: Barnsley, Hull, Leeds, Boro, Donny If you imagine 5-7 weeknight games a season why not group them to improve attendances? The Midlands, South Coast and Yorkshire take up the bulk.. But I'm sure it won't be disastrous for a West Midlands club ie. Brum or Perhaps Coventry to join in with The West of London teams.. Nor would it be disastrous if The Lancashire clubs join in with the yorkshire clubs.. The only ones that'll suffer is Ipswich and P'Boro, but it's only 2 hours or so to the Midlands or London from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is a lot of those are considered rivalries and the police probably wouldn't accept it. Millwall v West Ham Soton v Pompey Forest/Derby/Leicester v Forest/Derby/Leicester etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only problem is that it would require some one at the top level of the game actually giving a flying **** about the fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
