Redarmy987 Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 A Swindon fan mate of mine reckons it will be off! He reckons sky wanted the game on the Friday night but Swindon declined! Not sure if true but it's what I've been told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

View from the Dolman Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Brad Smith has been recalled from his loan at Swindon by Liverpool so they might now only have 2 international call-ups which wouldn't be enough to get the game postponed.

Is that what the guidelines say? You have to have 3 first team players involved in internationals to be eligible for postponing games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

View from the Dolman Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Is that what the guidelines say? You have to have 3 first team players involved in internationals to be eligible for postponing games? Yep, it's 3 call ups to get a game postponed. Can't find the relevant rules/regs at the moment but an example report from earlier this season says that's the case (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/28878460) There's a possibility it could still happen if they get one more call up beyond the two anticipated (Louis Thompson for Wales perhaps?).

Carey 6 Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Anybody think the 3 players to get it called off is wrong? I think it should be 4/5. Squads are there for a reason. If Burns, Williams and Cunningham got called up for us I'm sure we could make do, and our squads probably one of the smaller ones in this league.

Enoch Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Really hope this isn't called off. Not sure if i would manage to get a ticket though as not a ST holder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'd be fine getting a ticket. A location will be fairly high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Burns, Williams and Cunningham got called up for us I'm sure we could make do, and our squads probably one of the smaller ones in this league. To be fair, Burns and Cunningham both aren't starting at the moment so yes we could obviously make do. But if it was Freeman, Little and Smith, for example, getting call-ups I'm sure you'd think differently. Yes, realistically those players aren't going to get England call-ups but it could be that a sides 3 internationals are actually their key players as well. 3 sounds about right to me but I think a player has to have played a certain number of first team games to be eligible. Someone like Burns getting an u-21 call up I'd say shouldn't count as he's not started a league game all season and only made a handful of sub appearances.

Stoke_Gifford_Red Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 I think you'd be fine getting a ticket. A location will be fairly high. According to the football ground guide we can get up to 3300 tickets. Whilst I expect it to go to general sale I expect we will sell out especially after taking 4000 to Coventry.

Rocky Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Some Swindon fans on twitter seem to think now that Liverpool lad has been recalled the game will go ahead. I HATE internationals games and breaks, club football is my main interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swindon fan Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Just a quick heads up for you. It now seems likely this game will now go ahead as planned. Liverpool have recalled Brad Smith so we will now not have the 3 players needed to call it off. Let the games begin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Burns, Williams and Cunningham got called up for us I'm sure we could make do, and our squads probably one of the smaller ones in this league. not at this level, especially when you consider the money or lack of it at this level. We may have a smaller squad, but a lot more quality. Scratch the surface at the likes of Swindon, and the quality deteriorates massively. Why should these teams be adversely affected for nurturing talent to a international level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
