Never to the dark side Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 With the Norwich game being SHAFTED to a Monday night,that leaves us with another BLANK Saturday just like last Saturday just gone So my thoughts are Bristol City should contact Portsmouth football club and see if the game which scheduled for Tuesday 8th March could be played on Friday night 11th March I think this would encourage football followers (from both teams) to attend the game with Saturday being a day off for most people(but not all) Bristol City will be struggling to attract football fans for the remainder of the season,so they should be doing as much as they can to increase attendances and revenue BE PRO-ACTIVE BRISTOL CITY, BE VERY VERY PRO-ACTIVE BRISTOL CITY.

Were locked in a massive relegation scrap, if we played on the Friday, that would give them TWO days to prepare for the Norwich game, baring in mind they will probally travel up on the Sunday. So that would be light training at best Saturday, and travel Sunday, game on Monday. That would be pretty crazy. As it stands now we can play Tuesday, day off Wednesday, train Thursday to Saturday........no rush and plenty of recovery time for the players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never to the dark side Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Understand what your saying BUT we played 1st January and 3rd January with two 3pm kick offs and 24 hours apart So play Friday night, travel midday Saturday, Saturday night and Sunday night stay overnight in Norwich travel back after the game just like I'll be doing on the Monday night Its not as if footballers work in the local nut and bolt factory or humping bags of coal around is it?

We looked absolutely knackered at QPR to. I fear we would be giving ourselves a massive disadvantage if we did this, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted February 3, 2011 Admin Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 So my thoughts are Bristol City should contact Portsmouth football club and see if the game which scheduled for Tuesday 8th March could be played on Friday night 11th March Nice idea, but Portstmouth are scheduled to play Middlesbrough on Saturday 12th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC_Red Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Nice idea, but Portstmouth are scheduled to play Middlesbrough on Saturday 12th quite. But then who actually expected this to be a sensible thought out idea anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
