BS3_RED Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 As we are now out of the F A Cup, we have a free weekend on the 26th Jan. Would it not make some sense to bring a game forward from a future tuesday night game.As S****horpe are also out and we are due to play them away on Tue 12th feb, would it not make sense to now play them on our free Saturday.This would make it a lot easier for the fans but would also give the players a full week off instead of having to play Sheff Weds, Scunny and Palace in a week.

I'm dreading the Mall already... :noexpression: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhunter Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 This topic already put forward under "Charlton vs. City".My suggestion is to bring forward the Blackpool home game by 3 days as they too are out of the cup.Blackpool home on a Tuesday : 13500?Blackpool home on a Saturday: 14000? Only difference likely to be more travelling support on a Saturday.By then we will have played Colchester & Palace - if we win the first and avoid defeat in the tough away game then we could be top and anything less than 15k would be a poor turn out.

beau45 Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 If they are going to do this, when is it likely to be announced? I'm thinking of going away for the weekend, but don't want to miss a match! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke_Ciderhead Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Sounds like a great idea as many people wouldnt be able to make the Tuesday evening fixture...maybe do reduced rates for kids again too as Blackpool are hardly a big draw.

Guest DanC Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Yes I would be up for this. I'm sure Blackpool would rather come down here on a Saturday rather than on a Tuesday night. I'm guessing this game is on the Tuesday because of the fa cup being played on the Saturday.Personally I got work on the Tuesday night so would have to use a holiday day to go to this game. If it's on the Saturday I wouldn't need to lose a holiday day so I'm all for it being played on the Sat and save my holiday day for Man U away.
