Can't understand why the fixture committee have left the final fixture to a the derby as would have been much better before the end but as we play them on the obligatory good Friday fixture and at the MM then it doesn't leave much option.
Agree about the St's game at 12.30pm on a Saturday being a pretty crap time and its one even football fans aren't keen on but it may prove popular being so early in the season. To be honest can't say I'm liking the number of Saturday afternoon games. I think for families in particular its more of a negative than a positive as with so many things that families do on weekends Saturday fixtures really do through spanners in that and I can see some still attending the games regularly and some picking and choosing.
I know its all down to personal preference etc when it comes to game times but for me I've been a regular of the old Sunday afternoon format in the good old days but I actually preferred the Friday night games as they seemed to have a bit more atmosphere for me and seemed more enjoyable and it then left the weekend free. Thursday night games are a pain with the kids as they never want to get up for school the following morning.
It would be interesting to know from AP the reasoning behind the move to more Saturday afternoon games.'"
Sadly we fall in that category and thankfully didn't get a pass this year as the Saturday timing doesn't work at all for us.
Attendances have been stagnant for some time though so the club are well placed to shake things up schedule-wise and lets be honest right now it's the nature of the performances that are keeping those on the fence away as much as anything else.
Cas away should be tasty as long as we get off to a good start.
