Good idea at Ilkeston

Post by STAGMAN »

They are to play their midweek games on a Monday night to avoid clashing with big tv games etc, would this be possible for ourselves and if so would this help some of the gates at the evening games ?

I honestly don't think it would make that much of a difference to our midweek attendances. The players would also only get one day off between games, assuming they play on the Saturday, and for us to change the match to a Monday night we would presumably need the agreement of our opponents and the Conference board. I can't see that happening.

I doubt it will make any impact at all. A lot of those that don't go in the week are at work.

To avoid clashing? Monday Night Football?

You could have 140 years of no achievement, or twenty years of glorious victories, you decide.
