Nowt wrong with 46 games.. as lower clubs said why reduce it..lost revenue.. but as its been said they need to rethink these tuesday long away trips for teams and avoid at all costs. Better still why arent fans consulted on surveys and this way maybe get a truer reflection on what fans would prefer..not what some office suits think.

So you say 46 is fine, then bemoan long midweek games. Never get any better for us with our location!

I agree that 46 is fine but a little bit of logistical leeway could be applied to some fixtures, to prevent having an away at Plymouth or Exeter on a Tuesday night.

Simple solution as i said


Theres a simple solution to the " Tuesday game " problem when the divisions teams are known the league ask every club to tell them 3 clubs theyd be happy to play Midweek and 3 they wouldnt want to play midweek home and away and then enter those preferences into the parameters when the " fixture computer " compiles the games and that way the clubs would be seen to be getting what they want.

But the best thing would be supporter involvement and knowledge would iron out a lot of the stupid matches you get now for example the away capacity at say Morecambe and Accrington is about a thousand and we would be just as likely to sell that for a night match as we would for a Saturday game.so make them away night matches.

We wouldnt want to play teams from a distance who would potentially bring a good following like lets say Portsmouth Plymouth and Oxford as night matches so they would be home Saturday games

Its called common sense but organisations like the Football League who can produce crap like this clearly arent capable of that

Road trips [ one game say Fri night and one on Sun Aft ] are good for the Fans but suspect wouldnt go down well with the Managers etc

Would it not be even simpler just to have a maximum distance for mid-week games. 150 miles max for example. Simply programme that into the fixture computer and Carlisle can't find themselves playing Tuesday nights in Plymouth, Portsmouth, Exeter etc

No way should there be 3 up 3 down from Conference. Too many tin pot clubs in FL as it is. To standardise it they should reduce the amount to three in between L1 and L2.

Its not the number of clubs coming up from the conference thats the problem its the infrastructure regulations that need tightening up for instance a minimum 5 year stay at that level for clubs coming up from below and the ground up to a higher standard a year earlier than it is now meaning investment has to be made before you know youre in with a good chance of being promoted and they should also be made to join the league website/player thing.
