Fixture Change

Running a football club is not about individuals.

It's about doing what's right for the Club, a Friday Fixture gives us no local competition for gate (I Hope), and England play Saturday 3pm kick off.
It gives us an extra day to rest and/or prepare for Chelmsford.

To play Friday is the right choice.
Spot on TC, Friday or Saturday makes no odds to me and now I can watch both Enlgand and Ricay play crucial games. If there was a clash I'd watch Ricay anyway - you can video England, only 1 chance to watch Town! And BTW being "Nitetime Neil" early kick-offs HURT !!!

I was surprised that we could change the date of the game, seeing that Good Friday is such an important date in the Christian diary
Come on Gaz!!! Be serious - how many players, fans and officials do you honestly think are deeply religious in this day and age?! I personally couldn't give a hoot if we played on Good Friday, Easter Sunday, Ash Wednesday or Pancake Day, as long as it was right for the team/club. The extra day between games is more important here, and the chance to maximise the crowd numbers.

Although I'm happy with the switch - if only to give us an advantage over Chelmsford - I agree with Gazza's point that good friday is an imortant day for people, even if they are not deeply religious. It is one of those times when a lot of arrangements are made, such as with family etc. Still I guess what better excuse than to bring them all down with you!
