That’s the criteria a local Stockport reporter has suggested. My understanding of the criteria is different - unless things have changed recently - and I believe Stockport were able to request a postponement on Thursday. I guess we will have to wait and see.
Very disappointing. You feel eventually the EFL have to step in and take charge of what seems to be a very piecemeal approach. Or stop scheduling games altogether on international weekends.
She was a Scouser, not an aggressive Eastender, but if you’d heard her speaking offstage you would probably have been hard put to detect the Liverpool accent. She was quite posh.
A catchphrase was “Surprise surprise”, the name of a show I can’t begin to describe.
What’s the status of next weeks Crawley v Shrewsbury game? If that gets postponed we ought to try and play our EFL trophy game against them on Saturday.
Only 2 games left on in L1 next Saturday now. It's farcical. Either scrap the whole schedule for international weekends or make everyone play regardless. Current situation is unfair on fans (but since when have they mattered?).
Yep. It's another of these scenarios that are so achingly obvious, but they'll take ages to address.
The plus side of a few teams getting their game in on the Saturday is massively undone by everyone else constantly having to change their plans at a week's notice 4 times a season.
That might not work, but surely there's a team without much international interest that we're due to play on some miserable midweeker in Winter who'd be up for switching to face us next Saturday?
Probably too much effort for the clubs / league and too little notice maybe?

Match postponed. Confirmed via the club’s socials.
As Cilla Black would have said……..
“What’s ya name and where d’ya come from?”

I was a big fan of dear Priscilla. Loved Blind Date but Moment of Truth was my favourite.
absolutely pathetic and gutless by Stockport ...Hope every team in the league nails them...even reading!

The game will go ahead as scheduled

You’d think we’d be able to do something. Feels like we played someone in the EFL Trophy on a Saturday last season in this sort of situation.
Yes, we definitely did. But maybe they think for that sort of game very few bother to go anyway, so less of everything needed to sort.
But you'd think even with 1 week notice we'd get a higher attendance for most games than a midweeker in Dec/Jan.
