August Landmesser Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Was never a fan of the idea before, but these days with the early European start I can see the use of it. If we'd been a third of the way into our season we would have wiped the floor with Infonet last night. Or at least strung a few passes together Time to introduce it?

jamtartan74 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 No, they should change their season to suit us not the other way round, bloody minnows. Can't wait for our winter break in January when the weather will be great but for Feb/March to be the worst months, got to love the decision makers in our game, geniuses [emoji1303].

Tommy Brown Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 I just hate sitting in freezing cold now. Old terracing days, everybody huddled up together, no problem. But sitting down, absolutely ****ing hate it, old seats in N3 weren't have as cold as the Wheatfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soonbe110 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 If we switch to summer football it means we close down from Nov-March. What would be the point of getting through two or three qualifiers if we are not competitive for later rounds. As long as Celtic and Rangers believe they can make group stages they will never support summer football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaggy2 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Group stages always end the second week in December so a late Feb or early/mid March start, depending on whether there are Euros/WC, finishing on the second Saturday in December wouldn't cause a problem. If the OF reach the ko stages let them play each other early Feb to prepare. TV would probably show the games! Having said that, we did postpone a game on 5th December last season, but that could be put down to bad groundkeeping as I believe we were the only pro game in Britain off that day.
