Christmas fixtures

[Bluekiwi]

A bit unfair on 18 EPL teams that they only got two days between games whereas the scousers and Swansea got an extra day.

Yes and now both Swansea and Liverpool get a days less rest.

I am now beginning to agree that there is too much football over the xmas period, after watching us and other teams look tired and yes it is easier to get injurys, i think it time for a change, as much as i love football on boxing day, also we have to look at the cost of going to matchs over xmas and new year its a lot of money when buying 4 tickets and travel to 4-5 games. that is all.

 

[waspish]

Yep they should just do without 1 fixture this time of the year it will make a big difference

Correct. All the PL sides will play 3 games in a week (friday-sunday/monday-thursday). No advantage to Liverpool or Swansea. The agenda thread is upstairs, by the way!

I think it's just the way Christmas and New Year fell this year and I believe that a heavy schedule (3 games in a week) is great for the fans
We're the ones who get dicked about with fixture changes, so to play when the majority of supporters are on holiday is a good thing

less game sover xmas would help our pockets and give the players quality time with their families. in brians case both familes.

The womens refuge centres couldnt cope if there were fewer games at this time of year.

I also think there should be less. The Boxing day fixture is great, as too is the New Years Day one but the one inbetween is too much.

I'd agree with this.
