Is there a reason why our midweek matches are all on Wednesday now?

    Other than the Easter weekend of course. I think I’ve missed something.

    I wonder whether having a large portion on the mid week games on the Sky red button has some part to play in it? Just guessing, though.

    Chien Lee has requested they be moved back a day because he was fed up of losing Tuesday night games.

    I realised that for this week but all our remaining midweek matches, bar Easter, are on Wednesday now.

    It's just so they can split the games into two groups not just for the red button but I'd imagine because ifollow is so bad it helps take the load off for them too.

    No idea why we seem to be in the Wednesday group all of a sudden though

    I know for a fact that Messers Chien and Daddy Paul have insisted that we play on Wednesdays so that when we move to Rotherham in 2022 and become the Wednesday Grove Street Owls no one will notice ;)

    I thought it was to avoid the risk of Tuesday games being classed as Saturday games, for iFollow purposes...
