    Not on TV as far as I can see, what is the advantage of a Friday night game?

    Because a few weeks ago someone panicked and looked at the World Cup Fixtures.
    Had England finished second in the group the match tomorrow afternoon at 3pm would have been England v Netherlands and rather than risk a clash the match was moved
    Because none of our fans would have gone staying home to watch England allegedly _ Now we cant go cause its a friday night and getting to Peterboro after work isnt possible for many who would have gone on a Saturday afternoon - like Me for example
    iFollow it is then

    They've decided to do that while the World Cup is on anyway (for most of our games).
