    Collins said he'd be playing.

    Only 2 L1 games being played now ! Why not cancel all L1 & 2 games and play EFL trophy matches on international breaks ?

    That is frustrating, but I'd have thought if you're a chef then midweek would be easier?! I work in hospitality and Tuesday games are great as I've got half a chance of watching them!

    Mate's a Carlisle fan - him and four of his mates were staying at a hotel and were planning a night out in town after the game. They'll get the ticket money back but not the hotel - They're quite rightly annoyed ... as I would be!

    Cole Russell Styles missing would make quite a difference.

    Exactly. I will not be renewing my season ticket. I attend very few evening games. It would have been a lot cheaper for me to buy my tickets on a game by game basis.

    Not the fault of bfc so no complaint in that regard but I don't think international call ups should allow a team to call off a game. If you're lucky enough to have international players in your squad then you should have a good enough squad to cope if they're unavailable. It's the risk you take when you sign internationals.

    Yeah 2 out of 3 of them missing might actually improve us

    Agreed. I read, a couple of weeks since, that Man Utd are looking so re-sign free agent David De Gea as his replacement, that Onana bloke, has changed his mind about retiring from international football with Cameroon. So he’s off to the Africa Nations Cup. I can’t imagine Prem teams will be rearranging fixtures for international call ups.

    I get how it's inconvenient for fans, but not sure why the Club are coming in for hammer on this one. Being without 3 first team players obviously weakens us.

    I don't agree with the lower leagues postponing for international call ups' obviously most prem teams are made up entirely of internationals but certainly lge 1 and 2 clubs sbould still be able to field a decent side thats why they have 20 man squads.

    as more and more L1 and L2 clubs have international call ups just make it a blank weekend just like top 2 tiers. Then at least the midweek games would be known well in advance and fans can
    plan accordingly

    3 international breaks, 3 home games postponed. Whoever compiles the fixtures needs to consider this.

    PPP.

    Whilst I appreciate it’s not the clubs fault. It does devalue a season ticket. I’m now at the point that I might not bother as I’ve barley used it this season and missed 3 sat games that have been rescheduled for midweek games when I can’t make them.

    It’s a shame in these circumstances that fans that live away or deem they cannot make the rearranged fixture can claim a free match pass to watch the game via iFollow

    not really just because I kind of have an agreement in place where I get most home games off (unless we’re short staffed which in recent years is just the norm)
    So Rotas are done weeks in advance so when they keep getting moved it more or less means I miss them as I don’t wanna mess them about with more hassle with it when they get rearranged.
    Like I said in hindsight I should have just walked away this season, baby due early next year but I just wanted1 more season with my dad before I have to miss a few seasons anyway due to us having a baby. Again I’m not saying this is clubs fault either but I’ve never known league 1 games get called off so much for call ups before, never used to happen a few seasons back

    Don't worry. If we play as bad at their place on Tuesday night as we did at home then we will have a spare weekend at the beginning of December.

    We might play worse than the first game but convert more of our chances and win
