    Teams can express preferences

    IIRC

    ie. long distance tuesdays

    home games at holidays

    first / last game away / home.

    Fixture compilers try to accommodate as many as possible

    Personally I don't mind if the last match is home or away. What's the big facination with wanting game 46 to be at home? What difference does it make? All it means is people have to wait an extra game before they can run on the pitch for no reason.

    I guess people would rather not travel hundreds of miles to have a fancy dress party.

    Becuase I would rather celebrate us staying up in front of a full house rather than getting arse grapes doing it down at plymouth.

    We wouldn't have been able to celebrate staying up with the players anyway because fans will have been on the pitch so they wouldn't have come back out.

    Yeah I know.... But they had a pitch invasion at Pride park you know. Players still came out and were applauded. Both teams. By both sets of fans. Together. on the Pitch. Do you understand.
