    The only away game that might be impacted is Cambridge (16 November), all the others are at home - Bristol, Reading, Cambridge. Hopefully given the teams involved there won't be any disruption to the schedule for a change.

    Only needs 3 I believe. So it may be us requesting postponements. Jalo. Russel +?

    What a silly statement to make when, I presume, you have no idea of other teams full squads and who they might sign in the meantime. what difference does it make if we play or not during that time? The matches have to be played at some point…

    People have previously complained about making travel/work arrangements only for fixtures to be rearranged, Portsmouth last season and Ipswich the year before, as two examples, so I'd imagine it makes a difference to those people. Playing games on their scheduled weekends also avoids us having to play Saturday-Tuesday-Saturday for multiple weeks, which would also make a difference from a squad fitness perspective.

    While it is entirely possible that any of those teams, or indeed we ourselves could end up with mutliple internationals on the books, hopefully there won't be any disruption for the reasons above.
