    We play them at our place on a Tuesday night (March 1st) so wasn't this known about soon enough to do a swap?

    So we were meant to be playing Coventry away.

    Is this event just tonight? If so why not just move the match to tommorow?

    Nothing is showing as happening there tonight. Rather amateurish to allow this to happen instead of just swapping the fixtures around so we were playing them at Oakwell tonight.

    They played an under 21 game at the Ricoh yesterday and there is no event listed there tonight. I notice that neither clubs' official statement states a reason for the re-arrangement.

    The only two (far-fetched) conspiracy theories I can find on the CCFC forum are:-

    1) The hospitality boxes are being used by Wasps for a private function which means that CCFC wouldn't be able to sell them for the game; or
    2) The seats are being re-fitted to Wasps colours rather than sky blue

    All a bit weird.

    Most clubs play tonight but we don't. We play Coventry 3rd November but no one else plays. I can't see how it makes any difference whether we play the game now or then.

    I read back in July something about Wasps wouldn't be putting on some catering or staff, or something as bizarre. As bizarre as Wasps own the blue CCFC seated arena

    That would be against FL rules as you can't play 3 consecutive games at home or away. If we played at the Ricoh at the start of March, I believe it would mean 3 consecutive league aways.
