    As I understand it, it was all in the interests of . . .

    . . . cheating.

    Someone one here wrote to the league about it, I think it was ES.

    Originally it was moved to Friday night at the insistence of the police, but because Blackpool and Cardiff both had to play on Wednesday in League Cup the police refused to allow it to be moved to Saturday so they postponed it under the Leagues 48 rule.

    What's the "official" reason cos it stinks, tomorrow should be a banker home for us & now it looks tricky with us playing yesterday and them having above a weeks rest. If we lose points we should be taking it further.

    Seriously, as ES's post says they've got it wrapped up

    Police objection to the game being put back to Saturday so nothing's going to come of any complaint. But was interesting to see that you can at least get them to answer.

    If we refused to move to Tuesday then it looks like the Sky money is the most important thing to BFC?

    No, they're just confident that we'll win anyway

    Sky money AND 3 points. Job done.

    To be fair

    We just had a rest for the internationals and it did us no good whatsoever. Weve no injuries and are offthe back of a win so bring it on I say.
