Now a Friday night ffs , Villa v Leicester on the Saturday
I thought this sort of thing was sorted out before the fixtures were published. Isn't the point of pairing teams to avoid this kind of problem?Now a Friday night ffs , Villa v Leicester on the Saturday

Notts County Play Off Semi Final?When was the last time we had an away game on a Friday evening?

Before that I recall we played and won 1-0 (Stuart Pearce penalty) at already relegated Stoke on a Friday night back in May 85 before beating Luton and Everton to stay up. I was one of the few hundred who travelled up more in hope than expectation in a crowd of less than 7,000.Of course, can only think of Bradford before that, first season after we got relegated from the EPL.
There was a cup tie against Wimbledon away but can't think of any other league games.

Sure we played Man City away on a Friday night in 93Arsenal FA Cup 2014
Agreed, of all the alternative weekendish kick off times it's probably the best of the lot. Friday night games at the CBS have usually had a good atmosphere etc. Shame the Manchester train doesn't stop at Smethwick Rolfe St on the way down!I'm guessing its down to work commitments but how come so many are against a Friday night KO? I'm quite looking forward to it, despite the 100mile dash to make it.
I remember listening to that on cwr Stoke got a penalty a few minutes from full-time Ian Painter later to sign for us took it I think it was Rob Gurney commenting which went something like Oggys saved it, no it’s in, it’s not it’s saved, it’s cleared, imagine that a draw we were relegated.Before that I recall we played and won 1-0 (Stuart Pearce penalty) at already relegated Stoke on a Friday night back in May 85 before beating Luton and Everton to stay up.

Yes we did I was there.Think it was moved to Friday because there was a concert at Maine Road on the SaturdaySure we played Man City away on a Friday night in 93
They were causing mayhem on Sky Blue Way walking to the ground.I always remember Millwall at Highfield Road on a Friday night the season after we got relegated from the Prem.
Without playing up to stereotypes the amount of lads they brought that night was ridiculous!! Not a woman or Millwall shirt in sight!
Kicked straight off as soon as they got in the Rocket as well.They were causing mayhem on Sky Blue Way walking to the ground.
Probably a week or two away from that yet. Still got to get Preston out.Any idea on when tickets come out?

Ahhh Preston. Why are we always so shit there. 7 hour round trip on a Tuesday night last year and our worst performance of the season.Probably a week or two away from that yet. Still got to get Preston out.
I think Luton away deserves that accolade.Ahhh Preston. Why are we always so shit there. 7 hour round trip on a Tuesday night last year and our worst performance of the season.
Only the last 5 years. In 2017 we beat them 3.0 and I was shitting it in the home end that day. We’ve never won in the league at Preston only a couple of cup wins and that was even 23 years ago.I think Luton away deserves that accolade.

Fa cup 4th round day that one so may not need to
