Can anybody on here tell me why we have 4 away games on the trot?
Our next home game isn't until March 8th!
That is just not on. Talk about the Football league being against us.
I've never seen that before for any team anywhere.
Crazy and unfair surely?

Away Fixtures
KEEP CALM & MARCH ON TOGETHER!
Re: Away Fixtures
We were meant to have this Brighton game between Leicester and Ipswich but it got moved due to their FA Cup commitments, hence why we also had three home games in a row. We were also meant to have Charlton at home this coming weekend but it too has been moved due to Charlton still being in the FA Cup.

We love a good conspiracy, don't we?
It's to do with rearranged fixtures due to FA Cup, and how the schedule falls.
We had 3 home games on the trot before Yeovil, was that the Football League screwing us as well?
This is how the schedule looked when the fixture calendar was generated last summer
February 2014
Sat 1 15:00 Huddersfield Town H Championship
Sat 8 15:00 Yeovil Town A Championship
Sat 15 15:00 Charlton Athletic H Championship
Sat 22 15:00 Middlesbrough A Championship

Re: Away Fixtures
I'm with Loony on this one.
The Football League KNEW Brighton and Charlton would be involved in the FA Cup, infact I bet they sent out referees that would ensure they won their Cup ties. This would then give us that long run of away fixtures.
SHITBAGS!
Thing is, there is a rule about to be written that if we pick up maximum points from these fixtures we will be given a 15 point deduction. The rule is not yet written, but it can be cobbled together pretty quickly if needs be.
Luckily for us Brian McDermott had a 'feeling' this could happen and let Brighton beat us last night.... this again shows the quality of BMcD...
Under Warnock we would have probably won.
