This is the second match I've had tix for this season, last one was Mansfield, which got postponed so I cancelled the tix for a refund.

If it is moved, same again, but it doesn't encourage me to come to the ground when they keep messing about - I'm 100 miles away so never going to be there often.

Just emailed for refund, somewhat frustrated the two games I've tried to get down to see both ended up being moved, so will give up with home matches this season now, fingers crossed for getting tickets and no movement for (the nearer) Cambridge away!

Ffs. He’ll miss 2 games now.

If the game on the Saturday before is cancelled because of international call ups, the Thursday night game should be as well

According to what I've been told the club did ask the EFL to reconsider but they refused. Oh well, that's another game I can't see . I can't make midweek games due to work commitments.. That's about four games I've lost now from my season ticket. Anyway , so long as we win I'll be happy enough

How many players are we likely to have called up?

Ethan? Keeley? Is that it?

Bizarre tv choice but suits me as I couldn’t go on the Saturday.

Feel bad for anyone having to travel or that now can’t attend.

Contact the club and ask them to use a bit of the TV money they’ve trousered to refund your train tickets. I bloody would.

On the plus side, Stevenage may lose Jamie Reid.

So EFL turn down a request from LOFC as money and SKY more important. I’m fed up of losing Saturday matches at Brisbane Road. Of the 23 home league games this season only 14 are currently played or scheduled to be played on Saturdays. Thats just 61% of our home league matches. Add to that the fact that the last three away games took place in the space of 8 days and two of these were on Tuesdays when there was no public transport available to get home after the game
Had I been able to drive to those three games I would have had to drive. a little under 1,000 miles.
Enough is enough. EFL don’t care about fans at all. Perhaps the only way to get them to listen is to organise a peaceful sit down pitch invasion, in front of the live cameras, during the match with Stevenage. Only needs to last a couple of minutes.Who knows Stevenage fans might even join in. OK it’s illegal but what else can we do to get their attention?
