joeyt Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 We're odd because the rest of the Championship are playing tonight, but we insist on playing home games on a Wednesday, probbly not to clash with the game at SoL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sander68 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Don't see how this could be a problem. Like we haven't had a match on the same day with them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kenny_c Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 It coz us and sunderland use northumbria police and they dont have the resources to police both matches on the same day. Its very rare we have ever played at home the same day as the mackems are at home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its very rare we have ever played at home the same day as the mackems are at home. Fact. What baffles me is why we didn't play on the Tuesday with the rest of the Championship and they didn't play on the Weds with the rest of the Premier League. There'll be some barmy reason out there I guess, like Ant and Dec have a capoeira class at Dancecity on a Tues and the police didn't want to change their plans or something.

leazes.ender Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Newcastle have always designated Wednesday as their midweek night and the mackems the Tuesday. Not sure the reason behind it though. Midweek games all used to be played on Wednesdays until the CL originally came along and so clubs moved to Tuesdays in the lower leagues to avoid clashes. When the CL got bigger the games spanned days through the week but most clubs left their 'day' as a Tuesday. Obviously we decided that we didn't have many floaters that would rather watch a game on the box. Same reason we play Hudderfield next Wednesday rather than Tues wehen the majority of games are on.
