Which is in London. They seem perfectly capable of putting 3 or 4 Prem teams at home at the same time in London so how they can use that as an excuse is beyond me.

Edit: Terror "risk" would probably be more accurate

The only thing I can think of(not saying it's corect!) Is they think they'll get a better crowd than if we played it on the Saturday? I think a few teams have changed time/day because of it.

Including us twice last season!

Bit of a joke really with only a month to go. For those who've pre planned trips and travel it's a water take doing it so close, these sorts of changes should be made pre season to avoid inconvenience. Any train buffs reckon you could use train tickets with a letter noticing of the fixture change for use of travel?

Well this means we wont be taking hundreds now to Cambridge, a game i was looking forward to attending. But is is worth moving the game if England are not in the final of the Rugby World Cup? Answer, in my opinion, is NO. A friend of mine was going to run a coach to Cambridge, but i guess he wont do now! Bloody Egg Chasers!!!!!!

I genuinely thought the post was a wind up and the link would take me to something else, although surely it wouldn't cost that much to add commentary?

Dunno if I'd be willing to pay money to watch the game down the mem on a TV, I mean if it was free I'd go and Rovers would make money off the bar anyway.

At least their thinking outside the box..... Think it would have been better to say £5 gets you in and a free pint....
That said, the box sounds like an idea.....

I said this would be happening during closed season and got shot down for it. Didn't think we would have to pay for the honour though!

Said what would be happening I can't recall anybody saying the match would move to Friday let alone boardcast live to the mem? As far as paying for it surely you don't expect Rovers to put if on for free, as if its going to cost them money then why make the effort to put it on in the first place?

I said Rovers would start to show away games at the mem. This will be happening more in the future and we are not the only club doing it.
