Not every fan lives in the vicinity of Field Mill ! What about fans travelling from other parts of the country to support the stags and cant make it now for what ? Playing under the lights ?
Football generally is Saturday 3pm we have enough weekday games on Tuesdays we dont need anymore !

David Sharpe on Friday night game:
One of the reasons behind switching the Exeter game (to a Friday night), we both believe this place under lights is a special place to play football (unbelievable atmosphere).
Exeter weren't going to bring many (supporters) on a Saturday anyway. But I personally felt, the less (supporters) they (Exeter) bring, the better for us. Any advantage we can get is great.
Nigel Clough adds: it is different at night matches (the atmosphere), the floodlights and everything, I don't know what it is.

I understand your frustration. Coming from Surrey it doesn't make it easy for me.
However there will always be winners and losers with this sort of thing. There will be people who couldn't attend on Saturday who can on Friday night. And vice versa.

Fully understand that it will suit some fans and I respect there will be differing opinions but when the fixtures were put out it was for Saturday 3pm surely the club must understand that it will be frustrating for fans as that was the given fixture date !
I know at the start of the season there is little chance of me making Tuesday night games however I still have my ST cos it supports the club, however to lose the sanctity of English footballs traditions of Saturday 3pm to move a game to play under the lights and cheese a proportion of fans off just doesn't make sense to me

We can hardly complain if other clubs now do the same thing to us to reduce our away support. It doesn't really affect me, but it's not right.

I'm under the impression they're doing it to purposefully reduce crowds because they won't have the pre match queues under control by then

it was fine against Stockport wasn't it?
