They should just dump the water into that new lake they've dug at the bottom of Dimensions.

    That maybe the purpose of the lake.

    Why is the rearranged Wimbledon game a 7 pm KO ?

    I sent a  email on Tuesday and this is the reply I have received 

    "I’m sorry to hear about the inconvenience the early kick-off time has caused.

    The earlier kick-off time was mutually agreed by both teams and is intended to help families with younger children enjoy the match, particularly those who may not usually be able to attend an evening fixture.

    We apologise for any inconvenience caused and look forward to welcoming you to Vale Park very soon."

    Make of that what you will.

    Why stop at 7, let's have midweek  kick offs at 5pm. I do wonder sometimes if the club are in the real world

    That Barrow game last season was randomly a 7.30pm kick off as well. I wish they’d make their minds up.

    That would make sense if the original kickoff was 7 but why is the rearranged date more likely to appeal than the original?

    All a bit odd. Why pick this one as a family game when the original fixture wasn't? If they're messing around with times then an even later kick off would be better for Wimbledon, if any families are traveling the they'll have to take them out of school to get them there!

    The only point of a earlier KO for children is if the rearranged match was in half term?

    The attendance should reveal whether this is a work of genius or a blunder. I think we all know which of the two it's going to be. The disregard the club has shown for fans travelling from work or any sort of distance is shocking really.

    Suits me fine. I start work at 10pm, so usually have to leave early. You're never going to be able to please everybody, unfortunately.

    Agree with you.

    Serious questions need to be asked about the playing surface and drainage considering all the money which was invested only a short time ago.

    Embarrassing to be the only club postponed again at L1.

     

    I totally agree and that's why I raised the subject. Embarrassing is the correct word!

    Thats excellent - Wimbledon considering their travelling hoard of school children .  Why not make it half past six then ?  They come out with some sheite at times, they really do .

    I don't know - on the one hand people don't want to turn up, on the other they are complaining about KO times 😄
