I don’t know anyone who likes Thursday games but Sky are our paymasters and if they want to show games on a Thursday and we want the money then that’s when they’ll be.
People saying they won’t go because it’s Thursday, won’t go on a Friday as they only like weekend games or whatever reason they are coming up with is just an excuse. Fans seem to be finding reasons not to go rather than finding reasons to go. It’s like some people prefer having a whinge more than attending a game.
Thursdays will no doubt be difficult for some, especially if you have young children but they don’t come around that often. Football fans manage to fill stadia on Monday’s, Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
I’d say to those people get off you’re behind and support your game otherwise it probably won’t survive never mind prosper.
