Fair enough - we're in a similar situation. But we wouldn't have
bothered with either game anyway.
A lot of STHs appear to have voted with their feet, though.

meaningful fixtures.

Oh I agree - I can't think of anything better. But if supporters
don't turn up don't blame them.

Huh? You're saying the club doesn't have a say in what friendly

Watch here at approx 46min 45 secs
H3 said 20% on avg to every match, the slide says 25%. But
importantly it is avg of every match not league.

If you like. You agreed with Miles' suggestion that the club
can't "magic up meaningful fixtures".

It has a say in what friendly matches it can ask teams for, but
it entirely depends on the other team as to whether they agree
and what sort of side they choose to field.
