Rovers' relegation moves step closer

Do games in Portugal / Spin / Italy / etc not start an hour later simply cos they take a siesta in the middle of the day and therefore don't finish work until much later than us?

Yeah, traditionally dinner time in Spain/Italy etc is much later too

No. They don't take siestas in winter.

In any case, games in those countries folow closely with their neighbours in Northern Europe. Most countries' games begin after 8pm-8.30pm, Italy ko's are at 8.45, Portugal (same time zone as us) usually have theirs at 9pm, Spain does have 7 and 8pm ko's, but are exceptions to the rule, rather than the norm which is usually 9-10pm. The odd ones out, are Ireland and the UK, who almost always start evening games at an awkward time of evening, i.e. before 8, and in some cases, earlier still.

Yeah but its a totally different way of living. 7.45 is not awkaward. Get over it...

It's not your fault, when you can't get to a game on time. It's the home club's fault, i.e. Bohs in this instance.

Absolute quality

So if I have a few too many beforehand and leave the boozer late it's boez fault?!!! Amazing!

Work commitments, together with traffic delays, are the biggest factor in fans being unable to make (early) kos. Most of us don't have enough time to make it to ko, never mind the boozer.

I saw that as a compliment, the LoI could do with as much drama as it can get, fist fights, deportations, examinerships, putting the entire squad up for sale, it all makes for great entertainment . Enjoy the boredom of Home 'we have no fans' Farm next season, if they survive that long.
