    Midweek fixtures

    There are not many midweek fixtures scheduled. Last year there were loads. Why is this?

    Don't worry, there'll be plenty of unscheduled ones.

    There were loads last year because of games being rescheduled.

    And there was no need to break for the World Cup if the national side didnt qualify for it.

    Same this year. Why are there no fixtures on the 10th of June? Especially when there is a midweek fixture list a week and a half before this?

    The midweek fixtures include Rovers at home to Cork and Derry home to Waterford. Seems obvious yet again that fans do not matter.

    FAO FAI there is no need for a summer break because then midweek fixtures have to be jammed in. Midweek fixtures, like thursday night football, attract dreadful crowds. When will they ever learn?

    In fairness i think a mid summer break is good at least for part time outfits it gives fans and players a window to go on holidays aswell

    For a week?? It's a joke. Last season we went 2 months without a home game and badly needed revenue because of their stupid break.

    That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

    Often far more entertaining than the games if my past experience is anything to go by
