Just noticed that this rescheduled match is on the mid term holiday weekend for schools. Think this might be a bad move for us since a lot of people with kids will be away for the long weekend.
Also a bit strange to change a match scheduled for 8 April into what is likely to be a cold a chilly February.
I realise that the club are trying to move a midweek fixture to a Saturday as they believe they will get a bigger crowd on a weekend but it might not work here given what I have said previously.

A good move IMO. Saturday football every time over midweek, regardless of the weather.

Personally I'd much rather have a Saturday fixture as well. I can't really see it making too much difference to attendance. I'd hope that it maybe added a few more on. Who knows, it's all down to personal preferences. I know my son and a few of his friends have after school activities so the wouldn't make a midweek game anyway.

I agree that a Saturday is preferable to midweek but just thought the Saturday chosen was poor.
The 7th of March is currently a free Saturday as well so that would have been a better choice in my opinion.
Anyway I hope it results in a good attendance.

Saturday would be most peoples preference but I know what your about a cold day in February as opposed to March or April when the temperatures should be better.
