Forte_Baby Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Just noticed same day we play Orient England will be playing a friendly at Wembley so i suspect it will either be an earlier kick off or played on Friday or Sunday unless England kick off later. Still may try go to both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorrro Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I hope it's on the Friday. Night on the lash in Covent Garden (Soho ) then get the night bus home. All day Saturday to recover, fresh as a daisy for football on Sunday morning. The perfect crime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
help_shiny Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Hopefully England will play in the evening or perhaps even on Friday night. It's a bit much to have the league switch its fixtures about on account of a friendly against Slovakia. Then again, what do we count for in the grand scheme of things?

Eddie_m'gurk Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Was just about to book some flights. Could do with some clarification on this one!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest M_OAFC Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Was just about to book some flights. Could do with some clarification on this one!!!! The FA have said that the England kick off time is still to be confirmed so I don't suppose Orient will make a decision till then. If England is 3pm you would imagine Orient v Oldham will get moved, be it to an earlier/later kick off time on the Saturday or to the Friday night/Sunday afternoon. But if England kick off around 6ish, which they occasionally do for Saturday home games, then I would imagine Orient will leave it as Saturday 3pm. There is also an outside chance it could get moved to a midweek date later in the season if either team gets 3 international call ups. I don't know how many internationals Orient have but obviously there is a chance Eardley and Davies will get called up which on it's own would not be enough for a cancellation but with the game over 6 months away you never know who we might have signed by then, or Fleming could be back in the Scotland under 21 set up or something like that. I suppose squads won't get announced till a couple of weeks before either so the uncertainty is a pain for people wanting to book transport.

Tommy_Fent Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Why whats up with the stockport game.... it clashes with a Sale Sharks game and they own the ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 it clashes with a Sale Sharks game and they own the ground I thought though that Stockport have priority though on fixture times as part of their tenancy agreement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Looks like the Rugby are taking Saturday according to a reply one of the OASIS contingent got from their enquiries office, although they could have been talking out of their arses I suppose.

slurms mckenzie Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I thought though that Stockport have priority though on fixture times as part of their tenancy agreement. Unfortunately, Sale Sharks rule the roost at Edgeley Park. The ticket office at Stockport told a County supporter that County approached Latics to have the game moved to a Friday, but we refused. Sunday is now the most likely option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, at least it gives us those 24 hours of being able to say we're top...with a game in hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
