I remember last year we had a really long turnaround between 2 games and got pumped…..the excuse used was the turnaround was too long and we were out of practise or some bs
might have been after a bye round or something
I find that line from AOB infuriating.
The “short turnaround” excuse is an insult. Not because it wouldn’t have an effect, but because a 6 day flip happens to half of the clubs every second week, only to balance out the following week or so.
We’ve gone 8,6,6,6, and next week will be 10 days between, followed by back to back 7’s.
The TV schedule means you have to prepare for 6 day turnarounds, and apart from the very rare 5 day shot, the other weeks need to be looked at as a bonus re prep.
Should we not expect some quality football in the coming weeks? Time will tell.
