I don't like Friday night games and for me it is not what I want and is a problem. I do empathise with those fans who must travel distance to watch on the Friday night
Strange that there was nothing contractually agreed on this. Clearly there wasn't anything that meant CCFC got precedence on the fixtures otherwise there would have been no argument. The EFL are not going to do anything about it. The game will be played on the right weekend wont bother them when because the "integrity of the competition" remains unaffected. You would have to assume that the contract had some sort of term saying CCFC fixtures dates subject to change by the landlord (ie subject to availability), so changes were always possible.
Looking at it from a wasps point of view I can see why they might feel that their business is better off playing Saturdays. Like it or not the secondary spend of a Rugby crowd is likely to be bigger and for longer on a Saturday even if numbers reduced, travel is more accessible, the team get a recovery period similar to other teams etc. They are not reliant on crowd numbers in the same way CCFC are. If it suits their business better ask yourself what duty are they under to move their fixtures (to their detriment) to suit CCFC (to their advantage)?, especially when they own the asset in question and CCFC are day renters of the stadium for the season. We all know that the secondary spend at a CCFC match is not a great deal so no incentive there either. That's before mentioning court actions and any vindictiveness that some might perceive.
Reality of our situation is that it is no longer in CCFC's control in any sense, there is a decent working relationship up to the Boddy level but no real good will. CCFC do not have any alternatives and to expect either goodwill from wasps or intervention from the FA/EFL is I am afraid pie in the sky thinking. They (wasps) haven't first and foremost done this to spite SISU, what they have done is to have the confidence in their set up now to put themselves first every time........... it means some CCFC fans suffer, it wont actually affect the players or owners that much(at all?). Not really something wasps would be concerned about. It is a position that the owners of both sides have created
Doesn't bode well for when it comes time to renegotiate for next season 2019/20 does it?
If you were running wasps would you have done differently though? Don't take any of that as support for wasps, I don't like it any more than the rest of you, it is just stark reality
