Crikey, another football topic.
23rd March we have a free weekend to fit an England friendly in, ffs, we are forced to lake 3 games this week, risking injury / burnout, then we have a free weekend for a friendly !!
Does this make any sense !!
Why not cram it into midweek, they complain of too many fixtures yet except this s**t.
I wonder how many will pull out of said fixture ?
Free weekend

Re: Free weekend
International football used to be played in midweek & not interfere with the domestic fixtures, many moons ago.
Farke needs to pull a stunt & claim Leeds have a sickness bug in the camp, with our players going nowhere.

Re: Free weekend
The most irritating thing about the next International break is that our Welsh contingent Rodon, Roberts, Ampadu and James will have perhaps intensive Euro qualifiers then. A Semi with Finland and then a Final against Poland or Estonia five days later.

Re: Free weekend
I absolutely hate....hate these pointless internationals.
Re: Free weekend
Over the last few years I have completely lost any interest in Internationa football, I never watch any of the games and care nothing about the results. They are just an annoying interference in my book.

Me neither, although I do get into the major championships (even put up my wall chart etc
).Don’t cry because you said goodbye to your pet, smile because you said hello

Hopefully DF does as said above with the sickness bug, doubt that will happen for something major like the euros though.
Good job we have back up with Cooper, Cresswell, Gray, Gnonto
