I imagine the game against Leyton Orient will get postponed which would give Duff 11 days to work with the players after the cup game against Barnsley. This could be make or break for this season because we could get some form going after the break as we'll have a lot of games against the easier opposition in the league after it. Our first 10 games are pretty much our hardest run of the season so it would be stupid to even consider sacking Duff without a proper crack at these games after the break.

This side have barely any quality. There won’t be any getting back into it.
Mid table at the very best.

Think it is about time they decided if game is on or not. Had long enough to sort this out.

Fans interest at heart obviously. We made the school boy error of not realising you could cancel games in division 3 so booked trains and accommodation ages ago. Ffs. Why don’t they highlight the international weekend up front.

I was going to go to Orient but it's looks doubtful now. The last thing anyone think's about other than the fans, is the fans.

Sounds like I am more lucky than you. Am staying in London after a guys retirement do and the Orient game was a bonus.

Had I not been going on holiday I would probably have gone to this one. Usually on train. I believe during last international break only 3 out of 11 games went ahead in L1 Perhaps the time has come to cancel all L1 games on international breaks as well as those leagues above.

Hope things improve. Just booked a hotel and train fares to come down for the Charlton game in November. £625:00 for me and the missus. Staying in Leeds this time rather than Huddersfield so a tad more expensive. I was 3 games 3 wins last season so fingers crossed the run continues.

Orient away has now been postponed So another Saturday without football then...☹️ ☹️ ☹️ Ah well - I suppose it’ll be a day of 🎣 fishing 🐠 and nature 🦉spins around The Whisky Isle then... How I truly F*uckin utterly HATE weekend international football ! 😬 😬 I suppose it’ll suppress the need to prepare for a Town defeat though... But Scotland will probably makes sure defeat happens for me regardless ! 😉

Clach at home to Turriff that day Westie. Get tha sen to Inverness😉 All booked up for the following home game at Clachnacuddin v Forres Mechanics on Saturday 2nd November Lossiemouthtownfan ! 👍 Will be out at the family home in Connel from 24th October all being well for final ground maintenance of the year and whatever else crops up to be attended to there which is usually plenty... Will travel to Fort William with motor mid morning on Friday 1st November, dump it there have a few drams of whisky in The Crofter Bar and The Ben Nevis, before heading North to Inverness by bus for a good Friday night of booze, music and whatever bonuses come the way ! 😉 Then a lovely Saturday at Grant Street Park for what should be a good close battle... Hopefully Clachnacuddin can Engineer a way to put a Spanner 🔧 in the works of The Mechanics, be bright Sparks, Plug any gaps the visitors create, and Fire on all Cylinders to a good win and give me the excuse to get Pist-on the Saturday ! 😊 🥃 🍺

Just a heads up, next break is Wycombe away 16th Nov so expect that to be postponed as well Wycombe have just two international players currently so the request to postpone would have to come from Town (providing we have 3 called up).........If its up to the manager to decide then he may think playing it on that date would be more benefit than a night match in Jan/Feb.

yeah, found that out far too late. I was more meaning Town on their fixture calendar. Never even thought that Div 3 clubs could cancel matches for international call ups.

All this extra training time will probably give a few more players a chance to injure themselves.

Struggling to decide what I hate the most about modern day football.
VAR or the 'international breaks'
I can't even bring my self to say it. I want proper league football on a Saturday.

With JK apparently injured & out for a few weeks & Brodie Spencer suspended after picking up a fifth yellow card it means now just Marshall & Hodge will be available for Bristol Rovers at home after the international break.....Callum will be with the NI squad in Belfast 8pm ko while Joe heads to Italy 5pm ko on the Tuesday (15th) prior.

Everybody happy now, Saturday afternoon in October and no football to even get slightly bothered about. Even the test cricket is over. I'm going to clean the garage out. Nothing to even listen to on the radio apart from maybe Tranmere Bradford Who thinks this is a good idea?

You sound like someone who's just started following Town where've you been the past 10+ seasons, normally go off March/Oct breaks although doing November this time.......Next month to be postponed would require a speedy recovery of JK/JH, unless Hoggy is called up to replace Rice after the other night!

Says on FA site that Hednesford Town v Gateshead is live on BBC from 3-30pm today.......We could draw the winners.

I think this every season. It annoys me every time. Shite meaningless internationals killing the momentum of the proper football. I'd say people who started going 10 years ago are more accepting of this shitshow. Personally I've been going since the early 70s so think I'm allowed an opinion.

Hope the Wycombe away game goes ahead on 16th Nov as planned. That would make three Town away games in two weeks for me at Crawley, Wycombe and then Leyton Orient.
I’m at Crawley v Shrewsbury today. Can’t beat some fresh air, a pint and some football after a week of decorating.
