Was it a deliberate ploy to stage 3 of our last 5 home games on a Friday evening? (one of the others is a monday btw)

If it was, hats off to whoever planned this. No one can surely disagree that Friday Night footy has been a resounding success for Pools as far as reults and attendances go. Maybe MadJohn can back me up with the stats?

This is the most tense period of the season and every match is crucial, therefore every little advantage is imperative and I am convinced that playing these last few games on a Friday, will give us that extra boost.

not to mention the possibility of putting even more pressure on our rivals before they have even kicked off the following day!!!!
