The looming spectre of.....The Conference League

[Offside]

We should have beaten Burnley to avoid it. Now it feels inevitable that Newcastle will overtake us.

Chelsea keep trying to outdo us by being even shiter, otherwise they’d ease past us.

I think the worst thing about it is playing Thursday and Sunday again every week.

Why is this in general considered harder than Wednesday and Saturday? Is there a specific reason for that?

Not trying to be a smart-ass, asking a genuine question.

Is it really about being harder? I always understood that people just dislike having to watch on Sunday?

Oh, okay. Understandable then. Otherwise I don't see much difference in difficulty between Wed-Sat and Thur-Sun in terms of schedule.

What makes a slight difference is that sometimes going to far rung places in Eastern Europe and playing on shitty pitches in difficult weather can be tougher.
