Should Games be Played Boxing Day and New Years Day??

[Youvebeenrangered]

Yes!! Love football on boxing day, this one should be a special one!!!!...

[W6hoops]

Yes they should be played, its tradition, I`ve seen some fantastic games on Boxing day and new years, also some real tosh. Because of work and family commitments i have not seen us play on boxing day at home for years. (we`ve been away from home the last few years) I`m looking forward to it(work permitting that is!!) Last year we didnt have a game on new years day because of the FA cup. We`ve already lost a traditional game at easter. I cannot remember the last home game i went to on boxing day to be honest. Norwich? Brighton?

My Dad was telling me the other day that he used to watch Kingstonians v Wimbledon on Christmas morning,Probably just after the war.

my dad told that he saw Fulham beat Ipswich 10-0 on christmas day many many years ago. He reckoned the ipswich team were all half cut!!
lets hope they are when we play them eh!! lol

[qprdad]

i said yes

its tradition

Here Here.......... gets us all out of the house, and hopefully entertained!

[martyhoop]

No, could simply delay them one day!

No that wouldnt work either as that would make it a normal working day for most thus making it a midweek game with a evening kick-off more fans are likely to go if its a bank hol thats why most clubs have there biggest gates of the season on boxing day.

[waterbuffalo]

yes or no.

I say No, have endured some dreadful New Year and Boxing Day games, whilst missing time with the family

no, england should have a three week break and maybe that might help the team win another world cup. I give you 5-1 Rooney is injured this summer
and england will play bent and crouch. what is more shocking is that heskey can win more caps, he could not get into any other top side in the world.

[WeAreQPR12]

Heskey is better than Bent and crouch put together you have lost your touch living in a sh it country that don't understand the game!

Christmas day and boxing day should be spent with the family. Shamie it couldnt be the day after boxing day,

[WeAreQPR12]

Christmas day I agree but Boxing day is the perfect day to get out of the house and get some fresh air. Pete by the way voted yes he also mentioned 'it's nice to get away from all that nagging'! Could of ment anyone so don't take it personal. This was on a different post so again he is contradicting himself!

[qprdebbie]

I never nag

[hemelhoop]

Better going to football than staying at home mending broken toys and trying to follow instructions how to put something together.

[qblockpete]

I voted NO.

One week away from football, would do everyone good. At the very least play one game 27 or 28th.

As for New years Day, I've spent some of these days bored to tears and the crowd are half asleep.
