A damned nuisance this. It stops momentum and then we have to play the rearranged game in midweek meaning 3 games in 7 days. The same dill happen in November

It is what it is. We're not having it in isolation. Swings and roundabouts; sometimes we could do with the rest & getting some important players back.

Agree, but fortunately we are probably the best equiped to deal with it because as long as we don't have too many injuries our "second string" is probably stronger than anyone else in the league. We have good cover in almost every position and as shown on Tuesday we have a system that every can fit into.

With that in mind, can the club choose to play the game. I know we wpuldnt, its just a hypothetical.

Is it written that a clubs can cancel a game with three callups but can choose to go ahead.

Believe they can as its not mandatory to call game off with x amount of call ups .... but obviously if lose international players it means your losing your best players so not in teams interest to play game

They can play the game because a request has to be put in to postpone it.

But if our opponents, Barnsley in this case, also have three players on international duty and put a request in then we can't block it.
