Interesting line in Paul Barber's quote given some on here were saying "we've done it before, we can do it again"...

“This included additional travel options or moving the match to earlier or later in the same week, with Sunday afternoon the latest the fixture could be played on that weekend due to the international break, but it simply was not possible to play the match with a full capacity crowd in attendance."

Any guesses on when the game might happen?

I think there are fixtures in the Premier League, the EFL Cup and European competitions all the way through to the World Cup break.

So, it will have to be in the New Year unless the clubs/Premier League can get dispensation from UEFA to play the game on a European midweek. This didn't use to be possible, but exceptions were made last season to squeeze in all the Covid-enforced postponements.

Oh great, another thing to piss me off on a really shitty day all round personally.

I know it had to happen with the strike but the long gap between games with the totally dull and pointless international beak thrown in is just really crap. I hate Albion-less weekends.

Joke ground. Such a shit place to visit

Honestly this isn't coming from a Palace bias point of view. But blimey that ground is a ballache. Train strike or no train strike.

It'll be FA Cup 2nd Rd Qualifying for me then!

Just deciding between going to Worthing away at Slough or Lewes home to Three Bridges.

Lewes just might win out - not for the shorter distance - but for the pie, mash, mushy peas and gravy!!
