Another summer of musical chairs

So it now looks like its another summer of moving the seats back to accommodate the athletics.

This could well mean another start to the season of three away games. Oh Joy.

Our tenancy agreement means the stadium HAS to be ready by the first weekend of the football season. There will be athletics in the stadium every July. The World Champs were a one-off that was arranged before the tenancy agreement.

Does the championship start earlier than the premiership?

It does, but not THAT long. That's only a two day thing, the World Championships were longer and later.

I think (THINK) any friendly will be ok.

Might scupper the pre-season friendly but I don’t think it’ll hit the main season.
