and it is. And I hear the same thing about basically every other ground.
Doesn’t everyone prefer evening games? I always have, ever since I attended my first.
Let’s move all football to the evenings, then we can spend Saturday (and occasional Sunday) afternoons playing football ourselves/seeing our families/doing jobs around the house/in quiet contemplation |  | | |  |

Crowds would diminish by around 30% at a minimum - away followings would be none existent - days would have to be taken off work Tuesday & Wednesday for some, kids would be less likely to attend on weekdays.
Evenings games are a brilliant novelty, but there is and hope always will be something magical about 3pm Saturday kick off in this country. |  | | |

We can have our cake and eat it. |  |

Yeah, even when the sun was blazing down earlier in the season the lights were on. It's the same everywhere now - seems a waste of electricity and at odds the the sustainability policies all clubs should have. |  |

I believe the TV companies ask for the flood lights to be on, so blame them not the clubs
Didn’t someone play a game at 1pm to avoid having to have their lights on due to the cost? Mansfield? Macclesfield? |  | | |

Can we have cheaper seats if they're fitted with pedals to keep the floodlights going? |  | | |
