They’re all happy to take the increase in pay that these extra games are funding though, aren’t they?

I’ll respect their complaints if they state that they’d be happy to take a pay cut in line with reduced fixtures.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Who's reducing fixtures?
They just don't want them increased. And they don't just work on game days FFS.
WTF is wrong with you people?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think you should try reading my post again before asking what’s wrong with other people.

Not quite sure you grasp what people mean by more physical, Brexit guy. It doesn't mean people punching eachother in the ribs.

I still don't get what you mean by MORE though. How many more games do you want and why?

If you read comments from Rodri and others, they clearly state that the potential number of fixtures is currently too high.

That means they think it should be fewer.

Right?

Double-headers 3 times a week. Squads of 60+. Just fire them when they're injured get new ones in. Easy peasy.

While there might be fixture congestion at certain points, it is not so different to someone working in a boarding school. They might have lots of lessons and duties at certain points, but then they have long periods of recovery in holidays.

Not to mention being rodgered senseless in the cold showers 8 nights a week.

Of course it’s possible, but the rest of society have to do the job they signed up for. If you told your employer you’re doing too much and you want it reduced to say a 4 day week, they might agree but they’ll pay you less. I don’t see any players advocating a pay cut for playing less( do you ?

Who's doing this? The Beatles? Is this the controversial version of '8 days a week'?

Are you angry at things that you are just making up? Or do you know that players wouldn't be happy with slightly less money for slightly fewer fixtures?

Actually reducing fixtures is a grate idea. If we had 45 minute games we could have 210 games a season

Also who's suggesting 20% less games? That metaphor doesn't work at all

It is not good for mental health of the players playing so much.
