We didn't have complaints about "fixture congestion" when there were 24 teams in the top flight unlimited replays in the fa cup and two legged League cup ties as the European competitions were limited to 3-4 teams and they were straight knockout cups... Except of course there have never, ever been 24 teams in the top flight! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the point still stands about reserving of midweek for the increased number of European matches is what is causing the fixture congestion and driving this proposal.
