I'm not keeping a year by year record so that may be true. If as Libby says Friday night games have returned after a 5 year gap, then I can remember games at least as far back as 12 years to that. If there were gaps in between then fair enough. But the wider point is that if it is all down to TV ratings then there's no reason why it shouldn't have applied then as well when CL games were due.
There has rarely been PL Friday night footy though many of the first live games were friday nights they were on BBC/ITV before PL , and the TV schedules are announced well in advance . Now i agree that traditionally English clubs have been disadvantaged by lack of rest time before the CL midweek matches compared to European teams but since they also receive far more TV money than almost anyone they can't moan to much.
 
Just imagine if those 2 dropped points in that draw is the difference at the end.

Libby will be bookmarking that I'm sure <whistle>

You are right though, its not good enough. Next season we need to aim for 100 points to stand any chance of winning the league.
91 atm, pottentially 97 at the end and its not good enough with too many dropped points.

Respect on the one hand because that is a sterling performance (not over yet either) and done playing great football... and then pmsl for getting so many points and still missing out on the title which seems to be alluding Livpl in the PL.
