The most frustrating part about Friday night football is that it has completely went against the reasons why it was piloted in the first place (2011?). I seem to remember the SPL and its clubs speaking of things like local fixtures with lower prices that weren't on TV. The outcome of the scheme when it first started resulted in 6,741 at Fir Park for that abandoned 0-1 game v Hibs, a truly successful argument for Friday night football. Then, of course, when all the free vouchers were handed out for the replayed 4-3 fixture, where Michael Higdon scored an overhead kick and nearly 9,000 crammed inside Fir Park (in spite of the BBC noted 8,065 attendance), the successfulness of Friday night football became difficult to gauge from that. Tbh I just wanted to mention that 4-3 game, even though it's not particularly relevant to my point, because what a night and atmosphere that was!
The main point of my post though is that fans are going to need to travel over 100 miles more for this Aberdeen v Motherwell fixture, it will no doubt cost upwards of £20 for an adult ticket unlike that Hibs game AND it's live on TV.
Genuinely was excited by the idea of Friday night football when it was first launched but now it has just become another day to be exploited.
