Hi all -

We will be looking to create a consistent match day thread weekly for this season, given we had the issue of some multiple game day posts last year.

Would you like to see pre-game and match day threads posted separately or one post for the week?

OP will be updated with team lists when they are released tomorrow.

Keep the score respectable and don't get flogged like Souffs.

Imo three threads would be ideal but probably tme. Pre-match, match and post-match discussion threads. Lock the pre-match an hour before kick off and start the match thread with confirmed lineups and other team news. Lock the match thread when the games over and then open the post-match and leave that open until the next round.

Great idea hope its possible

@ElMagicElMasri also lock thread creation for an hour after the game if possible. Too many rage threads created immediately after games
