Pic taken from Facebook. Hopefully not spoiled by an ad as I have requested that those ads are removed. In fact ads should be reducing on the network as there has been a change of management at FM.

Clapton O = Leyton Orient
Re: Cardiff City fixtures. 1939/40 season
Anyone know why there were so many games in Sept and March?
Was it to fit as many midweek games in as possible while it was still light?
Re: Cardiff City fixtures. 1939/40 season

Bristol City home & away in a three day period, and of course Clapton Orient on Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
