playing Wednesday and Saturday isn't ideal either, I'm sure Raymond Verhaijen (spelling is probably very wrong) used to go on about the importance of having more than 2 rest days between matches, it was something like teams with 3 rest days are 30% more likely to win than teams with 2 rest days.
ok he was a bit of a gobshite in general but seemed convincing about this matter
