I do not disagree.
3+hrs on a school night (and probably closer to 4) to play 1.5hrs has to give the host team the advantage.
Except for the Saturday match which you can better control the time.
time line:
game at 7
minus 1 hr before game time = 6
minus 3.5 hrs travel = 2:30
game over 8:30 (not including OT and PKs)
plus 3.5 hr travel time = Midnight
and you only got to the school. you still have to get home and shower.
makes for a long day
Lord knows I have been in HH for a club game and came back...
