ALEX Neil does not believe Millwall’s fixture schedule has been in their “favour”, with no further 3pm kick-offs for the rest of the season.
Four days after a 2-1 home defeat to Norwich City, Millwall travel to West Bromwich Albion on Friday night for the first of three evening fixtures in their final five games, with the remaining two kicking off at 12:30pm.
Neil’s side also face back-to-back away trips to Stoke City and Leicester City within four days.
“That’s been a frustration of mine,” Neil said. “I’ve voiced my opinion on it. In the next four games, we play before the teams immediately next to us in the league, so they know what our result was, which I don’t think is helpful for anybody. Certainly not helpful for us.
“The fact that they’ve brought our other game forward onto the Friday means we get one less day’s rest. Again, we need to travel twice in one week, and we’re away twice. It’s certainly not been in our favour, let’s put it that way.”
