I was looking at it form the other angle in that with the current format, with a player short you would only be 1-0 down where as with the new format you would be 2-0 down . . The reduction of the team size from 7 to 5 makes a little difference . .

. . Like I said I have never eben a fan of the pick again rule but I am worried that more fixtures would not be fulfilled if the rules were not so lenient . .
