Anyone else got 3 consecutive away games or is this part of a conspiracy against my teAm?

You get as many away games as you get home games, so it can happen they are a little clustered together. Nothing unfair, just need to plan a bit so you don't get in money trouble.

I had that happen for I think four or five seasons in a row at one point. In the past, when the effects of the last game were more important to the fan survey, it was actually pretty nice as long as you could afford it, since if you lost the first and/or second one, it wasn't subsequently followed up by a home game with reduced attendance, and later on you'd have a couple of back to back home games.

The main thing to keep in mind is that you pay salaries twelve times each regular season, and you have eleven home games. It's possible depending on your conference to have three straight road games or three straight home games thanks to interconference play (at least at the front end, never checked the back end).

I know what you mean fella. I think I may have ruffled a few GM feathers, they thought the status quo would be usurped.
Naturally the best way to respond is giving a team 3 consecutive Away games.

I think it can only happen at the front end. The way the fixtures seem to be designed is to give everyone a home game in the first two fixtures. Those fixtures are reversed after interconference play, and because you never get two interconference games in a row either home or away, its impossible to get three in sequence.

I believe you are absolutely right. Nice catch!

I got 3 road games too during my promotion bonus even. I assumed this and worse would happen though.

Everyone has at least a week without a home game. Those that have to "suffer" twice, get a week with two home games. Half the league has no game the first saturday, and half during all star week. Its impossible to be otherwise.

No. Plan better.
