But how does it effect it?
I can’t see how it does but if teams win or lose against us there then they will say it has an effect as an excuse.
It definitely affects the integrity of the competition. The whole way the league is structured relies on everyone playing each other home and away. Therefore it's a fair competition because everybody has the same situation. But if you have a team change grounds half way through, then some teams had to play them at their true home, where theoretically they have a slight advantage, whereas other teams had to play them in a neutral ground, which in theory at least, should be easier, therefore it's not fair on teams that had to play us at NWHL as opposed to a neutral ground.
Taking my spurs hat off and looking at it from a neutral perspective, i don't think anyone should be allowed to switch grounds mid way through the season at all, let alone with only a handful of games left.
