They can get changed on the car park, they need to make sure they’ve paid though…

The other issue with this is logistics. When the Derby game hits full time you can bet on it taking a good 15 minutes for the pitch to clear, all the staff to get out of the way, media/Sky gang out.

Then all the Rovers and Derby players will need their post-match discussion, shower and change before leaving the stadium.

Are they going to be doing all that whilst there's another game taking place outside?

Where are the 'legends' and Old Etonians going to change? They won't be able to use the home or away dressing rooms until probably an hour after full time so are they going to be stuck in a cupboard or spare room somewhere? Access the pitch from round the back of the Riverside as the tunnel is off limits?

Pretty sure there are rules in place with the EFL regarding who can access the tunnel area before/during/after a game and time limits for that so that could easily cause a problem

All the while they are expecting good numbers of fans to sit in their seats and wait...

I say these things because I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if nobody down there has even considered these issues and just thinks there will be 22 kitted out players stood waiting in the tunnel to run onto the pitch and kick off at full time. 

And the Derby fans will need to be out of the way to allow for the thousands of fans coming up from Eton.

I've heard Boris Johnson and Jacob Rees Mogg are amongst the Eton legends taking part.

Don't worry, I'm sure there's plans for an action-packed interval between the two matches...
