Example: Wildcarded Match of Day1 have to be played by the Date of Day4;
Wildcarded Match of Day2 have to be played by the Date of Day5; ...
Exception1: If the 3 Days are divided by the Mid Season Break you have 2 weeks to play it
Would it help if the deadline for playing the postponed matches would be reduced to 2 Days? Meaning you would have only 1 week time to play it instead of the current ~1,5 weeks.
Or with even more tighter schedule so that lets say your team postpones a match tonight, you would have to play it before next thursday (i.e. deadline for the wc match would be next weeks wednesday 23:59cet).
I'm not sure if reducing the deadline would help (though, 1.5 weeks seems a bit too much imo). It's however common practice to play the postponed matches on deadline instead of agreeing to play sooner and I think there was always potential of taking advantage of that if the other team isn't keen on playing on the deadline and just forcing them to play then as you can't do anything about it, so reducing it to 1 week instead of 1.5 weeks might be harmful in that aspect.
Perhaps the wildcards could be lowered to 4 or 5 per season per team and the last time for taking wildcards could be day before offi until 23:59cet, so there's enough time for captain and players to react to it so they don't come online for nothing, because that's what's the most annoying thing, coming online for offis and finding out you don't have a game like every other matchday.
So all in all it should be stricter, but it's pretty hard to balance it out and be fair to everyone.
Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Wise men speak because they have something to say, fools because they have to say something.
No one is more hated than he who speaks the truth.
Courage is knowing what not to fear.
Showing off is the fool's idea of glory.
