We don't play Fev away until Thursday 28th May - we're at home to Widnes on Thursday 14th May, with Halifax playing Sheffield at home on the 17th.

If we've agreed to play Thursday-Sunday then that's sheer lunacy, especially when you bear in mind that, but for TV, the Fev game would have been that weekend's fixture.

Yes, we get two days' rest and 'Fax get 10! for goodness' sake, it's supposed to be our home fixture - don't we get a say? (or perhaps we have!) 'Fax must be laughing at us! I've asked the Club, if the quote by NK, for the 31st, is right. If it is, he's just gone against what he said about the lunacy of playing two games in four days, at Easter!
However, help may yet be at hand - from 'Fax. If they beat Castleford, in the Cup, the next round is on the weekend of 31 May - perhaps that's why nothing has been confirmed yet?
Incidentally, I don't think the Club has come out officially, to say we aren't playing 'Fax on the 10th.
It would be good to know when the game is going to be, unless they want a programme 'plucking out of the air'!

As good as 'Fax are playing, there's no chance that they will win at Cas.
And the number of people at Batley today who were under the impression that we're still playing Halifax next week was frightening, thank god for this messageboard!
It's our home game, we should be pushing for a midweek game and try catch 'Fax cold, not giving ourselves less than 72 hours rest from one of the toughest away trips of the season!

You know that, I know that, but does the Club know that? (unless this is being 'forced' on us)
In the absence of any official comment about the game on the 10th, I changed the fixture list, in the programme, to say 'To be re-arranged'. I also have spoken to fans who believe the game is going ahead, next Sunday.

I was of the impression that the parties involved (Leigh, 'Fax and the RFL) had to mutually agree to a date to suit all, with any dispute being settled by the RFL...surely even they would realise it's a ridiculous situation to give us 2 games in quick succession, especially when considering the number of free weekends we seem to have.
And, on the subject of our games against 'Fax, does anyone know when the NRC tie is going to take place?

June the 7th - just a week after the proposed re-arranged game! Another reason for not playing on the 31st!

Has that been confirmed, Alan? Not on the fixture list on the official site and I don't recall any announcements about it.

Even I know that and agree (even though I don't want you to win  ).

On RL Official website, and 'Fax's. (mind you 'Fax's has the re-arranged game as the night before we play Widnes!)
