Anyone who wants to stay to watch the Soccer game I would advice them to go to the Leigh East ARLFC clubhouse after the 'main' game, the beer is cheap, you will be welcomed and its only a very short amble from the main LSV stadium (it is on the same site).
Noddy is right it is a confirmed 1pm KO.
We are playing like a load of strangers at the minute so you have a good chance of getting the three points on offer.

Oh and dont forget its an all ticket venue so you have to pay for the tickets at the ticket office at the front of the stadium - yes I know its a pain in the rear but the policy isn't anything to do with the Rugby Club, its a council run stadium, and the stewards are jobsworths (well some are) as well.

Further to Fred Parky's post, you can park for free, anywhere on the LSV site - but not on the roads, where you will get fined/clamped. Any of the car parks will be fine, including the hotel - Park Inn.

Spot on. Because ive done that before

Hunslet away 2006. The KO time was changed & I didnt know.

Andy, Problem is that there will be fans of both teams will not get to hear about the k/o change. Contrary to popular opinion, not everyone has the internet, and this news has come out AFTER our two local papers have been published. I reckon we are going to upset quite a few, who will turn up for a 3 pm k/o!

Just had a look on the Leigh website and the ko time is confirmed for 1pm

If they were really looking to please all rugby fans and not just their own Leigh would have moved it to late morning like some other clubs, then at least we could have got home to watch it

Avebulls won makes a very good point Cas v Bulls at 11.30 am to allow the bradford fan chance to get home and watch game.

It seems a awful lot of trouble for one fan.

Re: Sunday v Leigh kick off time : Fri Jun 25, 2010 7:19 am  

11.30 am kick off would mean we'd have to set off at around 9.30/10am to get there.

I dread to think how many people would set off still inebriated from the night before.

It makes you wonder, why this hasn't been planned well in advance. The World Cup was drawn a month before the Championship fixture list came out. Why couldn't a either/or scenario been agreed where if we won the group of got knocked out we played on the Sunday. If we finished 2nd we played Saturday night and it be published on official fixture lists accordingly.

Ah! Yes! The same RFL who organised a international match in the middle of a round of Super League at a ground with no railway station within 5 miles of it.

You're right
