Friday nights all the way for me , keeps the weekend free for time with the family

I agree with the above post,time to end Thursday night and we do need to be pushing for terrestrial tv involvement.

Re: Wigan game : Thu Jul 18, 2019 6:52 am  

All TV games should be stand alone games no other games should be played at the same time. Why can't we have a Saturday afternoon game KO at 3 and a Sunday Night game KO at 5/530 after the other games have finished plus people who travel to the Sunday night games can get home at a decent time. Love it if Channel 4 got it give the game more coverage for people who don't get charge ridiculous prices to watch it.

Saturday night makes sense for Catalans due to the slightly cooler weather and attracting away fans, but you are right it gives them an advantage with the regularity of fixtures, Hull can also argue that this move doesnt help them attract away fans, I dont blame any Wigan fan for not bothering with the M62 on a weeknight.

6 of us were coming down from Edinburgh for this game train tickets purchased . That's £500 down the Swanny River . Mental also that Hull now have a short turnaround after a tough semi final and Wigan have 2 weeks off . The fans just don't count in any shape or form in Sky's eyes.

Similar to 2017 when we played a Thursday night game at Headingley five days after the Challenge Cup final, scheduled when the semi finalists were known.

Whilst inconvenient, you can change your tickets for a fee can't you?

I was bringing two car loads from Manchester. Same happened in May.

I aren't going to bother making plans for Saturday games again.

Lots of us have been inconvenienced by this fixture being changed. Whoever is responsible should be reimbursing you for your expense. It's an absolute disgrace. I am disappointed that I cannot attend now as a result of the change but so relieved that I'm not out of pocket like you. Suggest you contact the club and the RFL and seek recompense.

It depends on the type of tickets purchased. Some you can, some you can't.
