| Quote: SRC "You're probably not going to believe this but the club actually replaced every floodlight lamp with more powerful bulbs in the week leading up to Saturdays match. So you think it was bad this week, you should have been there for the Widnes and Donny games !
Seriously, all at the club know the lights are rubbish, but as owners of the ground the club would have to foot the bill to replace them. I believe funding is being sourced through grants etc, but the final bill will be £200,000. That kind of money buys A LOT of players. The lighting was only ever going to be an issue for the first couple of home games and won't be an issue from now on. Hopefully the new lights will be installed for 2010 and hopefully you Fax fans will be able to see the difference (if we stay up that is).
The reason all home games are at 6
Not having a dig, but why not have 3pm Kickoffs until after the clocks have gone forward then ? Not Rocket Science is it really ??

Make sure you're wearing a condom, the bulb on the end might light the way for you.

Re: The Flood Lights
Lets be glad they lasted the duration of the game, when Barrow played Blackpool last season wasn't the game abandoned and stadium evacuated after a fire in the fusebox room?

I agree with every thing said about the lights but surely the ref should have done something about the players kit. It was extremely difficult to distinquish players/team in certain areas on the field and having seen photos in the Courier I could not not believe it as whilst Barrow were in all blue their shorts and socks were dark blue. The ref could not do anything about the lights but surely he could see how similar kits we were each playing in. Why not at least get one team to change to white shorts. We might have had a better chance of seeing what turned out to be a great contest.
I think the rugby league need to get a message to refs to ensure spectators and in fact players are able to make out who is who.
