friday nights leave the weekend free for the family, but cross pennine travell is a no go really. plus you can stop out for a beer and curry on friday.

Plus what about the youngsters ? I know there is no school the day after but my kids won`t let me take our grandchildren to a night match.
It breaks the routine next news they find something else to do Sunday and they are lost to rugby.

I'd go Friday eve. Last few games we've sorted lifts to games and taxi's back to have a few beers and tag a night out on the back.

I've got a young family and Sunday's seem to be the only time when we can all just chill out, get BBQ on, and get the paddling pool out.

If we are playing well then there is no contest....I'll P the wife off.....but last few years I've actually chosen to stay at home with the family, have a few beers in the sun, and stick Radio Leeds on.

I have to say, that's in the past now and I'm hooked again, but I think there are so many other things competing for peoples time on a weekend. What's competing for peoples time on a Friday eve? A night out? It's much easier to combine a Friday night out with the boys with rugby than a Sunday family afternoon with rugby.

The only downside to this is that my 4 year old comes to games with me and he enjoys it. Last week I put him in a taxi and sent him home on his own and it nearly caused divorce
