Happy with the fixtures - Would rather kick off with the so called toughies and Widnes at home is better than playing away on the plastic. What a last game if we had to go to the hole in the ground and need a win !!!!

I see that the TV games in middle 8 are Saturday 3pm kick off. If there is any scope for teams to request a change I would suggest they do.
The football season will be well underway by then and will have an impact on attendances.
Salford aren't the best supported team and I'm sure many of their fans will be City or United followers. I can't see them bringing many to The Shay on Saturday 5th September.
Although that weekend is Euro Qualifiers so no top flight football.
However I know numerous loyal HX RLFC followers who are involved with amateur football and rugby and a Saturday 3pm kick off would rule them out.
Cue now everyone replying about how rugby league was traditionally a Saturday 3pm sport.
I personally think Saturday early evening would be a good kick off time for the TV games.
But I fully understand you can't please all the people all the time.

The early Sat evening would clash with the live football on Sky, I guess as they can't show a game at 3 pm on. Saturday it's a chance to have some live sport on since they lost the Yawnion.

Not a fan of Saturday rugby at all.I've only got a hour to get to Wakey as town are at home that day too.Neil and his coach passengers need to be aware of this too.

I'm O.K. for the Hull game but some wheeling and dealing is in order to get to Wakey and the Eagles game.

Good john wilky last looked out
on the pitch at salford.

deep and crisp and even
brightly played the lads that night
though the frost was cruelllll
when poor swinton scored a try

Traditionally very true, but so far this season despite how bobbins we've been we've travelled in pretty good numbers. I think its because people find it easier to get to away games. You're probably looking at between 500-1000 travelling fans
2k at Warrington
1.1k at Huddersfield
1.5k at Leigh in the cup
800 at Widnes
I personally cannot wait for a Saturday 3pm kick off away in Halifax  |

As bobbins as you've been I hope you bring plenty, and you'll all be very welcome.

Personally I'm not bothered in what order we play the other teams in the 8's, after all we have to play everyone once,maybe we won't get promoted and realistically it would be very hard , but I feel we are capable of beating at least 2 maybe 3 teams,and upsetting some fans dreams,bring it on .

Nothing to lose and the pressure is all on the 7 other clubs who should all beat Fax. Fax will realistically not get promoted but I can see us beating a couple of teams- would be great if one was Bradford!!

I think that Dudson, White, Gerrard, Clarkson, Galea and Cahill, backed up by Manafuk(wot's his name?), Tickle, Heremaia and Isa may disagree with you.  |
