From a personal point, i'm up at 4.45am for work Mon-Sat so it's a NO for me....and the amount of children that will miss out too because of school. I'd prefare Sat or Sun TBH...In reply to "diehardofowld" in fairness to your comment about the "Floodlit Trophy" that was a cup comp from what i recall so it was separate from the league...

Our back up games for these are Wigan (H) on the Sunday (Magic weekend) after the game at the champions and Wakey (A) on the Sunday after we play Wire.

To be fair, the home crowd will be little effected and the fact that it's against Warrington will mean the away attendance should have little effect either.

Same for Warrington at home to Catalan, they bring so few anyway.

On a Monday night in the middle of the summer hols it's not too bad. Monday night in the middle of feb with school in the morning would be a different senario.


Like I said the home fans it's not too much of a stretch, even with work the next morning the majority won't see 10pm for bed too late. There will be some fans put out who have early starts, like posties, but posties also work saturdays so would have the same issue and not everyone has a saturday or sunday morning off, so again they have to cope with games as and when they are planned.

It's last minute alterations that are more of an issue than something planned and stuck to months in advance.

The DW is relaying the pitch? The Latics need to prepare for the lower divisions? The club complained about Monday night league and so the RFL complied?

We will never know.

I'm also interested in just how many cross Pennine games there are.

They are also only one of the few teams that will only get a three day break before their next game.
