| I'd rather they didn't but as Don says, Sky decide when games are played.

| If you don't think it's a problem then press text on Sky Sports channels and see how far we are down the pecking order.
Or maybe it's just me becoming paranoid.

Can you blame them? Super League as a product is appalling these days. We used to put on a great show, the majority of games used to be amazing to watch. Now, with the speed of the ruck slowed right down, and the horrendously low standard of ALL the teams, the product itself isn't worth watching anymore.

| I'm guessing that it's more to do with there being less of a problem making sure that grounds are available come playoff time.
For instance it must be easier to make sure the DW and the KC are available on a Thursday should eith Wigan athletic and or Hull City are at home that weekend?
Just a thought.
Also, I think it might be a good thing. There's less sport for us to compete with on a Thursday . I had a quick look at Sky's Premiership games last week and noticed they seem to have more Saturday tea time games now.

| I really struggle to enjoy SKY coverage these days. I understand Hemmings thinks fans should be seen and not heard but surely they must understand they are killing the product. In general RL fans enjoy a pint or three and these days it is hard to mix that with work on a Tuesday or Friday. The big hit could be in season ticket renewals.

| Is this actually true? Is there a link to a press release confirming this?
Strange how this is apparently starting when BT Sport gets up and running...

It's also on Bilko's site, and he's well informed.

Love Rugby League is not showing that there are any Thursday games.
e.g. it gives London vs Leeds as Monday 5th August not Thursday 1st August ?

Sky need to let Carney and co do the presenting and Hemmings and Stevo do the commentary. Why they need to all do everything is beyond me.

Don't know.
Probably when Sky announce it themselves.
Thursday or Sunday doesn't bother me, better than Monday for me personally.
I do however not like chopping and changing at their whim to accommodate wendyball.

Not this season with Latics playing in Europe.
