Quote: bren2k "The change of date is a bind, but the venue is probably irrelevant to most Wakey fans - personally, I was looking forward to seeing Salford's new stadium, but it's hardly a deal-breaker.

Got to feel for Salford though - surely there's some form of compensation available to them for the loss of revenue?'"


Approx £1.2m per annum.

Quote: Wembley '83 "Why? All they have done is excercise a contractural right to televise the game. A right they have already paid for once.'"


Well to be honest yes it is their perogative, but I think that it would be reasonable of sky to help out with any costs incurred by the Salford club due to the move seeing as it for Sky's benefit. I mean what can it cost after ticket sales? Whatever it is then it will be a drop in the ocean for sky, but a significant cost to Salford.

Quote: Wellsy13 "Who has priority at the stadium?

At the KC, it's whoever's season started first. Should a City and FC game clash in August-October, we have priority. February-May, they have priority.

Moving it to Leigh when they could have had the game at a different time is shocking planning on Sky's part.'"


Exactly how it should work should the problem arise, but the problem should never arise.

RFL are planning fixtures for Super League. They ask the teams in joint stadia when their ground is unavailable. They don't put them down to play at home.

FA are planning fixtures for football season. They ask when teams in joint stadia can't play at home. They don't play at home.

Basically, it should be treated as though two teams in the same sport are playing at the same ground (like when Crystal Palace and Wimbledon shared, or indeed Saints and Widnes). It isn't rocket science.

Quote: Hessle Roader "Surely the distance from Salford to Leigh is minimal. If supporters are using this as an excuse not to go to the match then they should be ashamed of themselves.'"


I'll be going, but it's going to take me the best part of 2 hours each way on the bus from where I live.

Less distance between FC and KR. I'm sure if you ever had to play a home game on the other side of the city you'd be perfectly happy with that.

Fair play for totally missing the point, if Salford were away to Leigh in a Cup Tie there would not be 4,000 or so Salford fans there so why would you expect everyone who would have gone to the game at Salford to want to go to watch it on another ground???

If no one turns up Sky are to blame not those who decide to stay away for whatever reason and there is only one set of people who should be ashamed of themselves, the decision makers at Sky TV.
