Well what do you reckon? So many Yarkshire teams in SL - their fans WILL travel on Sundays but not many want to get involved with the M62 on a Friday Night. I am one of the many that hope the club will at least consider a switch.

How very dare you make a logical argument with regards to the direction of the club... I suggest you go and read, "How not to Run a Rugby League Club for Dummy's."

I think the reason behind us switching in the first place is to do with the sponsors somebody closer to the club will know but im sure, we get more money off the sponsors if we play friday

Yup, think that's correct


Personally I'd like to see us play all our games on a Saturday evening.

However, I quite like this as an alternative;

I definitely DON'T want a return to Sunday afternoons.

The reason why we moved them to Fridays is because if united or city play at home, our attendance is lower so that is why I think we play on Friday nights.

Sunday afternoons for me.... That's the day it's traditionally on... should stay that way. Sunday afternoons are boring at best. Fridays are just a pain to finish work... get home and straight back out again. Hate Fridays. I'd even go as far to say that if not Sunday afternoons... Fatboys Limb idea of Saturday would be better than a Friday.

Fair enough! icon_lol.gif

Wasn't really an idea or suggestion though, merely saying what would suit me best.

When we changed to Fridays I was against it, but now I've got used to having 2 days on most weekend to do stuff and visit places so I wouldn't personally be a fan of moving back (plus, I've saved a fortune from not spending every Sunday buying beer). That said, I do think crowds would increase - I think our biggest crowd in the last 10 years (maybe) was the Sunday home game v Leeds in 2007 - although it was an opening fixture and they always attract bigger crowds.

I'm sure some statto (KOTS) will be able to give some average crowd stats for the various steasons and game days. I'm pretty sure all our worst fixtures have been Saturday evenings.

While Sunday makes it easier for travelling fans, particularly from over the hills, to attend, I think it's poor form for any sustainable Superleague club to have to rely on visiting fans rather than attracting their own.

Although that does mean we would play Sundays in the months most likely to clash with United/City. But then again, we don't really know how much that does actually affect us.

Sunday arvo will save on the leccy bill for floodlights.
Also gives a chance for more family orientated stuff in the variety centre pre & post match.
