Unless you happen to have a seated season ticket in which case because the date that you had to renew to get your seat comes before the fixture release date which somewhat forces your hand (I've asked the club about this on Twitter)! It was understandable in previous years but they could have easily held the seats until after the announcement this year.

On the Thursday night issue, I'm with Yed. The "premier" fixtures from a Wire point of view all on Thursdays is just not fair to all the fans. Mixing them around could have easily been done.

I'd be interested to see the attendance figures for the Thursday games last year v the previous seasons and if it has had an impact on the revenues the club is generating.

In an earlier thread there was a suggestion that the Catalan game (28 Feb 2015) might take place in Barcelona, I note on the main WW Website the ground is noted as "Stade Gilbert Brutus".

Does this mean the game will definitely in Perpignan?

I could do with knowing to finalise travel plans.

Yes that is a bit rough and, one would have thought, avoidable.

If we look at the fixtures from the team's perspective, most of the big games on a Thursday are kind of a blessing as they get a full week (or more) to recover.

...and 4 or 5 days to prepare!

True.. But other than playing Leeds & Saints back to back with a short turnaround, the games before the "big" games are relatively easy.. on paper.
