I mentioned Friday, they could have mixed it up, 5 from 6 on Thursday? No need at all.

There are factors in my job that mean I need to be in work on a Thursday and shift workers who do 2-10, considering that a high percentage of jobs in Warrington and surrounding area are warehouse jobs/truck driving it doesn't even put those people behind a tv.
Are Warrington/Broomhead happy about this?
Games almost guaranteed to sell out on a Friday/Saturday/Sunday played in front of 8 or 9k?

That's home fixtures only though.

Another way of looking at home games is:

Thursday: 2 games
Friday: 2 games
Sunday: 6 games
Bank Holiday Monday: 1 game

Interesting planning re the Grand Final. Manchester should be an interesting place to be considering the England rah-rah team play their final world cup pool game at the Etihad on the same night.

I stand corrected six home Sundays.

So not too bad then?

Get a grip man!! Without sky we probably would only have a part time game
Virtually all modern sport is now a slave to tv sorry matey but we just have to accept it
Oh and using ** doesn't really cut the mustard so perhaps better language might be the order of the day !!

You can bet most of our Super Dooper 8 games will be on a Thursday as well.

I cannot understand why live RL games cannot be televised on a Sunday afternoon?
Sky is very happy to televise football on a Sunday, so why not RL? When the football season is finished what reason is there not too?
Doh!

you have just answered your own question.

It mustn't be good for viewing figures, prior to pulling out Premier Sports said Sundays were out of the question.

Sky coming around here, putting money into the game and then deciding when the most popular fixtures are televised on the night's with the highest viewing figures.

Disgusting. The game was far better off with one game on Saturday afternoon courtesy of ITV.

Premiership football wouldn't have games shown on weekdays.

* works for the papers and programmes like Points of view before the watershed.

Get a grip? So do I thank Sky?
-------------
Thank you Sky, although you only think about lining your pockets you apparently saved our game so forget any anger towards you.
All those part time leigh fans and part time fev fans detest the game but thanks to you for making sure I dont have to detest watching my team.

Please Sky could you move us to a 23:00 Wednesday night slot because no one will get angry because we all have to 'accept it'

Yours gratefully

I'm angry, I have a right to be angry, I'll show my anger, this is a forum for opinions.

5 from 6 derby games on Thursday was easily avoidable, they could have had 3 on Friday and still coined it in
