| The club havent given us indication of the actual day the majority of matches would be played yet, will this effect your decision to buy your ticket now, or will you wait till they do let everyone know when we are playing.
It wont effect my decision as I can go what ever day we play on, although my prefered choice in fact would be Sundays or Saturday 6.30 KO.

| The club has not received draft fixtures from the RFL yet. I believe they are due around the end of the month/early December. When they have that draft, they will be able to assess the best days to play the games. (Premier Sports permitting!) For example, I wouldn't have thought that the likes of Workington, and Whitehaven would want to travel for Friday night games. (nor us to them!)
I've already booked my s/t's, because I would go whenever the games are played. However, I do accept (and the survey backs this up) that a number of folks can't make Friday nights.

although I heard that the coach/players favour Fridays so they get all weekend off with their families? So do you go with what your fans want or the players and coach, or half and half, hard hard decisions to be made. That along with changes beyond our control, glad its not me making those decisions!!!

| Already renewed my season ticket though the two junior ones I've bought would most likely be unused for any evening kick offs.

Glad I'm not making the decision either! If it were me, I'd go for Sunday afternoon/Saturday evening, like you, but I suspect there's going to be a mix of days.

| The club have already told the RFL their preference is for Sundays. Hopefully easier as pitch repairs are only for 2weeks as opposed to 6 weeks last season.

Really Alan? Despite resounding evidence of our supporters preferance for Sunday match days yet again ??
It's quite simple. Either the club starts to listen to what our supporters are saying or we have wasted our time on yet another survey and the directors are mugging the loyal fans off yet again ??
Do Featherstone tell the RFL their preference is Sundays but end up with a mixture of Fridays Saturdays and Sundays? Lets get real here please !

| At the end of the day the rfl do the fixtures and claim to meet clubs preferences as best they can. Incidentally Few are very good at postponing/moving fixtures especially at easter to give themselves just one fixture instead of two. Shuffled aren'tt bad at fixture manipulation either.
If the club, as i was informed, has asked for mainly Sundays then they have listened to the fans.

| I can't get my head round this "players want/fans want" argument, it is a no brainer. The players are employees and the fans contribute to their wages. The club selects the dates to suit the fans. Simple!!.

Even with the best of intentions, there will still be televised games, clashes with Swinton, two weeks of pitch maintenance, and Bank Holiday weekends. (i.e. with two games to fit in, presumably on Friday/Monday, rather than Sunday/Monday))

| Don't be surprised if there is a clash that Swinton may play at Warrington instead.

Doubt that quite honestly.
I read the Warrington Chairman's comment about "sweating" his clubs assets in regard to making maximum use of their stadium but the Swinton Chairman knows too that his fan base is like ours ageing (it,ll happen to you ) and getting to Warrington on the bus from Swinton takes too long and fans would have to pay for rail travel as it is outside the Greater Manchester area.
With regard to the discussion about the day we will play'we will have to wait till the fixtures are out imo and I honestly think most of our home games will be on Sunday afternoons.
