Especially when he can build himself up as some sort of 'hero to the fans' in the process.

Yes you are probably right - but no one complaining and at least someone out there keeping us informed and updated even if they might not be the person doing the spadework

From your end there appears to have been very little said from the very start

I can't wait to hear the RFL's rationale as to why Friday night games are against the rules!

So if Saturday is out due to a wedding it makes for an interesting Sunday, or Swinton have been moved to Sedgely

Both teams normally play on a Sunday, one assumes both teams do this as historically that is the day which is the best interest for their respective business, Friday night games tend to have lower attendances, why should Fev agree to potentially lose revenue, just because LSV want a change? Perhaps they put up a quite a valid case.


Ps we played Pat’s on a Friday…………………..it was also a reverse fixture

Who does he think he is? Marwan k?

LF,

Spot on for me. I suspect last year the away following from Leigh & Fax probably matched the total we saw from all the other teams combined last year at POR. Alway great to see the strong following that Leigh bring. Hope you bring a 1000 the next time you play at POR.

I for one can't wait for the two games against Leigh coming up they should be great games. I will endevour to get to both games no matter what day the CC game is played.

Yours in Sport.

Mind you I have read on the Keighley Board that Swinton v Keighley will be on Friday evening.

Seems you can find out if you search the Swinton Official website.

Why not play Sinday and transfer the corporate to Park Inn or Leight east just a thought

Don;t think so if you had paid for a box at the LSV

You never once brought 5/600. The reason we were at home on those Thursday nights is because we topped the league, had you topped the league then we would of been travelling, that was our advantage for been the most consistent team in the season. As for low crowds / shared gates one of the plus points in owning your own ground is we get to say how many attend, only an idiot would declare the correct crowd on a shared gate. Our chair is no idiot, and anyone who thinks playing the game on a Friday will give you some sort of an advantage is also an idiot

I remember Leigh taking over 1000 fans to POR. I think it was a CC tie in 2003 ??

We lost 28-20. Can anyone confirm this ??

I would hazard a guess because they only want to deal in facts rather than trying to give a running commentary on what are generally supposed to be private discussions.

Think you're right btw Snowy on that one. And wasn't there a load of sponsored coaches last year that would have catered for a good few hundred? I mean if we can take 700 to Rochdale with only two LISA coaches....
