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!

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

| Quote: leyther forever "Thanks for the contribution.
Not interested in any debate about number of fans, my dads bigger than your dad etc..etc... Both clubs have great followings and we should be truly grateful to each other
Have the RFL confirmed the Sat or Sun date anywhere officially?
If so please lead me there.
I am not doubting your honesty, I just deal in facts via statements and would like to see
Unless you are "in the know" and you shouldn't be releasing such information on a forum like this.
Cheers'"
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.

Update on our Challenge Cup tie - The RFL are considering all sides and will make a decision hopefully today @InfoFevRovers

The RFL can confirm that our CC fixture with Leigh is to take place on either Saturday 26th April or Sunday 27th April. More to follow
Is that good enough for you?
I highly doubt our CEO would make up this and put it into the public domain without being in the know
For what its worth, it didnt matter to me what day it was played, however i applaud my club for rejecting and then sticking to their guns on the matter on now what appears to be an unreasonable request from Leigh'"
Well you could have posted this link https://twitter.com/poskitt_craig
I don't care either on which day the game will be played but I think I will wait for something on our Official site.

| 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.

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 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....

| Quote: Alan "As stated in my earlier response to 'spener', Fev have played midweek (plus once on Saturday) at LSV in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. They should be used to it by now.
my response was to 'alans' comments about wanting to play 3pm on a sun, which I agree with, all you've done is confirmed my point about not having played at 3pm very often since you've moved away from Hilton....thanks for being a clever sh*t

Possibly the most stupid post I have read for ages, you own the ground so you can cheat better and thats something to be proud of.Plus where do you get we think its to Leighs advantage playing on Friday,both teams benefit from the extra days before our next match.I
I have been coming to your ground for decades and on many occassions Leigh have taken loads of fans and rarely is this reciprocated at Leigh by Fev whatever day the games played,though in recent years with your deserved success has seen more fans I will agree.THe Fev women with the loudest voice in RL does equate to 10 other fans in decibel level so you may seem to be bringing more these days,she is also the stupidest fan in RL as well.
