So basically the sponsores dictate what the club does not the 2000+ fans on the tearrace, fair enough. I wonder how many people don't buy a season ticket this season? and does it really matter if they don't?

the club in the past have done a couple of big surveys seeking fans views (both new and lapsed) on what kick off times they will prefer. On both occasions I suggested Saturday's at 6:30pm KO personally, however the results of both were by all accounts for Sunday 3pm and by some margin.

* The first Survey was undertaken by a team led by Professor Dale c2005.

* The second was as recently as last year (IIRC) and Allan Rowley confirmed the response voting for Sunday was more or less emphatic.

Make of that what you will but I do agree with Tipster Ste if we are going to be bold then we should move all fixtures to a new game day / time ( TV fixtures excluded) so the public are fully aware when Leigh RL play all their home fixtures and can plan accordingly. The new day / time will very much become an habit.

TBH I can not believe We are now in the same position as 2005 where the common held belief from our SL campaign was that having no regular game day was a resounding failure.

I really do hope it's a success but already I have work and family commitments that mean I (Along with Sophie) will be missing more games than usual next year. As a result I am sorry to say I also will be paying on the day next year.

Right, just an idea but ideas welcome - what if in a hypothetical situation we declared Thursday nights as our 'preferred' game day? We'd then have a pattern of knowing when the games are taking place, regardless of TV interference. How does the corporate for a Thursday compare with a Sunday?

Like i have said what does it matter we think? If something aint Broke..........

But we are broke, that's the problem

Apparently Millward wanted to play Friday's last year but was shouted down on this.

Ian wanted to play Fridays from the moment he landed, wonder if he will get his way at Cas?

Coaches want whats best for players but at the end of the day RL like all sport is an entertainment for the fans so they are the most important.

As long as the extra corporate makes up for a loss in your average fan then sadly I don't think the club will see it as an issue. Money talks.

No your right mate but like i keep saying they only play rugby for people to watch its a form of entertainment so if no fans went to watch what would be the point? I think some are enjoying the 'Prawn Cocktail' side of things, anyway it seems sad that after 25 years of watching home and away i can't be d with em now!

We better build a new banqueting suite then mate based off the small amount we do make per head on the corporate side then we would need to shift some meals to make up for the ordinary fan

Don't forget the ticket income Ste plus obviously trying to get such companies involved with the club as sponsors etc.

Agree about the additional sponsorship mate, but for the entire basic corporate day we make less than the price of a matchday ticket

The club have made a decision, the best one they could make under the circumstances they were in. IMO after seeing some of the posts on here, it could be a blessing in disguise for the club, a case of out with the old and in with the new, I cant actually believe some of the posts on here because the games have been changed to a different day, they haven't been moved to another stadium 160 miles away, or had HUGE increase in prices, WE ARE JUST PLAYING ON A FRIDAY. I cant undertand why people that can attend the games on a Friday are saying they won't be going. Theres a huge market of people that dont/ can't go to Sunday games, just hope the club will do something to bring them in. Im also pretty sure that the crowd average will rise again this year.

I'll be joining the Touchdown Club as soon as I possibly can, and hope others are too.
