| If it's the Saturday then my carload from yesterday won't be there as we've already got train tickets for watching Bolton at Sheffield Wednesday.

| Leigh Centurions play RL at 3pm on a Sunday afternoon - that is factual.
If we are drawn at home in a attractive Challenge Cup fixture v Featherstone Rovers then it makes perfect sense to keep our 3 PM KO times especially as gates are up this season.
If you add to that Featherstone also play on Sundays (so its game day for there fans too) I'd say we'll see the biggest away support at Leigh for a very long time and a pretty good pay day for both clubs.
Saturdays was promised (but thus far nothing has happened) so I could understand a Saturday game (although it has risks during a football season).
As for Fridays, I'd hope we have learned lessons as Leigh lost support (and finance) on Friday night games when we had nearly a seasons worth not to long ago and every 'one off experiment' playing Fridays since has seen us post poor gates (it also means people get out of the habit of going and lose interest - that's the challenge the BOM still have and will have for another year whatever day we play on) so I really do hope the OP is wrong as it would represent a massive backward step by the current BOM and one that has risk.
Hopefully the BOM will confirm 3PM Sunday soon or come out and let us know the reasoning if we have decided to abandon our usual match day.

| Quote: Dick Jones "According to total rl fans Swintons forum on there says they're playing Sunday us Friday ............
Hope this is not true, hardly hard Fev fans will come'"
Our game has not yet been finalised, negotiations with Fev and LSV are ongoing but we will aim to nail this quickly as possible and begin sales and marketing.
Great cup tie in prospect regardless of weather it's a Friday, Saturday or Sunday.
Whatever we do won't suit everyone unfortunately but its important people realise we are listening and doing our best as a board for our fans.

| Well I'll be there and I want us to pick the best day to get maximum attendance , as playing Friday night won't give us any advantage , Fev will be the same team whatever day we play them .

Its important to understand that its not as simple as us just picking anything to suit us as a club, we don't necessarily have that luxury and also Fev have to agree to any proposals or it goes to the RFL panel to decide which obviously takes more time.
We have to consider the opinions of the fans which as a board we pride ourselves on doing and also consider what will deliver the best crowd like you say, but in the same breath we are governed by many other factors and it isn't as straight forward as it seem.
We are looking to get this nailed ASAP and will communicate out ASAP.
Cheers

Its our home but other factors outside of Leigh and Swinton also determine what day the game will go ahead.
