As you say, Mish, we are only speculating on the reason for the switch - what a joke of an announcement !
C'mon Leigh tell us why the game has been moved. Your fans deserve better than this !!!

| Funny reffy. You forgot the Sunday cricketers and golfer too.
Funny how people are now trying to jump on the club for the time. Oh by the way the RFL decide which kit we play in as well...no they do they really do. Featherstone have become well known in recent years for manipulating the fixtures to suit themselves.

| I don't jump on any bandwagons, I am at cricket on Saturday afternoons as I have been for over 50 years, many other people are similarly affected. Obviously people have other things to do on Sundays but I am making a personal point. With your permission of course.

| Cant see what the problem with Saturday game (granted would have been better 5-6 pm ko)
Saturday must be better day to attract more away fans, with travel and work etc
We have been given plenty of notice
I think some people just moan for moanings sake

| I agree with you.
Top footie games regularly kick off at 12 30pm at weekends.
Some won't be able to make it for various reasons but that applies to any fixture we have even when it is a Sunday at 3pm.

| Means I can now go, as Wire play the Sunday. I imagine I will be able to convince a few lads from Warrington to come along too.
Also means that Featherstone supporters will be able to get the train over if they so wish. Oh wait...

| Yes we have been given plenty of forward notice but I have to say I do find it strange that the club are not giving the supporters an explanation as to why the game has been changed to a more unorthodox day and KO time. Especially for ST holders who may now be unable to make the game at 1pm on a Saturday.

Well there is plenty of time for the club to tell fans.
Seems to me the RFL have decided the day and it can't be held in the evening because of a function at the LSV.

I think its fair to sometimes query the decisions like this (especially if you think it harms the clubs chance of increased revenue), I'm sure our CEO or BoD will give a answer and not view it as 'answering to the whingers' but more along the lines of keeping our support base happy, onside and in the loop.

| That's all it comes down to Jenky, the last line. They're never going to please everyone but a simple announcement along the lines of;
"Leigh and Featherstone couldn't agree on a date to play the game, (explain why Swinton are playing Sunday and not Leigh) therefore the RFL told us we have to play it on Saturday (and/or) at 1pm/the club has a pre arranged function in the evening so a 1pm kick was the only other suitable time."
Like I said, not everyone will be happy but at least they'll know the reasoning behind it all.
