Thats good then because it was the CEO on Friday that said it was 2pm but could get moved to 12.00, glad its offical now.

Apparently there is a United v Chelsea FA Cup semi final replay on ITV with a lunch time kick off when we play Workington.

Normally I would not care less about football but with us now needing EVERY penny through the gate would we be wise to avoid it Easter Monday and keep our game as a 3pm KO?

I hope we play at 2 then as I wanna watch both our game and the United match , might pop on pub and then straight on the the game

The football match will still be being played well after 2pm.

If there are any Manchester United fans watching it in the pub and it's all square with Chelsea, I cant see many of them not bothering with the final 20 mins to rush down for Leigh v Workington, can you?

Keep it at 3pm I say.

Is this the same CEO that stated that "everyone knows what time Leigh Centurions kick off" (or words to that effect) the other week ?
Our owners needs to start recognising its now 2013 and most people are capable of planning in advance - why can't they ?

that didn't take long to come back and bite him on the bum

Without knowing the reason how can you call anyone worky may have requested the change, or the LSV.
I don't care I'll still be watching Leigh no matter what time we kick off, would love to be able to watch both and hope we do ko at 3 !

I blame Salfordlad without this thread I wouldn't have known there was an issue until Easter Sunday.

I dont understand why our game kicks off at 12 on Good Friday. Play it at 6 and that gives us a good chance for a drink!!!!

What time does the Senior team KO?

hey??

I wouldn't say I'm calling anyone, being a touch critical yes, calling no .
To change a kick off time so near to the date is not what we should be doing unless totally critical (ie : TV have requested to show the game - The fixtures have been known for months), the fact that neither you, me or many others know why its officially changed also underlines just how poor our club can still be at communicating the simple things to the supporters.
Yes its minor, yes it won't affect most fans but IMHO its the simple 'own goals' such as this that we as a club have to stamp out if we want to make sure we don't continue to lose money.

This is a long shot but lets hope the the club announce the kick off times for both matches on thursday night not only before the kick off but at half time and as the final hooter has gone so no one can claim they didnt hear the annoncment

Something in the website/press/programme wouldn't go amiss as well.
