| Friday is reet enough, not sure why Fev are getting so worked up about it considering how many times we've gone over there midweek. A few of theirs on Twitter seem to have started the annual "we own our ground" jamboree a little early as well. Yawn.

| Friday nights work ask Wigan, Leeds etc etc
Best game as a Leigh Fan and atmosphere in recent years was Friday night against Catalan Dragons.
Added bonus is Fev don't want it, don't like it and if we want to progress and get an even bigger draw and a real money spinner next round then we need every advantage possible.
Players tweeting that they want Friday also.
Friday night under floodlights good old fashioned cup tie with loads of biff oh yes please

With respect are we saying that Swinton Lions (as a non local RL team) and a function have determined when Leigh Centurions (a club trying to get in SL) play there matches ?
The Fev guy makes a number of valid points.
Aside from the Grand Final I'm sure we have played a Cup tie or a game on the same day as Swinton Lions as a double header.

Hard to see any option than Friday night at moment guys.

Why are the LSV taking Sunday bookings during the rugby season when they have two RL teams playing there?

I would imagine as it's because they are a business like any other who need to generate income and cover operating costs on a facility that isn't merely a RL stadium but a multi purpose/ use facility?
Had Swinton and ourselves been out of cup would be they be expected not to be open for business?

| The real question is not about Featherstone and their attitude to Fridays it is why the LSV have given priority to Swinton, if it is because the LSV have allowed somebody to book a 'small' function on a Sunday during the season then someone should be sacked. I wonder if the LSV management have been caight with their pants down because they didn't expect Leigh or Swinton to be still in the Challenge Cup.

Yes they're a business but surely it's not too much to ask of them to 'hold' the Challenge Cup 5th round Sunday in case one (or two) of their two RL clubs get a home tie.
If you ask me it shows a complete disrespect to both ourselves and Swinton.

I also make you realise that the fact that it is in Leigh doesn't mean that the Centurions won't be kicked out if the business gets a better offer.

| Leigh Centurions have NO say in how the Wigan Sports Village operates.

| This thread has just confirmed that I'm better off not on here, over and out!
Enjoy the game whatever day/ night it's on.
As Del Boy would say

| Well its no secret i HATE friday night rl. Will i be present if we reluctantly have to play fev on a fri, of course i will, will i be happy, no way. So swinton can play on a sundy, cos their small crowd wont impact on this function, i think all fans who hate fri rl should make the effort to swell the swinton/keighley gate, i know i will go to that game. It looks like to me, even if swunton had not been drawn at hone, we still would not of been able to use the lsv.
