They've already chosen to televise the Keighley v Fev tie. |

Sunday rugby is only a recent development. Rugby is traditionally played on Saturdays.

exactly, not long when you consider how long the game of rugby has been played. the game has been in existance for longer than 40 years. the game was forward thinking enough to change then, why not now. |

The ' forward thinking ' back then was more a case of " Lets play Sundays at 3 pm, the pubs stop serving at 2 , but we can still sell beer "  |

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970%E2%80 ... gue_season
I was at our first Sunday game suprisingly enough and crowd was about 6000 although I recall all ladies were allowed in free and there were a few religous fundamentalists outside the ground predicting the end of the world being nie.
Since then tastes have changed. Like a few older supporters I can go any day but my personal preference would be for Saturday evenings.

England play Sweden in Euro 2012 on the same Friday(15th June) which makes Friday a non-starter for the Quarter Final. |

Either that, or turn it round and see it as an opportunity? |
