| As an Walk up fan who can't come to Sunday games, Bring it to Fridays please. I want to watch the Giants more! It's also a good that they have had a poll (which not everyone knew about) but as a club they must do what's best in there eyes and having the poll to start with must of made them think twice about keeping the Sunday games

| Don't think it would harm to trial Friday games, say 5-6 home games during the summer or something next year just to see what the response would be.

Agreed. Coupled with a flexible ticket option this could work

| Here's an idea - if we're gonna be playing the 'big sides', a la Wigan, Saints, Leeds on a Friday or Thursday night, then why doesn't the club get there first and leave the other sides who perhaps won't have the benefit of big away crowds to Sundays. We haven't played Wigan on a Sunday since 09 IIRC, since 2012 for Leeds I think - why don't we structure it like this;
Friday Night 7 - all games that would have decent away support no matter what, and this would have an appointment to view for the bigger home games, the biggest change would be moving to Thursday Night, which might affect us once, maximum twice, based on the record we've had since their introduction. The aim would be to sell tickets for these games really early with Groupon deals, special offers and the like.
Sunday Afternoon 3, Featherstone, Leigh, Doncaster, Challenge Cup Games (When not on Television) - have a few Cheaper tickets for away fans and home fans alike, and hopefully these games won't be moved. Obviously, the Easter Week games will have to be different, but where available, these games should be on Sunday afternoons, which suits older people and a subsection of the fans and families.

Somewhere in the dust of time rest the bones of the Galilean
He who was spat upon. He whose face was marred beyond all human likeness
Somewhere buried among the lies of the past rests the tomb of Yeshua
Of he who was made God in a world without Hope.
And when this son of Joseph is found. What then will the Church of Rome say?
Prepare yourself for the day is coming. And men will say
"Blessed are the wasted lives who perished in the flames of the holy war": |

| But games aren't moved "all the time". We have had 3 home games moved due to TV this year. The other two games were moved for other reasons. We have had fewer home televised games this year than we have had since 2007. In the last 7 seasons we have played at least 8 games on a Sunday every season. Clearly that is not a reason for poor ticket sales.
PS In the last 3 years we have had 5 games moved to a Friday for television, 5 out of 39 games. Not a huge amount is it.

But due to the big fuss people make the perception is it's a lot more.

Of course. Perception is everything.

I'm not moaning, I'm just saying it's a thing that happens, some seasons all the time, some seasons never. Just trying to provide a option we could go down. I will add, I'm a ST holder and I go to nye on every game.

| The home game against Widnes on 8th March has been moved to Friday 6th. This is to avoid a short turnaround before the Cas game the following Thursday.
