I would imagine the club gets reimbursed any extra cost by the broadcasters. but yes, it is bloody ridiculous and totally unacceptable. Our supporters seem to get shafted time and time again in this respect, several times each season.

if you do email them, please ask why the game is being moved to a Sunday.....given the only events of note in the Euro sports calendar are The Open (BBC) and the FINA swimming from Rome
Bradford Wigan is scheduled for the Sunday afternoon....why nor move that?

There is no Super League game scheduled for the Saturday night! The Open and an Ashes test are on that Sat but if broadcast at the scheduled kick off time of 20.00 (UK) 21.00 (local) there would be no conflict. WHY HAVE THEY DONE THIS.
Don't think the Bootsn'all email address is relevant it needs to go to whoever looks after the schedule.

| I couldnt find the email address for sky sports so went on to their web page and emailed the sports editor and programme scheduler. I will write to League Express and add my thoughts. We should all bombard them like you say.
Boots n all will be relevant for the show during the week. Stevo is quite vocal about London so hopefully enough complaints may get a mention.

Vocal he may be but Sky pay his wages, you think it will get a mention?

| I cannot believe this but lets use it as a rallying call for Us to get the 2 points and make some real noise there. Also can anyone recommend a bar before the game ? normally Perpignan dead on a Sunday

| This changing of fixtures is becoming a joke-not just for the Quins.

I'm not defending this decison by any means, but why not go over there and try and have a decent time, seeing as you've paid your money?
I can understand your frustations though, this is becoming ridiculous. I am very glad I had no intetion of going to France and feel very sorry for those that have been screwed over by this

| I don't want to go over there as I have been 8 times in the last few years for holidays and games but feel this time it would rub salt in the wounds by having to go home the day the game is played and I wouldn't even be home in time to watch on SKY. If annoys me no end as my husband and I are contract and self employed workers and we have lost three days work each by boooking this break, which means three days each without pay. This does not take into account flights, car park, accommodation etc etc (which applies to all fans) I cannot make this up because the time off is already written into the contract and cannot be changed. My husband may be able to pick up other work but as his work is usually a week at a time it could be difficult to pick up a three day job. I just cannot see the need to go, the reason I looked forward to it has been kicked from under us. I really truely feel let down by the club here not just the RFL and SKY. Before you all say I can't blame the club I do there is absolutely no way Leeds, Saints, Wigan etc would have stood for it. The RFL and SKY know we would be the lesser threat so it is us that have to take it on the chin once again. Lister I never thought I would ever agree with you about the club but you are 100% correct there is no thought, no planning and no care for supporters. If anyone out there wants to take over the running of the supporters movement please pm me as I have no intention of giving my time, energy, money or commitment to a club that does not appreciate supporters. Extreme you may think, possibly it is but unless we do something this will continue to happen. Next year how many people will fork out to go away. How many people will travel again this season. This is the second change in as many weeks. I cannot to just write off this type of expense and as you have guessed my anger knows no limits on this. Frustrated, bitter these words cannot begin to describe how betrayed I feel. Some of you may feel my reaction is over the top, that's your choice but it only begins to scratch the surface of my feelings this season.

Fair play, couldn't agree more - this really stinks, and the pathetic tiny news article on the club website, with no real reference to inconvenience and cost or any degree of empathy is a disgrace. Add in the fact that there doesn't seem to be a major reason why Sky can't show the game on Saturday, no big clash etc etc, and it gets worse - surely if someone had bothered to push back on this Sky would have re-considered. I bet no one even tried.

| Well, I had no plans to go to this game, but you are spot on Briali1.
The club's announcement of this change is just a bald statement of fact, not a mention of any thought for affected supporters. VERY POOR customer relations.
