That's not what it says.
McNamara releases one of the Leeds players and there's no issue.

| Quote: Surreyben "The RL Express letter was rather ridiculous as they called on Quins to do "the decent thing" and switch the game to a 3pm kick off. For goodness sake, if everyone of us knew what time this game was going to kick off ahead of the season starting, why on earth is it such a shock to Leeds?'"
The point is .... No-one apart from Quins KNEW it was going to be a 5pm start.
Leeds apparently were unaware of the change until the tickets arrived the other week ....
Has the proper proceedure for a fixture change been undertaken with the RFL ? If so, then you've got nothing to worry about. Then again, the 'official' RFL website was still listing the game as a 3pm start in to the early hours of last Wednesday morning.
The other question is just how many fans are the Skolars going to put on your gate ? Hundreds at the most .... Kick them off at 1-ish, the main game at 3-ish then everyone in to the bar at 5pm for the England Vs Fance game and whoever's standing can watch the Wendyball World Cup game afterwards ... Makes perfect sense to me.

So, you're a Fleet Street editor with one hack to cover RL .... Which game do you send him to ?
Send him Ooopp North and ensure that your double-headed game gets virtually no coverage at all ....
Send him to The Stoop and ensure that the RFL are on your back for not covering an International, blah blah 'international football' ... blah blah 'pinnacle of the game' etc.

However, under RFL bye-laws, Leeds have the right to ask for the game to be postponed ....
Given the previous comments about the game and the kick off time, how much damage would that do Quins by swapping from a lucrative weekend game to a midweek match, where the northerns will probably bring very few with them ?
Would the Skolars Vs York game still go ahead on its own at The Stoop or would you kick them back up to North London ?
Would you be able to attract possible replacement sponsors, if the weekend corporates withdraw ?

| Unbelieveable....I said it when the international was announced and I will repeat it now, the Double Header should have been arranged AFTER the RL international fixture and the wendyball draw.......as it is, the double header could turn out to be Skolars playing at the stoop...er......that's it
And before I get jumped on...I know WE THE FANS have no control over it, but it does make you wonder exactly who is doing what at the club.
How hard can it be to liaise with the RFL? Surely when permission was asked to move the Skolars home game to the stoop the RFL would have mentioned the International? Surely, someone would have looked at the game schedule for the wendyball comp?
Sorry........but this is a fiasco. 30 years in the making and they manage to make a pigs ear of it..........and if Leeds do postpone it, what then?

It would appear no-one did in the six months between announcing the double-header and this mess coming out in to the open. Hence all the Leeds fans making travel plans based on 'official' websites, which up until last week and the letter in the League Express all had the game down as a 3pm start.
I understand Leeds, when they finally got the tickets the other week, weren't happy about not being told the 5pm start time and were raising the matter with the RFL.
Now if someone had been half clued up and either contacted Leeds or bothered to check the kick off times the club held against the ones on the RFL website, there might not have been the situation of people writing in to League Express and all the hassle on here.
Now the international call-ups have come along and given them the excuse, who's to say they won't 'turn the tables' and postpone the game a week on Saturday ?
Playing what might be considered as one of the more lucrative home fixtures on a Wednesday night will seriously dent the revenue the club makes from the game ....

Quote: east stander "Is it on Sky?'"
No. They've already chosen two live SL games for that weekend as well as the England v France game, and Hull KR away won't be on Sky the following week either:
www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12944,00.html
I can't see any logic whatsoever for moving it to Sunday. I can't believe any players are going to play on two consecutive days and it would just mess up a lot of people who've already made plans to attend at the original time.

That would suit my lot because they will be in London from the Friday until the Monday, but I dont see what the difference is the "England" players will not play in the game even if it is on the Sunday instead surely?
