I reckon that possibly the most successful route you could take would be to try and get the Catalan club to veto changes to their home fixtures, based on police/French TV commitments. Not sure that they would. especially for our derby rivals, but they are probably the most effective source to tap into here.

The whole process wasn't designed to stop anything from changing.....just making sure that the other 12 UK based SL clubs were made aware of what SKY were up to......
Mr Levy was on the list (hope his English is better than my French) and he will be able to do the maths.....90% fans bu99ered, 2,000 wire fans last year become 200........= Mon Diou!!!!!(sic)

Seems I'm the only person not to receive a reply. I wrote to SKY Sports, Boots N All, RFL, Ady Spencer, Total Rugby and Paul Blanchard. Total Rugby replied imemdiately as they want to print my mail and Paul Blanchard responded. Others - well what a surprise - nothing.

Seems the club sanctioned the fixture so Craig Spencer said on the radio tonight

They said they didn't expect many to be travelling-cheers Quins

Is that Paul Branchard a scouser?

He was on the radio tonight talking sh*t about the away game.

Don't know but Paul Blanchard maybe icon_wink.gif . To be fair the club can do nothing apart from tell the RFL they didn't like it. However it was concerning that the RFL chap said that the club had raised concerns but then said there wouldn't be many traveling. I would be very disappointed if the club said that but maybe it is the RFL putting some spin on it.

Still a deafening silence from Sky - why don't they say why it can't be on the Saturday! Have they only got one set of cameras?

I’m still awaiting my cut and paste reply from Craig Spence, given that he seems to have done his selective mail out of the same email to a few at random today I wouldn’t be surprised if I don’t see it.

Regarding his interview with Rammo tonight, I can’t decide if it’s the RFL trying to shift the blame, or whether Quins really did under estimate our away support. Apparently, according to Mr Spence, Quins suggested that those who would have traveled were most likely to go for a longer break, plus, Quins believed that not that many would travel at all.

Someone somewhere isn’t telling us the full story, meanwhile Sky, unsurprisingly, aren’t telling anyone anything, and I don’t expect them to either.

Quote: amlomax1991 "I have emailed them when i lost money for the Hull KR game and I emailed the bootsnall address and got told"I’m afraid those are the terms of the contract, and that is stated on the fixture lists. This is the price of both teams having successful seasons. "

and after saying that a bit more notice would be good they said


Aaron, after giving the first 14 weeks of the season, we then work on a four week notice period until the final few weeks.

This is an accurate reflection of what happens in most sports, is far more than in some, and a great deal more than in the NRL.

Its a no win situation. Without this we cannot follow form, and quite rightly we get complaints from fans ( including Quins ) that we don’t see enough of them in the early season when they are playing well. Castleford being a classic case this season.

We are coming to Quins for the Leeds game on the 20th by the way. Please get in touch with me and come over to meet Eddie and Stevo.

Neville Smith

Executive Producer

'"

Well, amlomax1991 has been invited to meet the Sky people including the Executive Producer for RL (who has been in that position since the start of SL, I believe).

Maybe they'd be amenable to meeting a small delegation?
