Do you think it would affect the attendance that much? Its only a group game anyway. Not like a Quarter Final v Italy or Germany.

It could be the difference between a sell-out and and around 21,000 IMO. Change it I say!

saturday teatime would be the obvious time - sliding it in between the 2 world cup games starting at 3 and 7.30 - the England game on friday cannot be taken on -

i suppose thursday nights a non runner ???- theyve done it before mind and not just Wigan v Saints- they moved a game in 2006 from friday to thursday to avoid the start of the world cup - Saints v Hull if i remember

They have a rail cup semi final scheduled for Thursday Night so not likely.

Lets do it for old times sake.

Sunday afternoon @ 3pm.

Would be nice. A big fuss over a wedding at Headingley forced Sky to move a home derby in 2002 to Sunday 3pm and aired on Sky Sports Extra (which then wasn't available on cable).
It was a great day, helped by glorious sunshine, a 48-8 Wigan win and a Julian O'Neill hatrick 2.1923828125:10
