Cant be played here due to the pitch being relaid in July

Good job the first game is in June then
We've got three home games in July. Where are we playing them? Craven Park?!

also noticed the opposistion against the knights is ireland not france! catalan away that weekend anyone!

3 weeks between the 1st and 2nd FC games

The RFL apparently decided against using the KC for fans' logistical reasons, nothing to do with the KC pitch being relaid. They felt a midweek match would be better off played at the Galpharm which is more central.

I think the Dull Daily Wail have put a more positive local slant on the story tbh.

Why carn't the exiles fixtures be swapped around and we have the June fixture .

IT IS A SHAME HULL HAVE NOT GOT AN EXILES GAME, ALTHOUGH I WILL PROBABLY SCUTTLE OVER TO HUDDERSFIELD FOR THE MATCH

Saints already have made the arrangements for that date, doubt they will change.

The last fixture at the KC before the "maintenance" is on the 1st . The Exiles game is scheduled for the 4th ?. Seems pretty poor decision by the smc imo.

IF the above is true regarding logistical reasons then it is another slap in the face for rugby league fans in hull from the RFL to go along with the snub we've received from the world cup venues

Houghton's in the Knight's squad and I wouldn't fancy playing Catalans without him. He's been great so far this season.

While I would have loved to have seen a game at the KC, I can understand this decision.

Fans from West Yorkshire/Lancashire aren't going to trek across to Hull mid-week for a friendly that is live on SKY, and also the pitch is looking in a bad state and i'd rather we get it sorted out so it is nice for any potential playoff fixtures.

The way I read it, SMC organised the re-seeding AFTER finding out we weren't getting the game.

but its ok to expect hull n rovers fans to trek across to west yorkshire/lancashire, again!

im sure the public of hull would have come out midweek and create a healthy crowd!
