Quite right and they would have been fully entitled to complain. When the idiots set this date it was 100% certain that a side on short turn around from Wembley would be involved.

Can't believe neither club complained/protested or asked for the fixture to be moved to the Saturday at least

| The challenge cup means nothing to Sky so they won't be of a mind to help anyone.

Why would it have helped us or Leeds in the CC to move the game?

I'm referring to the match after the cup final. They could have moved that back to give us or Leeds an extra day or two.

Again, how would that help Sky? They are a business and pay for the privilege, he who pays the piper. Should make no difference, we've proven we have the depth in the squad. Leeds could complain they've not had a game for 12 days when they play us...?

I'm not talking about helping Sky. The point that I and others are making is that either Hull or Leeds would be at a disadvantage playing on the Thursday straight after a high pressure cup final.

But neither side is, no point moaning about it anyway, what a wonderful season we're having if that's all there is to Moab about.

Not sure if you are just winding folk up or cannot see the wood from the trees.
Sky choose the games they want to show. Why would they want to showcase a game which has the potential to be a walk over as one team will have been giving their all in a cup final 5 days before whilst the other was guaranteed a significant amount of recovery and preparation time. Hardly the prospect of a great sporting spectacle.
If they really wanted to screen the Leeds v Hull game, they could easily have made it the Friday evening or even Saturday afternoon game.

I'm not winding anyone up, just don't see the point in moaning about something we can't change. If people feel so strongly don't go to the game and cancel the Sky subscription.

Whats the point of a DISCUSSION forum?
Do you ever bemoan the ref? You cannot change a decision either, but I can imagine you are the first to complain about a poor decision.
