Why schedule the HKR away game on good friday at a 12000 capacity ground?
Played at KCOM this probably would have been a 20000 plus gate

i believe we alternate the good Friday fixture between venues which is fair enough.

disappointed with our club on this! first 4 games could be a right off for me if refused holidays....dont recall the club saying that sundays would become part of our home fixture in the pass release brochure, saturdays' yes as we already do those! living on my own, £280 is a lot to pay out in one go for a low income worker which now could possibly become money wasted!

3 Sunday games at home this season, 2 last year although one was rearranged at the last minute by Sky.

I much prefer Friday night games but I can see the logic in playing on a Sunday in winter. Plus the Sunday home game after the Toronto trip makes sense.

I agree that sometimes you can catch the big clubs cold so as you say maybe as well to have those games early. Rovers will be a very tough game though Lawler has said they will challenge in 2020 so will be targeting a win against a side finishing 6th last year for sure.

It has always alternated. Besides, marketed right and the 2nd game of the season could easily be a sell out

He said we'd finish 9th.

To be fair most pundits said 9th or 8th, so we over delivered in that respect.

Agree that they have kept this decision low key, but at the same time theres no clear winner in the Friday or Sunday debate but its worth a try playing Winter games on an afternoon when its a few degrees warmer.

Seems Elstone is having an effect on Super League, its much more sensible fixture list, with high profile games to get the attention at the start, one Easter game to get rid of dreary Easter Monday games, and fixtures on the last day at the same time. Magic back at the fans choice of ground etc heading in a better direction at last I think.

I'm sure they will be targeting a win. But they are going to be a lot of people's favourites to be relegated, and have one of the weakest squads in SL. This fixture also gave us our most comfortable win of this year. If it doesn't qualify as one of the easiest fixtures of the season on paper then I aren't sure what does. That doesn't mean it will be easy in reality of course.

But then you already know all that. Mentioning Lawler's comment just shows that you are looking for a bite.

If Toronto is looking to be too expensive, just had a quick look at some Catalan pricing, and found a trip to Lloret, from the Thursday to Monday, at a 4* hotel including flights for £460 for 2 adults. https://www.loveholidays.com/holidays/a ... =HL&page=1 Booked It, Packed It.........
