| Another year of my young lad falling asleep half way through the games!
Mind you that might not have anything to do with it being late!  |

Ive had to take about 7 days holiday to watch them on friday nights which i dont mind doing. I think we have had 1 fixture change this season. At least with playing on friday nights Sky are messing about changing our home fixtures with not much notice.

| It seems to have worked well for you. Your crowds have held up despite results.
The comment about not been messed around by Sky is an important one we have had loads of games changed.
My concern is that effectively we will all be forced down that route and become a Night Time game.
In the long run i wonder if that will affect the demographic of th ecrowds. More blokes and less women and kids.  |

Guessing the only Sunday away games will be Warrington, Cas, Bradford, Wakefield, Hudds unless Saturday Sky games. London/Catalans/Celtic = Saturday, Rovers will be Good Friday, Leeds/Wigan/Saints/Salford on Friday nights.

Obviously everyone has their own circumstances that inform their opinion. As a mum of 2 (aged 12 and 7), Friday nights are great for us, even though we live in West Yorkshire. Usually leave here at 6pm which gives plenty of time. The "Friday night M62 traffic nightmare" is an urban myth IMO. Several times this season we've left at 6.30pm and still taken our seats in time for kick-off (admittedly just as the players are coming out) 
The kids don't come with us for every match, as it's not top of their list of favourite activities, and when they do, it's a late night, but they nod off in the car on the way home and we're back for 11.15pm usually with no school for 2 days. I think some are a bit over-dramatic about the impact of doing this probably 12 times a year, but I fully understand that some prefer Sundays for this reason. The best bit is that it completely frees up the weekend so we can do stuff as a family. Sunday matches don't work nearly as well for me as they seem to take up 2/3 of the day, so a big chunk of the weekend.

Rule a few months ago " not all our fans have access to the internet"
Rule in that article - " we decided to conduct an online survey"
Go on the spinmeister, mind you we should at least praise him for doing one this year
Poor old Jim Gardeners lugs will be steaming this morning

Unlike the "Friday night M1 traffic nightmare" which is a nailed on certainty.  |

And the Sheffield Parkway, M1, M18 nightmare, which is also pretty much guaranteed

Agreed on that one.
Wonder if they've assessed the impact on away attendances. They are generally rubbish anyway, but not sure how much difference it makes numberswise.
