| Fridays all the way for me! I work alternate weekends which is a real pain for getting to Sunday games. Very happy with the decision.

| Great decision for mine. Sundays are terrible because you cannot plan anything other than rugby. Fridays have atmosphere and it's no good bleating on about away fans. There were only fkin 50 from Salford on Sunday. Hardly worth opening a turnstile for and most of the clubs in SL would be severely hit in the pocket if us and Rovers travelled in that sort of number to every away game.
I might have a problem for a couple of games as I usually fly back into the UK on a Friday night, but I can probably change the time. Now I [idefinately[/i will be renewing my passes for me and my sons.

| it's only the start of the season, not guaranteed all season long, will cost support, Friday is a poor day for a game if you've moved out of Hull or have a young family, a mix will always be the best option.

| The move to Friday's is probably best for the club but isn't best for me.
What I do find annoying is that a survey was ran at the 9's event. Why? Surely a home match would have given a much better representation. The club wanted Friday's and so have moved the games back there, why not just say that.

| I've particularly enjoyed sunning myself on those balmy Sunday afternoons. I'll miss the glorious weather.

agree, just be honest, "Friday maximises our corporate income and will facilitate the signing of the calibre of players Hull FC desire and the fans deserve"

| ON Balance I guess this was pretty predictable and the right decision I was looking forward to Sundays because of the tradition and the fact that we would get loads more travelling supporters but alas the latter hasn't been the case in fact visiting support has gone backwards in my opinion and forwhatever reason so has the home following.
Its a pity that unlike football (who have a designated game day of Saturday unless a game is televised or there are extenuating circumstances) the RL allowed Clubs to have a free for all as to when they play in the first place because then whenever you change you disenfranchise some of the fan base. If its an accepted day like in football then I guess everyone accepts it and gets on with it, people arrange their lives around it which you can't do if its constantly changing. I have great symnpathy for those who travel long distances to watch the FC and understand their plight, Sundays for them was obviously ideal, but I guess also its just a sign of Pearson looking to get the maximum bang for his buck!

but why ask at a 9's event, the kind of event where nobody who travels a long distance is likely to be represented, why not ask at multiple home games.
It's a bit like standing in the shop, watching someone buy a medium away shirt and then asking them if they like the medium away shirt, you know the answer before you pose the question.
Where FCVoices consulted at all?

To be fair, he didn't wait until the survey finished last year before making the change to Sunday. perhaps Mr P acted in haste and is now repenting at leisure.

Not really. How would those that can't make it on a Sunday and want Fridays have voted?
The club are never going to please everyone, it's simply not possible. What I don't understand is why people have trouble believing the club when they say that they have been led to believe there is a preference either way. People only ever seem to see this issue from their own perspective, and think that anyone who doesn't share that view is wrong.
