Totally agree.
Never should be Thursday.

We won't have fancied the Sunday giving us a 4 day turnaround to Huddersfield on the Thursday. Friday would've been our choice, I'm sure. That the PL have a 24hr rule regarding ground use before soccer matches is a myth, therefore it will be Allam, in his capacity as owner of the SMC that makes the decision as to how long is necessary to prepare a pitch for a PL match, and he that has vetoed Friday night.
On the plus side, Thursday gives us 6 days following our match this Friday against Salford but only give Wire 4 days after [itheir[/i trip to Hudds this Sunday. Far from ideal for the fans, though, and yes, the solution which favours only City out of the 3 interested clubs. Is it any real disadvantage to them us playing the night before, anyway, or is it all in Allam's fevered imagination?

I think your real advantage comes in the Huddersfield league game on Thursday 10th April, as you will have had a week's rest compared to Hudds 4 day turnaround. This will leave them at a huge disadvantage, in the same way as it was when we played them at home last June.

Yep, all we'll need to do is pray it doesn't rain, and then pray we can hold onto the ball when we pass it. Easy.

| Wel I'm pretty happy with the Thursday night. We need as much recovery time before the Huddersfield time as is practical.
The prices are reasonable too.

Only free would be reasonable after the Widnes game and if we lose on Friday then it'll need to be free to get anyone there. 2 wins from 7 and a must win game in the cup with hardly anyone in will be a pretty dire position.
And without Ellis if we're really unlucky.
