| Won't disagree on that but after going Sundays and preferring this personally for far too many years to admit I feel it could be time to trial Friday evenings and this at this moment in my life would be my preference. We have to try this though in late spring/early summer when hopefully it's not too cold.
It was bitter in more ways than one today

Behave!!!
So you think you will get the "casual" fan on a Friday, when a SL game like Wire v Pies is on the telly!??
Not a hope!

I think we have tried most permutations for Game times and Days , Friday nights , Saturdays at around 6.00pm playing Toulouse , and old Faithful Sunday afternoons , I don't think it made much difference to the Attendance figures though .Im sure Andy Mazey and the other BOM , will listen to any ideas to improve attendances .

| Didn't we have a vote a few years back and most people wanted Sunday afternoons. I don't mind when we play as long as we're told before people buy season tickets. I remember a couple of seasons back we were told we'd be playing Sundays then when the fixtures came out most games were Friday nights.

Matt we have had 2 Friday games this season at the LSV , against Sheff we had 1580 on and against Swinton we had 1170 on so it doesn't matter what day its played on , although the Sat evening game against Fev was our biggest gate this season .

Fev was 1pm on a Saturday but making that our regular time would be suicide! All figures need context.

You may have intimidated others from posting on here but your bully boy posts won't work with me. This is a message board for debating opinions not some mouth piece for your self proclaimed super fan status.

Charlie has NEVER intimidated anybody in his life , I don't do insults either , anybody who knows me , will tell you im NO Bully-boy either , never have been , never will be , it aint my style , there is only YOU who keeps harping on about this "Super Fan ", thing , as ive already said , there are far more committed Fans than me , im just Charlie Average , and im over 25 .

| The problem is Charlie that you can't leave a post unmolested if you disagree with the content. Instead of just debating the content you get on your soapbox and tell us how fantastic every aspect of the club is and deride anyone who doesn't share your views.

As I have said in the past , if I disagree with something , its my right to voice my opinion , im not saying my opinion is right or wrong , I will debate anything , ive never thrown any insults out have I ?Its not my style , I will stand up for myself though .
Im no Superfan and disagree about my thoughts on the Club , always being Fantastic , I happen to think the BOM are doing a good job , as is PR , and as others have stated on this Forum , we do need more Fans through the Turnstiles .

| Can't beat a Friday night game under the floodlights! Likewise Saturday evenings are great in the summer. Sundays are just a bit drab and I can't properly enjoy it because I know I have to go home and polish my shoes on the back step.

| If you compare our attendances over the past 5 years Vs Featherstone and Halifax (our 2 biggest matches now IMO) against Fridays and Sunday's I am sure it would make a resounding case for Sunday's IMO.
I am a big fan of playing Sunday's however Fridays have not proved to be the answer so if we are going to enter in to the unknown and our supporters feel that we need to change, then we must trial Saturday evenings.
I can see we need to embrace families as our future so lets go for it then.

| As long as in the whole we play on the same day each week I don't really mind it's when we play different days each week with my shifts it sometimes means I cannot go for weeks on end as in the last few weeks, see with my shifts the day I work this week I will be off that day next week, so if we say play every Friday for instance I will be able to go every other week, hope that all makes sense.
