Our game v Leigh next wed has been cancelled thanks to Sky. We are now playing Batley on Thur 20th. Thats ruined my first trip to your great new stadium....bloody hate Sky.

Thats a bit of a god send for us, get the right result on Saturday night then a full week before the make and break game against Gateshead

Well pull your fingers out and get em snotted - you're playing like a team of tarts at the moment.
Good job you have us to play to help your top 2 push

Well whilst I obviously share the sentiment it,ll mean we play them Wednesday before our last game of the season.

Sad thing is i want both Leigh and Batley to stay up but its looking like we will have to win those games to get top spot. So if you could just win your games with the exception of us you should be ok.

Chomping into Fax's play off resting time that is now!

why not play them bank holiday monday after the challenge cup final, the same day barrow play gateshead,

Genesis have a 3pm ko that day and maybe the rules are only 1 match per day on the pitch ?

An evening KO that day would seem a good idea.

Not a bad idea, although knowing players like the weekend trip as much as we do then they may all be 'hung over'.
Or maybe your lads are more disciplined than ours are alledgedly?

Sounds too much like common sense to me!

Like yon mon said, Leigh Genesis already have it booked.

Sunday anyone?

Yet again this fixture has been changed, and now we could end up playing both Whitehaven and Fax within 5 days,when we have had weeks without a home game.

The RFL are a joke and to say its not their fault but Skys is pathetic,how much do teams in our League make off Sky,very little, the Thursday televised games are more trouble than they are worth.

can we not just ask fax to call it a draw? 2 points will do me!

Perhaps thats been sorted already

And we'd have happily taken the Wednesday slot now that it's free, thank you very much Sky/RFL

If we beat Toulouse and Gateshead it won't matter as we'll be safe so let's look on the bright side as we've got a full week to prepare for the Gateshead match now.

Come on Matt,

SKY/RFL aren't interested in Championship RL fans, never mind Genesis supporters!

So now you know what I was alluding to, in another thread, when I said we were about to get some help, over the Gateshead fixture - i.e. a few more days to prepare for it.

Curiously, the RFL are showing Halifax playing at ours on the Wednesday, and at Batley on the Thursday. Can't expect them to get it right, eh?

Very annoying though as we now start the season with 2 away games in 3 days - switching the Curzon Ashton game meant that we play on their 'midweek' night of Monday's.

SKY suggested this (Batley v Halifax) and I suspect the RFL didn't realise about the Wednesday game - a tad amazing when they decreed that's when we should play Halifax. Don't anyone ever tell me that SKY don't run RL!

In addition to inconveniencing Genesis, there's the small matters of Centurions having rented the stadium, sold tickets for the game, sold meal packages, got sponsors, doctors, etc. etc. etc. And, of course, poor programme editors not knowing when the game was going to be played!

Not to mention a rather large hole in the LSV balance sheet now.

Only about what they spend on butties for the meetings they'll have that week

Well thats fine it gives us a full week before play Gateshead and win.
