We've got a clash - Sunday 26th February, Leigh v Hunslet at 3pm & Liverpool v Swansea in the Carling Cup Final at Wembley at 4pm.

I'm bringing this up for selfish reasons as I want to watch both - but I think it would be sensible to try and rearrange this fixture against a less glamourous opponent. I think a lot of fans could choose to spend their time in the pub watching the football rather than turn up at Leigh in the circumstances. That wouldn't be good for the club.

Bringing the game forward to 1330 would probably be enough to see most people able to watch both.

Liverpool v Cardiff

The football is irelevent to me but yeah bring it forward.

Not interested in Bin Dippers or Sheep Sh@ggers and wouldn't have thought any self-respecting Leyther would admit to being either. Keep it as is!!!

who cares Liverpool by 4 at least cant see it effecting our crowd very much

A Liverpool v Cardiff football match. That will surely pack the pubs and clubs of Leigh out...........

Move it for one football team and we'll have to do the same for the rest.

Let's be honest, far more Leigh supporters would have attended the Bolton-Middlesbrough Carling Cup Final in 2004 but that didn't change the kick off time for the Leigh-Hull game in the Challenge Cup.

Are there even [ithat[/i many Leigh supporters who support their local team in rugby yet support the Scousers in football? Not that they could be accused of being gloryhunters...!

Ahem.

Don't think that they'll change it. It will knock about 10 off the gate.

Would the previous Friday evening clash with anything?

I'm working in Stockport 'til half 2, my workmates normally cover me so I can leave 10 mins early on a Sunday too so I can make kick off.

I've committed to buying a season ticket and swapped round shifts all round it so it pays off for me. So if the club start swapping kick off times to accommodate the Milk Cup Final ill not be happy at all.

I'd rather watch a better sport, in my home town, played by players earning a living with the majority doing it for their home town and families, than an American money making corporations racist players jumping round on the floor crying like girls for £150000 per week.

If people want to watch the Rumbelows Cup Final, buy a ticket and go, but armour up, because when Liverpool PLC beat Cardiff PLC, their freindly fans won't be happy. They rarely are.

Well me personally would want it kept as it is, as Matt said if we move kick off for one game of football then it would open a can of worms and fans of other football clubs would be wanting the kick off times changed.

Surely the Carling cup final should be re-arranged. I am going to drop the Football League an e-mail, they have obviously forgotten to check. I am sure they will put it back to an evening kick off when they realise that they are clashing with Leigh.

Who cares about wendyball???

Millions of people. Probably billions worldwide. I can't name them all...

If there's a clash, I'll be at Leigh and the football will be TiVo'd and I'll watch when I get home. But I will be disappointed at not seeing the final live. Just wondering how many Leigh fans will make the opposite decision.

Thankfully we don't have a match that clashes with the Superbowl next Sunday, so I'll be able to watch my fav team win the Superbowl! Come on NYG!

if the weather is anything like it is today then it wont just be liverpool fans sat at home watching the football,it'll be anyone without a season ticket

Has it been snowing in Leigh because we had a right downfall here. Nearly gone now though.

Sleet and rain all day

our game clashed with man utd v nal last week but i was at the lsv but got to see most of the second half but i recorded it anyway

Maybe thats why there was less than 1300 on

Any showers will clear up well before tonight's kick off.

In fairness I think it may have done John, although I think people are more likely not to be swayed by the football when it's a league game rather than a friendly (and more so when there are x amount more Pub United fans in Leigh than there are Liverpool).

Been a long shower frank!

I'd only move KO times that clash with any major England football Internationals (World Cup, European Championships etc) and as they are usually known way in advance it shouldn't effect the people who bought ST's as the club should have already planned for it.

As a lifelong Liverpool AND Leigh fan I will be watching the team playing in a Cup Final. If that was Leigh it would be them. But as it isn't I'll be watching Liverpool.
