That will really damage the crowd that will.

Yeah the crowd will be down from the usual 2.5 to 2 Million

This joke on Hull KR fans never gets old

Oh yes it does

think it will have a knock on effect on the crowd we take.......how many wiganers want to be in hull at 8.15 on a sunday night only to get back at 10.00 if their in the car or 11.00 on a coach?!

We'd take more on a fri night!

Surely they could have put it on the sat?! Why have sky gone back to sun night games again?

They haven't got a Friday game that week or else I think it would have been played Saturday. The Saturday game that weekend I guess will be Leeds v Bradford which will be moving from Friday.

What is happening on that Friday then?

Surely that doesnt make sense?!??! Why just not keep the Leeds Bratfut game on fri on sky and put the wigan game on sat?!?!

The answers in the first half of the quote.

Pathetic from sky. The second most watched thing on sky after prem soccer and they ditch us for some pathetic U21 Champions League Semi Finals and 20:20 cricket...what a joke......If the soccer doesnt even have an english team in it ill be even more pee'd off!!

It will the England team are very good and will make that stage of the competition, it will be actually worth watching, better than the normal England team. Best penalty shoot out I have ever seen last time I saw them on sky as well. I do agree though, apparently we get the second highest viewing figures on sky so I cannot believe they would change us to another day. They are one off competitions though.

England reached the semi finals of that last time but alas as always lost on penalties.
Two of those events have sky's hands tied. They can't dictate when they are shown hence the Sunday SL match.

Didn't we once play Quins when the Quarter Final of the World Cup was on? I remember they showed the result on the screen.

yeah we lost to portugal

What a day at Quins that was. During the great espcape it was - I thought we'd lost by two at full time when we'd actually won by two.

Damn beer!

I fell off the chairs and nearly broke my back at that game - looked like someone had booted me in the back

Our very own Wigan season ticket holder as possible Captain of England U21s

. . .

So no knocking the England U21s people!!!

Who?

I think it's about time a Rovers/Wigan game was shown on TV, bar last seasons game at CP, they've all been competitive imo.

Great news.

Just have to find a bar in Skala, Kefalonia that has Sky Sports.

Its OK for you Rogues, we after to put up with the the Golf Stand at Caravan park

Oh yeh, you and Ste wasn't it? That looked so painful!

I just noticed this on the fixture list after reading what has happened to Quins with there fixture, I thought I would see if Sky had messed around with any of ours and came across this one.

It has not cost us any money as we normally always go in the car and don't stay over for any of the nearer games, it is a bit of pain though as I start work on Mondays at 6am.

Ah well if we win it wont matter

Its a big pain being in hull no matter what time of the day (only joking hull people) but it will affect the home/away support with people planning this game for some time and with just over 3 weeks notice sky come along and pinch it surley in the tv deal we as clubs should tell the brocaster we need 5/6 weeks notice if your chaning the day/time of the kick off baring play offs.
