It will be on the Saturday and will be confirmed by Sky on Monday - just not sure which kick off we have - likely to be the 6.30pm kick off rather than the 4.30pm game.

It now means that it will clash with my duaghters birthday party. Humphhhh

Not happy with the fixture change, but you have to accept it, we could be playing for nothing at ths stage of the season. Booked the friday off when the fixtures came out. At least changing to Friday nights these changes are fewer now.

Hoping us and Huddersfield win next week which would set up a Hull derby!

Just noticed, if it is still the Friday, would clash with England's game against Bulgaria. Would probably impact on walk up support i'd expect.

I know its been asked a zillion times but can anyone point me in the direction of the playoff format, which position plays which and dates etc

Thanks

Thanks for that but do you know the format for the 2nd batch of games from 17th to 25th sept, which qualifier plays which, which loser plays which winner etc?

Not in round 1. If we win, we go to Wigan. If we lose and hudds win, we will play rovers - would be at our place if they don't beat wigan and Crusaders. If they win both and we lose to Leeds, we will go to the cesspit.

If we end up 5th, we play Crusaders (as it stands) at home.

Once again we are held to ransom by Sky. But I guess thats old news.Although 2 weeks notice is far to little especially as this was predicted weeks ago.

I would love to see the RFL get their act together next season and end the season with all games kicking off at the same time, be that Tuesday morning or Saturday evening. That way Sky can pick a game(s) and it not affect the clubs involved. It also means that clubs have to go for it without knowing what has happened elsewhere. If we are starting the season with a bang we should end it with a bang.

Completely agree. The final round matches should be played simultaneously to avoid any teams getting an advantage. Sky could quite easy broadcast two games at the same time either on different channels or by having one on the red button.

Spot on. There's still so much at stake from 2-9 yet teams playing later in the weekend have a clear advantage. Time for a level playing field in the final round.

Good points. No reason why it couldn't be done either, SKY do this every year with the Premier League so I'm it could be accommodated and the clubs would know the day and time of the final game at the start of the season. Would work well too.

Also, I usually work 9-5.30 on a sat, so I was really p[size=1issed[/size off when I heard about this possible change. But I think someone must like me, because for the first time in months, I've been given the 9.30 - 1.30 shift. I think I came a little when I read it on the noticeboard.

Yep

Warrington have to win by 7 points more than Saints to get 2nd,

Us and Leeds, obv winner takes 4th, loser will be 6th if Hudds win

And 8th place Cas win at Saints and its theres, if not Crusaders need to get a result v KR

reckon the games will be
saints v cas/cru v dobbins, the one not televised will most likely kick off at the same time
fc v leeds

I will be praying that we play on the 3rd,as i have tickets to see Muse in Manchester on the 4th.If sky change it to the saturday i will be really pished off and will have one hell of a headache on deciding what to do.

Get that headache started because looking at the final round fixtures there is no way we won't be one of the Sky games.

reckon St's v Cas will be one of the games as both have something to play for and its the last regular league fixture at Knowsley Road before it gets levelled. If thats the case, Sky crew will likely be up there making that the second game as no doubt Sintellins will want fireworks at the end of the game.

Just out of interest have St's actually started building there new ground yet?

Anyone heard yet?. Decision supposed to be today I thought

Site is being cleared. Thats why they are playing at Widnes next season.

saints v cas is at 6.45 so leeds v hull will kick-off earlier
