Quote ="littlerich"I guess there is also an element that is unquantifiable. Say if Widnes appear on TV eight times this year and end up winning the GF. A potential sponsor may be pleased with that kind of success and exposure and may decide to sponsor in 2010.
As for the pure financial gain/loss - i wouldn't think there's a significant impact either way. Also, IIRC last year Halifax officials openly complained at the lack of TV exposure so there must be something positive in it.'"
That would just be down to wanting to be seen as equal to other clubs in importance , I seem to remember a lot of your fans being quite happy to stick to sunday matches
I would say that Leigh probably lost out on at least £ 10,000 in revenue when we played Widnes the other week because of the thursday game , that is a lot of money for any club at this level at the moment
I'm not saying if it is good or bad either way , just asking the question
