Quote ="Fax Machine"Does it not occur to you that you could also be considered "myopic and stubborn" for suggesting that the KO time should be moved to accomodate the football?
It may appear "no contest" to you as you obviously put football first before RL but it doesn't seem to occur to you that many committed RL supporters have no interest in football whatsoever.'"
Fax Machine.The problem IS that quite a large proportion of them do have an interest in England playing Germany in the World Cup finals.Its not that they all prefer football to rugby,that has nowt to do with it,its that lots of sports followers get patriotic.Sam and Bob both aren't coming for that reason and Sam couldnt care less about the footie UNLESS its the World Cup and against Germany.
Isn't it funny how the other matches in our division have both been switched to 1 O'Clock kick offs.People are allowed to like other sports.I know you like your Motorbike racing.I have no real interest in football,but I do in this particular match.Call me all you want,but the Leigh,Keighley,Featherstone and Widnes folk seem to have prevailed to whats called common sense.
A bit mad for Rugby League I know.
At the end of the day its each to their own and realistically and unfortunately if the game goes ahead at 3 I reckon the attendance will be at least halved.
