Quote ="the tache is back"no problem with this at all as much as i can't stand arrogant saints and their fans,the real problem is the fact that the top brass who run our game couldn,t organise a up in a brewery,to have such a gap between the quarters and the semis is ridiculous and then try to sort the final out properly in such a short time shows how inept they are.
start the challenge cup a month later,you could easily get all the league fixtures in,it's hardly bloody rocket science is it.'"
I fully agree with you.
Having spoken to the club about exactly this I have been told that we are totally in the hands of the B.B.C. as to when cup fixtures are played.
This is because we are considered a minority sport to be fitted in somewhere between shove ha'penny finals and tiddlywinks championships.
It's a similar situation to that we have to endure with Sky as regard to league fixtures being changed at the whim of sports producers.
Could you see the R.F.U. allowing this situation to arise. I don't think so.
The answer to this lies at the door of the R.F.L. and not each individual club.
