| The home game against Hull FC has been moved to Fri night 17th May got tickets for the Theatre that night bloody sky. I know it states fixtures are subject to change but you purchase a season ticket before the season starts just frustrating. Must be the same for people that have to work no thought to spectators, may not bother with a season ticket next year. Never thought I would say that

| Sky make the offer to broadcast SL with the proviso that they can select games to broadcast (with a minimum amount of given notice for a fixture change).
This is then accepted by the clubs / SLE, so really I'd direct your ire at the club rather than Sky, as they chose to accept these terms (and the derogitory impact it has on their attending supporters).

| This will take a large chunk off the travelling support from Hull too.. Sunday Game between 2 and 3000...Friday night 1000 at the most IMO..

Is this really a contractual clause and if so how daft is it, apart from a switch to show a nail biting fixture that was going to decide top of the league/ final play off place or relagation if in place?
Why would a broadcaster not get a calander of agreed fixtures and promote their offering fully..."in May clash of the titans" blah de blah

| Sick of these Friday night games. I bought my grandson , who is 5, a season ticket. Tried him with one Friday night match and he fell asleep before the end. I feel cheated by the club. They make us buy the seated season tickets before the fixtures are out or you lose your seat and then hit us with a load of Friday night fixtures. How are we supposed to promote the game to young children when they can't make any of the games. Rant over.

| One persons loss is another's gain. I personally work on a Sunday and have Friday off at the moment so is ideal for me. It's stupid making teams travel over the Pennines, but sky bring in the money and run the show unfortunately.

I don't remember anyone from the club coming round to my house, asking me to get my wallet before forcing me into a car and taking me to the club shop and getting me to purchase a family season ticket. We all know Sky rule the game and they dictate what games & when they want to show hem. Yes it's frustrating but you can't blame the club. With our recent upturn in success & style of play we have become a very "Watchable" product

| Unfortunately, Sky call the tune. They pump the money into SL and without it we would probably be a semi professional game. But it's a pity there are not more companies bidding for SL coverage. We could get more money and perhaps stop this random movement of dates.

| At least we haven't sold out completely like Wigan, Leeds, saints etc who all play all their home games on a Friday night ! I quite like the variety to be honest but I understand the frustration for those with small children.

| Anything is better than no game at all and without sky's money I doubt we would be watching the likes of hodgson, briers, Morley and Westwood in a wire shirt.
Without the sky money the game would still be amateur at best but would still be better than RU ha ha
