| Quote ="SRW1996"Bit strong don't you think? Not to mention OTT.
Nobody has officially made any comment other than Fevs CEO as far as I'm aware and certainly not Leigh Centurions or LSV.
Your making statements without knowing the facts, I will gladly enlighten you as a trusted former colleague on the communications team but not on a public forum.
I can put your mind at rest nobody is pulling anyones strings, people are working together on matters to make things work for all parties in a sensible business like manner.
We will make our official statements when the time is right and via the correct professional channels.
Im honestly am perplexed by this thread and the compete over reaction to a potential one off possible change of day from a Sunday to a Friday night which is still neither denied or confirmed officially by any of the parties concerned.
Suppose it shows how well we must be doing as a club if this is one of the major bones of contention
Catch up soon and don't be sending me death threats on twitter lol
Cheers
Andy'"
You're right, it was a bit strong and I apologise if it came across as a personal attack.
However I am concerned that the 'we can't play this game on this day because the LSV has an event' excuse is becoming a regular occurrence during CC and play off games. How on earth are we going to overcome this problem when we get into SL and have to play on different days? I can't imagine the RFL or other SL clubs pandering to the business whims of the LSV. I thought the strapline 'we are all in this together' included the LSV as well.

| Lets put this thread to bed our preferred day is Sunday, we are allegedly senior partner, play Sunday. If there is a function that gets in the way move it because it shouldn't have been booked in the first place.
You can close the thread now and open another when there is an announcement of an announcement.

Have to admit I assumed that was the case, you would have freedom to arrange it at a time to suit you as long as it was over the alloted weekend. No idea what objections we(fev) have put forward but the competition rules, unusually for RL, are pretty clear. Unless the tie is televised or involves a French team it will take place on the Sunday unless mutually agreed. If no date can be mutually agreed the rfl board will rule.

| I'm not having a go at Andy, I was just questioning the relationship between the LSV and the club. I was under the mistaken impression that this was a forum and such 'discussions' were allowed.
I'm not demanding answers to any of my questions and if Andy decides to respond (or not), that's his prerogative. The title of the thread is 'Looks like it's Friday night' and my queries are all relevant to the topic.
He's already said that announcements will be made when the deal is done and that's good enough for me but that doesn't mean I can't raise the issue of the relationship with the LSV or any other matter I choose to ask questions about.
When did this forum become part of the Leigh Centurions official social media portfolio?

yes Mish , indeed thats actually what i said too, and as for the last bit as Ive stated on numerous times previously, this is an UNOFFICAL forum and everyone is entitled to an opinion, as long as they post within the forum rules , personnel insults etc are not allowed .

| Hello.. Reality check needed
I thought all the club hype at the moment was the fact that we might actually get back into super league, which i believe is everyone's dream / objective.
So what are we going to do then, 17 web pages to discuss and debate EVERY time game is switched from Sunday to ...Thursday, Saturday or even back to Monday.
Come on get a Grip is it really such a big issue.....

| No it isn't. Whenever it is played there will be those who can't go for various reasons.

You have missed the point, it isn't about when we play it is about whether the LSV is the club fixture secretary. Prioritising an antiques fair rather than a Challenge Cup Game in a sports complex is total nonsense.

Do you know for a fact that the LSV have said we can not play it on Sunday at 3pm?
Have the club officially announced it can not be played at 3pm Sunday because functions have been booked by LSV?
How do we know the hold up is not because the club preferred it to be on a Friday night for no other reason than this was their choice?
Featherstone have kept their fans up to date in all fairness. Our club have not and as far as I am aware have not stated what the delay was officially and what their preference for this fixture would have been.
As I posted way back on this thread, I believe the club wanted it on Friday night no matter what.

I'd say the club have done exactly right and have waited to announce anything officially - even Fev haven't actually announced anything, and it has only been their CEO posting something on Twitter, which to me has been something akin to doing dirty laundry in public.

So then it's fair to say that LSV co are getting an awful lot of unfair and completely unwarranted bad press on here without anyone knowing the full facts? Wouldn't you say?

Yeah probably. All conjecture and speculation, but then this place would be very quiet if everyone didn't say owt until an official announcement.
