Thats me booking Thursday 16th off work for the game...Boss will be happy - NOT.

They'll be at least a thousand there!!

Are you sure? Well that will be a 50% better payment than last time you lot counted

On the way across to Halifax I said to our Dave 'just watch we will be drawn at Fev away' wish i'd kept my bl**dy gob shut



Word going around The Shay by the Journos was that Powell is going to Cas and it will be announced very soon - it apparently should have been announced yesterday but someone asked for it not to be as it was the NRC draw and they didn't want any other story to overshadow that. Our Dave didn't ask that question when he interviewed him for LCTV.

Thought so, cheers mate.

Is this game on the Sunday or is Premier sports showing any NRC cup games thus meaning it ends up on a Thursday ?
Can't find anything that says when its played on the net except that Fev have it at 15:00hrs on Sunday 19th May.

All I know is that we should demand tickets to sell to save being shafted again, also put counters on each turnstyle - volunteers?

Just been verified on twitter that it is to be thurs 16th may. Dont u just love trips to fev on a thurs.

I couldn't make the Sunday, so suits me.

Nowt listed on either website yet, mind, and the RFL website still lists it as the Sunday.

Can't help but be amused at this. Fev refuse to come to us on a Friday night, yet we are 'invited' bt the RFL/Premier to play four of our last five games at Fev on Thursdays!

Well i am pleased fev refused to play us on a friday, its a rubbish night. Also i would of thought this game is a bit different as itsd part of the prem sport contract with the rfl

Another tweet, leigh have now said they have not been officially told of the fev nrc game date.

On premier sports listings says no match yet confirmed.

I'm hearing Dewsbury is the telly game!

Been told the same, with the Leigh game taking place on the Sunday.

Wish they would hurry and decide then I can arrange the Lisa Coaches

It's ridiculous the time the TV companies take to make up their minds

All depends on your point of view.......the best part of 1500 Leythers turned out on a Friday night for an away game the other week.......and there'd have been three times that and more if we'd have played it at home!!

Friday night is only [i'a rubbish night'[/i if it does not suit you!! There are plenty of shift workers for whom 3pm on a Sunday afternoon is rubbish!!

I agree walt , that is why no time will suit everybody.

They gave Fax tickets to the long stand and it created a much better atmosphere, I hope we go into the same stand to lift the players instead of the open terrace that has no atmosphere to it.

10 days (or less) before Kick off and no-one knows when its played.
Have the RFL got control of the sport or do they just bumble along unaware that people need to plan time around games so they can get to them.

I need to book the coach and if its a Thursday its only 9 days off

Surely you know the answer to that? SKY dictate who plays who, and when, in SL, and Premier Sports do likewise in the Championship.

Trust what Joanne and Matt have said...

Absolutely!!
