| Quote ="JENKY"Its common sense for a sport that is losing clubs and is struggling for finance at all levels.
You put the best fixtures on the best days to optimise support, I agree clubs should be asking the question but equally how hard is it for someone at the RFL to step in and say to the fixture planners that we need all our derby fixtures on these bank holidays to maximise exposure and revenue.
The only logical reason I can offer for all these attractive fixtures not appearing on Bank Holiday dates is that SKY will be showing them on Thursday evenings at a later date (Leigh v Widnes, Fax v Fev , etc, etc so have told the RFL not to put these all in one day.'"
how long is it since we had regular local derbies at easter?.
how long have the CC leagues been on sky?.

| Quote ="Starbug"As I put earlier , do they [ RFL actually want Championship clubs to increase their attendances and their income streams ?
I seriously have my doubts , and I find myself questioning my sanity making such a seemingly ridiculous statement
But in all honesty it is the only conclusion I can reach , they do not want a Championship made up of clubs with support bases that can in any way challenge any club in the tier above
They want us to remain where we are and to struggle financially , they know that at the level we are at there will always be somebody willing to keep us ticking along , this allows them to bring through who they want in the future'"
You're just being paranoid Steve - why would a sport that allowed it's Chief Exec to tell bare-faced lies in a television interview do something so devious??

| Someone has posted on here that we have Barrow, on Good Friday. I believe we are actually Barrow's 'local derby'!
There are other problems surrounding the Easter fixtures. For example, with eleven teams, two are going to miss out on an Easter fixture. (one on Friday, one on Monday) If those teams happen to have an away game as their sole Easter fixture, there will be no revenue from Easter gates for them. Let's hope we aren't playing a team on Monday, who has had a blank date on the Friday! Also, with Toulouse in the mix, someone will cop for a bad Easter if they are travelling over there, and playing a second game as well - as we found out last year!
As for the Widnes game, we were due to play there on a couple of consecutive Good Fridays, in recent seasons, but had to move to Thursday, for Sky.
All that said, I still think we could have requested/been given an Easter game with Widnes!

Still annoys me when I think of what was said at the end of that interview
A disgraceful showing by the man who is the head person in our game.

| First six Championship fixtures are:-
Featherstone (H)
Barrow (A)
Widnes (H)
Halifax (A)
Barrow (H)
Featherstone (A)
Methinks we may not have a start like last season!! ( 8 wins & 1 draw from first 9)

| Just about sums up the RFL attitude to the Championships, big song and dance about the SL fixtures with the RFL site carrying the fixtures on the day they come out. Championship fixtures on the day they come out? Not a chance, nothing on the RFL website. Yes they are in the rugby press this morning, not even sure how reliable they are as one of them has us playing us in the first NRC game???
RFL continue to show their disregard and how low we are viewed.

probably not but at least we beat everyone of those teams at some point of last season comfortably with the exception of Barra. Pay back hopefully
