There is less chance of us getting a summer game where we can plan ahead as there are 4 less rounds before the league splits. Don't know exact cut off point but I guess being able to plan for a late July, August, early Sept game has gone.

Of course if we both finish in the top 8 (which I think we both will) then there is a good chance we may get an additional away fixture in the height of summer but with very little time to plan. This would be similat to our "frozen" fixture or the CC QF when we took around 300 fans per game.

Feeling we are due for an early season game but hoping late May onwards.

Good, I think it suits us to have a running start. Too many times we've limped into the season.

Too right. Training starts Friday week. Let's have it.

Did a team from the championship not get promoted this year? Mid July normal round of games finished?! Where is Leigh!?

Someone obviously doesn't understand the new structure.

I would take a look at this website, especially the video at the bottom.
