At least the kids a off school. Is an 8pm kickoff?

Unbelievably bad move, I cant believe how much the game is being messed around by the powers that be. I guess the sky money really counts.

Next thing we will be playing at 2am in the morning in Abu Dhabi!

Could be worse. Abu Dhabi sounds better than NCP any day.

It's not exactly the end of the world is it for our two clubs. Probably a good move anyway, none of you lot have to be up for work on the Tuesday

Not happy about this - Fridays were OK as most people don't work Saturday's but after a Monday at work, having to get across then back for Tuesday is not a good thing for me or Mrs28. I hope it's well worth it financially for the club.

Thinking about it, it could be a good move not much else happening on a monday night during the footy off season and some people like to go out on weekends. I believe the viewing figures will be much better than the Saturday night figures as it won't be trying to compete with prime time TV.

It's crap for those of us who live outside of Hull and have to travel! We should be told about the possbility of Monday night games before we buy passes!

Wonderful news I was at work on Friday but not a Monday, means I can go.

Least we have had plenty of notice.

All games are supject to sky televising them and since sky have shown games on pretty much every day of the week over the years it's hardly a suprise.

Didn't last seasons home derby take place on a thursday?

Minus 1 pay on the gate here. Sigh

Doesnt both me tbh

Not even the hint of a moan Seb.

Sweet!

you would think you all lived about a 1000 miles away i dont remember hull city fans moaning about going to southampton on a tuesday night

Sheite idea. They wouldn't do it for wigan v saints

2012 Super League Monday Night Sky Games,

21st, Leeds v Saints
4th june, Bradford v Cas Tigers
11th, Giants v Dobbins
25th, Wigan v Widnes
2nd july, Widnes v Cas Tigers
9th, Wire v Catalans
23rd, HULL F.C v Dobbins
30th, Wakefield v Leeds
6th August, Saints v Wire



So we've only got one , its at home and people are whinging

It's a work night for me but no biggie.

I agree with Hutchie - it could've been a worse fixture change for us.

Gives us an extra days rest after the CC semi's too

I just think it spoils the experience. I love derby day, and thats what it is, a full day. Meet up with friends and have a few drinks in town or prinny ave then onto the game. Then maybe out again after it hopefully for a few celebratory drinks. Monday means get in from work, rush there then straight back home again for work the next day.

You can't please all of the people all of the time, as an adult with no kids I much prefer night games; I loved Friday nights.

Good to see that most games are localish so away fans dont have to travel too far
Also cuts down on drunken idiots at the games so less trouble
Good idea i think....just hope i'm not working away that week

Fooking great! Will have to rethink my flights back to Auz now!! The bleeding FC fixtures site has it down for the Friday! Monday frigging night, what a load of balls!

Doesn't help me or the family at all. Probably means I will simply watch on sky. Given how "poor" the Thursday derby was in 2010 I suspect this will be the same. Sky must be paying a lot to compensate for what I would say will be at least 6000 off the potential gate.
That said unlike in 10 we have plenty of notice and it's kids holidays so won't be so bad for families.
It does make me wonder if we moaned when we always had midweek games in years gone by when ko was 730 with a worse motorway system and slower cars etc.

Cheers Sky...Fly out on holiday Mon AM....Guess 1st job will be to find a boozer showing Sky Sports!!!! Hate the idea of monday night games with working shifts...Thats at least 5 games I won't see ..That's value for money!!! Don't see Wigan/Saints or Leeds/bradford being moved
