Been along there a fair bit recently and I've yet to see one person working along that stretch.

| 10 points to Tarquin for possibly the most tenuous link for poor performance.
A FRIDAY NIGHT!
Brilliant.

| I like the firday nights but i think the club could have made it fairer to those who cannot for whatever reason make friday nights.
Also it must have some effect on away support, the likes of Wigan/Saints/Warrington etc its a fair old haul for them to make 8pm at times.
May have been beneficial to play the Yorkshire teams on Fridays and the lancashire etc on a sat/sun

What has ruined our last 2 seasons has been, in the main, having no decent half backs playing for us. I'd take a ed up half back who knew what he was doing in that position over the sober ones who have been either injured or just shiite.

| Good news for me. Sorry for those who it doesn't suit though. The predicted drop in attendances doesn't seem to have happened either.

TBF only one or two posters predicted any significant drop in attendances. Although it might be interesting to see what the impact on attendance by away fans has been.

probably only brought 500-600 all together added up in the last 3 seasons, including sundays so i wouldn't take them into account

Its disappointing but as has been said not entirely suprising. I will though be at the reserve matches as per usual so I will get my fix.'"
I genuinely feel for you. Let's just hope they play well enough next year to appear on more of Sky's saturday fixtures so you can get to some more home games.

Didn't they send out a message out via the grapevine about the poll? Also if you have access to the grapevine, you more than likely have access to the net.

that is very hard to work out. I'd imagine away trips would be a 'luxury' people would cut back on in a recession. Also there have been barely any 'vital' games at the KC for fans to come over for. Bradford needed a win in the last game, so brought a better crowd than 2008.
But apart from that game I can't think of a game I'd have been in a hurry to see if I was a fan of another team. Whereas in other years we've been involved in clashes that decided playoff places etc

Not disputing that may have gone on, probably still will with the odd one or 2..
However my point was Sunday 10.30pm to Wed 5am could be a p*ss up, my 22 & 18 years and friends do not even go out drinking whilst gone 10.00pm

Fridays suit me, but when was this survey carried out?

| It would have been preferable to have the occasional Sunday game but I'm quite happy with Fridays.
As far as away support is concerned, I really don't see it as a major issue.
Rovers would be a lunch time kick off anyway and games against Leeds and Wigan have almost always been Friday night games since the move to the KC. Away support for Celtic, Harlequins and Catalans is an irrelevance and if Friday nights mean the likes of Salford and Huddersfield bring 250 rather than 400 on a Sunday, who cares?

| Hull daily mails poll results so far
Results for: Hull FC are to continue with Friday night games at the request of the fans, coaching staff and players. Tell us your preferred match day
31%: Friday night
69%: Sunday afternoon

Never, ever give any creedance to Hull Daily Mail polls. They are about as accurate as the ones on here.

I tend to agree, I would like a few sunday afternoon matches and even a couple at 6 on a saturday. Cannot say I am overly bothered really though.

TBF, that has never stopped us tramping over the Pennines on a Friday night for the last few years.
