Think the new lights are incorporated within the new stand i believe!

said this das ago, then had to face a tirade from your lot claiming they werent going anywhere and Fev were lying when they said they picked them up Saturday

The photo clearly shows them starting to be taken down [utoday[/u yet Featherstone some how managed to pick them up last Saturday. Now I'm not the most intelligent person but I know that aint possible.

Wrong. 21st June is the longest day. 21st December is the shortest day.
Just to be pedantic

The obvious question is for Sunday games. If this Sunday, it rains heavily as forecast, and it gets dark, what will Rovers do? Normally floodlights go on to improve the viewing and player safety. Are they planning to have temporary lights in place for this??

Here's a question, don't know if it's true or not. I was told that if a game needs floodlights at any time during the game they have to be switched on before the game starts. So with the sunset on 23rd July being 9.20 then the floodlight must go on for the game. With the game kicking off at 8 it won't finish until around 9.45

We are using Skys own portable floodlights as we did in 2007.

What about none televised games?

From 21-22 June, no wonder I think its a long day lol

For a TV game, it is normal to have the lights on from before the Live Broadcast goes out; for a non-tv game they can be switched on at the request of the Ref, Match Commissioner or Ground Safety Officer at any stage.

In inclement weather, it is normal for lights to be on before the game starts.

A degree of common sense is applied when requesting them on as they are typically expensive to run and operate.

Is that an artist's impression of the stand during a game?

Ok. It must be a live game that was mentioned to me then. Cheers

Unless we are playing there

Yes, It's Rovers against Hull FC with 10 minutes to go.
The Hull FC fans have been allocated the new North stand.

Rovers are winning.

Obviously the picture and the comment are figments of someone's imagination.

Thats the pylon that is empty, shame you didnt take a pic of the bulbs

No, it's actually a scene from Rover's biggest ever attendance.



The Ref sent off 22 players in the first half, 13 from Hull and 9 from Rovers.



All the Hull fans are in the South Stand with their torches. Unfortunately, it made no difference as their rays of light couldn't reach the three miles to the pitch.



Hull won 56-4.

The talk is Niel is on BGT Sat night with his own rap "where me stand, wheres me lights"

Are you me?

I bet you say "cell" too unless there's more than one and only then do you say "battery".

I would say that sums you up perfectly judging by your childish comments above.

The thieving chav b'stards of east Hull will need a Trebuchet to get to the copper within those floodlights. The Normans would be proud.

I hope its a brighter day sunday for em, if it's dull again can they put the lights on?

To paraphrase Stevo,

'The lights will be on, but there'll be no one at home!'

If Craven Park is fit enough to host all the other super league teams between now and then, then it is fit enough to host the derby. Simple as that. Shame for the Hull fans that would've gone but that's life!
