According to Blunderside this morning.

Bit of a pain, as I finish work at 5.30 on a Thursday compared to 2 on a Friday but never mind.

What time ffs

well thats just brilliant aint it, after getting babysitters sorted and making sure our lass is not working for the friday. I have now a major headache sorting new babysitters and tring to get our lass off shift.

Thought Hutchie said 2pm prompt

Few here not happy they have already got their shifts changed for the Friday..will be unable to attend on the Thursday...

Thee club don't care!!!

can see refunds a plenty coming

Cant see how you can blame the club, sure this is down to the RFL/SKY is it not?

I'll blame who I like rightly or wrongly!!

It's the done thing round here!

Its OK its a month away.



I thought this was a game Sky weren't bothered about anyway?

I'm on nights that week and so have had to put a holiday in anyway. Now I will have to change it to the Thursday, but will get 8 hours off for my holiday, instead of 5, so jobs a good 'un



Can understand why its a pain for a lot of shift workers tho.

Can I be the first to blame Richard Agar?

A top top coach would clearly have more influence over both the RFL and Sky Sports.



I can see this change been a pain for alot of people tbh. Not ideal at all.

he's a media whore!!

You think you've got it bad my flight from oz doesn't get in till Friday morning!!!

At least people on shift can pull sickys!!

I really hope humberside have got this wrong, nothing's mentioned on HDM or Hull or Rovers sites??

Just spoke to Hull FC who say nothing's been confirmed yet. Sounded like an air of inevitability from the wording of their answer though.

Nothing on Sky site either

Pah Thursday night, no away fans will travel, the game wont sell out. Rubbish

Look if it changes on this occassion its not either clubs faults although any statement from the RL will say that the clubs have been left to make the decision, but we all know that with dwindling gates across the League, clubs on the edge of bankrupcy and ridiculous and ill thought out expansionism to underpin, no one will be allowed to p*ss Sky off. They are now whether we like it or not the pipers and they call the tune. The pressure will be on Hull and Rovers to agree. The game could have been the Saturday one but on past experience with the clipper event on that day expected to attract 200,000 plus the police would probabaly object to that as well.

It just shows for me that the actual paying public are as far as the RL are concerned way down their list of priorities, and if we want our game to survive we have to get used to the idea that Sky call the tune.

This better be a vicious rumour. The club must have been aware of the possibility of this happening for a while now. I am certain it was not a call to the office at close of play last night.
Sky were not interested in this game and having sold 16000 tickets so far they should not be allowed to change it at this short notice. Ok its a month away but this is our big game of the season with unprecidented demand for tickets.

There should be certain games each year (mainly derbies) which once announced should be set in stone.

Out of town supporters are ignored again. Kids will miss out as its a school night and obviously shift workers etc don't matter. Yes the game relies heavily on Sky but with so many tickets already sold this can not be allowed to happen.

So much for having all home games on Friday to avoid this kind of thing happening.

Good to see the club thinking of us armchair fans for a change!!

A minor inconvenience for me but Sky call the shots these days, so be it.

If it is the case its a bloody good job Wakey was moved from the sun to the sat, not the best prep for out biggest game of the season.

We'll still do em tho

I always knew it was your cup final thanks for confirming it. Just another 2 points for us

You are forgetting KR fans are the biggest set of [itravellers[/i in the country.
