Can't think of a worse decision

Many people work Saturdays these days. Can see a low turnout.

I thought I had read somewhere it was going to be the Friday. How annoying at work so won't be able to go!

Personally pleased, don't think it will effect the game too much and we should get more families and Cas fans coming, doesn't seem to effect football playing at this time.

Fair price also, £15-£18

Well, I'm happy with that decision. Looking forward to it more.

The "turnaround" crew will be counting the days

That's me out , Punk All dayer in Manchester that day .

is it on TV ?

No.

The TV matches are Wiggoon v Half wits Friday night Sky, then the SKy team can Wax lyrical over the Pies team and the Clarkey will be able to have a multiple orgasm over Sammy the Tonk coming back .....................

Then we will have the whole Sky team going on for two hours of all the them drooling over the prospect.



BBC are Having Leigh v Wakey and Leeds V Huddesfield

No suprises there

Seems sensible given the games either side of it

How come soccer clubs can pull in big gates on a Saturday then? The Tigers can pull in 20,000 without having problems with fans being at work.

Personally happy with the date of the game.

How many rugby games kick off at 3pm On a Saturday?

Maybe we have supporters who watch us for that reason As They don't work a Friday night or a Sunday

But why can soccer clubs play Saturdays and pull in big gates but for Hull FC to do so would cause problems?

Whatever date was announced for this - Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday some people would moan. As has been pointed out the Saturday is ideal to fit between the Sunday game at Warrington and Saints at home the following Friday.

Presumably you'd not be able to go to the Final as it's on a Saturday?

Do you not book holidays?

Always book Cup final week off.


As for saturday fixtures, if the club think they would work why havnt they moved to them? A lot of rugby fans tend to work around friday/sunday games, if it wasnt for a colleague being on holiday on the 16th i wouldnt have made the game, thankfully i will be needed to work an early.

Club decision to play Saturday due to fixtures but i bet they are expecting a hit in attendance

Saturday works for me so I'll be able to come up for this one, should be a really tight game (one would hope)

I think Sunday games are still appealing to quite a few fans but BITD league games were always played on a Saturday (hence the broken time payments and Sunday for Church), whatever day it is with our 24 hour a day, 7 day a week society there are aways going to be people put out or just not able to attend by games being played on different days of the week.

For me Friday games are all but impossible but I managed to get to the Thursday Leeds match, ATEOTD if you want to go, go, if you don't want to or can't then it shouldn't be fair game for those attending to call out those not attending for whatever their individual circumstances are or in the worst situation to be labelled not 'a true fan'

My stag do in newcastle that weekend so gonna miss it but hopefully get through to the 1/4 finals !!!! Coyh

Is it completely up to the home team to sort out which day the game is played or would we have had to negotiate it with Cas?

Pleased with this. Optimum spacing between fixtures and better for Cas fans than Friday night.

i did actually ask that question on another thread if we had the choice to choose!

Whatever happened to all the heroes?

Whose the lucky bloke?

I don't know about a [itrue fan[/i but your definitely a full on tosspot!

Old ,Fat , wrinkly .. It's more like cocoon the next generation .

good draw IMO, always like going to a Hull v Cas game
