The whole stadium looks tired, will need a few million spending on it. Will the new owners have the appetite for it, I suppose that depends on the success of the football team over the next year or so.

Poorly thought out, cookie-cutter design.

30th July - Football v Preston
It's either been agreed by both parties that it's not an issue or the rugby will be moved to Thursday/Sunday. Presuming the Saints game would end up as Thursday TV game as listings don't go that far yet I don't think. Hull KR game moved to the Sunday 31st…

Yeah, great news for me, another game I can take my young lad too. Really can’t understand why we don’t have more weekend games.

I'd prefer Sunday afternoon as our "default" for home games. Probably not too great for corporate sales but Sunday afternoon may as you say entice more "family" ticket sales if we can expand the fan village concept.

I remember when our fixtures first come out being surprised we didn’t have more Sunday’s. It’s surely better to schedule our games for Sunday’s, knowing we’ll not have to move them and we can really plan how to get people through the gates. It looks a good day in the offing, with the fan village hosting the curtain raiser from midday.

I don't mind the odd Sunday games as a change. I took my youngest lad (9) to the HKR game a couple of weeks ago. It was only his second ever game yet my eldest lad (who is 11) comes to every game with me. I have to say though that I much prefer Friday nights, the whole weekend still ahead of you after the game, no work in the morning etc. The issue with Sunday afternoon games as a family is that you can't really do anything decent before the game nor after i.e going out for the day. My Saturdays during the football season are spent at both their football games so Sunday is the only full day to enjoy as a family.

Wasn't that Saints lowest attendance of the season, despite a decent following from HKR? I don't mind away games on a Saturday and Sunday to the likes of Hull, HKR, Cas, Wakey etc but Thursday and Friday nights there are a pain in the arris.
