Is this game now on Sky Sports, Thursday 29th July?

i hope not as we are on the Thursday before, there is nothing on the sky website,
and i also have a table booked in the Harvey's restaurant and my boy is the Mascot

Doesn't want to be changed, as I was going to take the wife seeing as how 1st Aug is our wedding anniversary.

They're the fixtures. I think Fev could win the title that game so they might go to them for that reason. Otherwise ours looks the 'strongest' fixture as it were.

Oh eck please say no, come on what about us fans and the clubs?
Fax need the money, put this game on a Thursday night and the crowd will be 30% lower, why should we have two games in two weeks moved to a Thursday night?
plus what about the club and all its sponsors and diners???
Its TOO SHORT NOTICE, Sky have the game by the wotsits and it annoys the hell out of me, they are like Lord and master, yer they pay some money to the Championship clubs but is it really worth it???

Surely Fev winning the title (league leaders trophy) will get the nod, please!

I'd be happy for it to be on Sky given that Widnes have Leigh at home the previous Sunday. Will make a change sky fixture change benefiting us !!

Agreed. Widnes are poor but if Sky want to give us a hand to kick their bootys then thats fine by me.

I'm away on hols, so the chance to watch the game on TV would be a real bonus for me - totally selfish, I know!!

Thu 29 July 7:30pm Halifax v Widnes Vikings LIVE Kick Off 7:33pm Sky Sports 4 confirmed.


Shame that as we would have took a fair few had it been on a sunday.

That has really Peed me off. Widnes would certainly have brought 500 - 800 on a sunday but now there will only be 2000 for a game that would have attracted 3000 on a Sunday.

I don't think so, it is the CO-OP that pay the home club, I believe around £3 for a TV game as compensation for the loss of gate. Laughable isn't it?

surely its more tnan three quid
