| Noticed Huddersfield have changed their home fixtures to Friday nights means we're one of only a few clubs playing Sunday afternoon. I prefer Fri night matches and it good for the corporates + we won't suffer from the short sun -thurs/fri turn around. Shouldn't affect away support because apart from Wigan, Lancashire clubs don't travel in big numbers anymore.

| Eh? Warrington and Saints bring just as many as Wigan. Salford and Widnes don't.
I think Sunday or Saturday evenings are best.

I think we like Sundays plus, it saves on the electricity bill, on of the reasons for moving to 3.0 pm ko instead of 3.30.
Friday night would certainly increase the cost of floodlights and generally we seem to sell out the corporate side anyway ?

Agree and I don't know too many that don't tbh.

We like Sunday matches but most of SL now prefer Fri nights so they must be something in it, making most of the corporates and a longer turn around seem to sway the decision for most of SL.

Just reading the Hudds board they're also selling their season tickets for £119 atm. From what someone said it seems Davy got fed up of Sky changing games from Saturday to Friday so they've just made them Friday to avoid getting messed around.

| You're not gonna please everyone whatever you do but if they were all Fridays I'd be stumped as I DJ every Friday night in Wakefield so wouldn't be able to get to any home games. Sunday afternoon in the Belle Vue sunshine is a tradition associated with 3 generations of my family and long may it continue.

| Should definitely aim to play as many as possible on a Sunday afternoon. The Friday night games aren't exactly ideal for families and attracting the younger supporters.
Also, we may attract the odd fan from the other SL clubs who have played. I know I've gone to watch other clubs on a Sunday when I've got nothing else on.

| I think sunday afternoons were perfect for a winter season when there was very little else to do on a sunday afternoon, but during summer months it is nice to take the kids away for the day/weekend and sunday afternoon games leave you with an either or decision whereas a friday night game may allow both.
Probably friday nights best for me

As much as people prefer having games on a Sunday afternoon, you only have to look at the teams who play all their games on a Friday to see that it's obviously better for most clubs financially to play on a Friday. Having more people in corporate hospitality brings in vastly more money than all the groups of supporter you listed combined. If we ever do get round to getting a stadium upgrade then we'd probably be better off switching to Friday's once we've got some decent hospitality.

| I'd be happier with a Friday night as it fits in better with my family life now, however, in years to come, when my little lad wants to come to games then Sunday Afternoon is loads better
You'll never please everyone, but looking at the club's who play almost exclusively on Thurs/Fri night and they're all towards the top of the league, they wouldn't play on a Friday if it wasn't worth it financially to them
