Not to mention the age it took to announce the kick off times for Murrayfield Magic, then had the cheek to moan at the fans for not making a commitment to the event.
the france v england test date & city was comfirmed 5 months before the scheduled kick off....is the time of the kick off really going to matter?
we know when murryfield magic is,we know when the mid season test is,we know when the 4nations is....if you support your club/nation you'll be there reguardless of the kick off time...

see you in paris on the 13th june
Er... yes it is fairly important. Whether I'm there or not, I'd still like to see the game and know what time it's on and plan accordingly. Other people may also want to plan their trips for it rather than have to leave a full day bare just in case the rugby starts at a different time.
The media might mention it more if they know when it is!
People might sponsor it if they know it's on at a certain time.
We know when abouts these things are. But we don't know when. It's not too hard to ask for them to say "at x o'clock" is it? Just because it doesn't bother you doesn't mean it shouldn't bother others. It's slow and poor organisation.
don't get me wrong i;d love to know what time the game is kicking off...but it does'nt take a genius to figure out it'll be sometime betweem 6-8pm given that we have'nt had a sky televised international played at any other time other than between 6-8pm since when 1997 ?............

People don't even know if this is on Sky or not though. It's not been announced.
And we played Australia in the Ashes in 2001 on a Saturday afternoon IIRC.

True, think it was a Sunday afternoon but that was only after the tour was hastily rescheduled after Sept 11th, you know, when the likes of Jason Ryles didn't want to come as some of the major UK landmarks, such as the Eiffel Tower might be targetted.
It will be a toss-up between Paris and Bridgend for me.
