The club prefers Friday over Sunday for corporate sales. It's hard to get corporate guests interested in Sunday matches.






First there was wisdom
Then there was knowledge
Now there is only information

A poll would be pointless as there wouldn't be an overwhelming preference either way, the club will never please everyone. Attendances have risen for each of the last two seasons so I'd leave things as they are.

After the sh ite that Agar had served up it's no wonder the fans stayed away the following season,
But here is a comparison, and you reckon even after a CC win and our best season in 30+ years Fridays aren't having a detrimental effect?
2017 first, 2012 second.
Catalans 13,554 (1st H game +£2.50 ticket giveaway, back of winning CC) v 10,765
Saints 11,587 v 11,727
Widnes 10,814 v 10,705
Salford 11,016 v 10,776
Leeds 15,487 (Easter Friday instead of the derby match) v 11,667 (Sat)
Cas 12,801 (high flying Cas) v 11,607
Warry 10,734 v 12,710 (1st H game of season)
Leigh 10,222 v 10,096 (London)
Wigan 10,333 v 11,549
Wakey 10,895 v 11,105
Hudds 11.467 v 11,142
Avg 11,719 v 11,259

Given the circumstances for the start of the 2012 season to where we were at the start of the 2017 season that is a fairly shocking set of attendance figures given we supposedly sold a record number of season tickets.

Dont believe that at all.Its all about marketing and the product.
Get the product right then the marketing becomes easier.
In any case i believe the extra away fans from most clubs coming over for Sunday games would easily pay for any loss of corporate revenue.
Lets get back to Sunday matches,ditch Thursday night sky matches when re negotiating TV rights and offer the BBC/ITV the chance to air a Sunday afternoon game nationally at 18.00 (not live) when there is nothing else on TV and people might tune in

If I was a business man, I would much rather extend my working day on a Friday to take in the game/do the corporate thing rather than use up a precious weekend day, especially if I wasn't an ardent fan.
Personally I much prefer a Friday night, even living in Cas, because it then frees up the rest of the weekend. As a runner, races tend to be Sundays so it's great knowing I can book onto them without rugby clashes. You also have families who can do things on a weekend because they got the rugby out of the way on Friday evening. Add to all that the lack of worrying about game changes for Sky and short turnarounds, I think Friday is here to stay whether we like it or not.

best way to raise attendences would be to dump sky and play every match on the same day.sky aren't interested in spectators who actually attend games.

And if we dump sky, what will all the fans be turning up to watch? There will be no players, as SKY pay the players wages effectively!

Yup, let’s go back to racist chants, flat caps, whippets, players working as brickies and plumbers, few women or kids at games, kicking off at 3:15 on a Sunday to suit the working man, hell, let’s move it all back to Winter, promote Keighly, Whitehaven and Halifax, not because they’re good enough, just for a bit of nostalgia.

yes the good old days,when we had a reserve league and part time players had more skill and flair in one finger than the current crop.
