Thursdays game

[DMS]

True Steve, but as yet there hasn't been any that has impacted on our sport. That's the risk assessment issue - i.e. is it likely?? Not it isn't. This natural disaster is a completely different event!

No we don't, but we have them nonetheless. All this is, is a problem that has been solved - and in our favour Steve!

I'll live with this one.

As Mr Loaf would say Robin. "You took the words right out of my mouth".

Oh, I don't dispute that the issue of playing Keighley this week instead of Toulouse is no great issue, personally, I'm just glad we didn't lose our Sky game because of it. I don't have anything against the French at all in general, I positively like France and the French, I'm just not convinced (to put it mildly) that putting overseas teams in is the right way forward. But I accept that this argument has possibly been done before.

[GAZ1983]

I agree with the switch in principle. The only concearn I have is crowed figures. I doubt the French would have brought many fans with them on either date, yet with the short notice and the fact this is a sky match on a thursday night, I believe Keighley will bring less than they would of done on the aranged Sunday. Hope we will be compensated!

ERRRRRRRRRRR NOOOOOOOOOO ....if so, by whom??? think they call it "tough titty" round these parts!...accept.move on...Fev by 42

Shall we just play keighley, beat them and stay top of the league?? Sounds like a plan to me.

By 'eck Rob you never dress your words up but you do make sense sometimes. Like you I'M OVVER MOON;

[Paul Gibbins]

any loss of keighley fans from Sunday to Thursday will be negligable, it's hardly like they'd bring more than 100-200 on any day and no matter how long they have as notice.

Lets just get the job done, beat them and beat them well then move on with our preperations for Windies away.

I for one am glad we'll have more time to prepare for a toulouse team which would have been a lot trickier to contend with, they are playing some good stuff at the minute

Worryingly, my dad has just heard on Ridings FM that the game is cancelled

While we know the truth and they have got it wrong, any floating support will believe what they hear and not turn up Thursday. I would of thought now that they are involved with the announcing they would of got their facts right and promoted the game correctly!

Also, who updates the new website as it says cancelled on there as well. It does say in the news section that Keighley have stepped in, but surely it would be better to also explain this in the 'next game' section as well

The Beeb have actually just mentioned the game on Look North and had the correct info.

That part of the site is updated and controlled by the RFL and the club have no way of changing it. Hopefully they will correct this soon.
