NickWeaver Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Kick off has been moved forward to 1:30pm and all tickets will be half off as a Fan Appreciation game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dixiedean Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Any idea why? Does this mean it will be on SKY in their 6:30 slot?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loup Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Wolfpack game at 1:30 p.m. means that fans can then head down to BMO Field for the TFC game v Chicago Fire, kick off at 7 p.m. For visiting fans, this is a short stagger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to both games, but preferred the original 4:30 kick off, that meant there was only 30 mins between the two games. Now I have to kill 3.5 hours. I'm not sure that is why the game was moved.

Krzzystuff Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Definitely not why the game was moved. Could be as dixiedean mentioned and they will be showing it on SKY? I can't really think of any other reason for moving the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dixiedean Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I suspect, and you know how rumours spread... This is a test case for SL next year. SKY want this time slot. They already show all Catalans home games on Saturdays in the early evening. With this time they can have a live game every Saturday, without needing to move any English home game, which clubs don't like. They want Fridays or Sundays. Assuming TWP are promoted of course.

I doubt Sky will show one game especially seeing that TWP have already won the Shield and the rest of the regular season games are dead rubbers.

Could also just be an experiment to test the waters also it were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but why would PS simply let Sky broadcast a game they have the rights to? What’s in it for PS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadianRugger Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I'll probably go to this match, will be great to have a little Brunch Beer at 11 then head to the Stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzzystuff Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Its a game you know that the opposition will actually be trying to win so should be a fantastic hors d'oeuvre for the qualifiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see us resting players for the Batley and Rochdale games and then bringing the starters back for the Fev game so they are in game shape for the 8s.

I really do like your new shirt that the Batley folks had done for you! I know..isn't it great! My maternal gran was a Batley girl and I asked RogerT to get me one and he brought it to Katana on Friday so I promised them all I would wear it to the game. David Argyle was eyeing it but I pointed out they'd put my name on the back and then he gave up. Gavin Wilson from York City Knights brought me one too last year and so I just have to get one from Bradford Bulls (being Bradford born) and my wardrobe is complete. From here on though its Wolfpack shirts all the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's really cool with the shirts! I look forward to seeing all three once the collection is complete, though I still think the sponsor name on the Batley one could be a good inside joke name for you somehow!(that's the story I'm sticking with since I didn't catch the name lettering right away). Glad to hear you'll be back in proper uniform next week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
