Friday Rugby

The Fixture lists for the new RL season where released today. Nothing unusual in that, but there is a bee in many a Hull FC fans bonnet because of the announcement that all our home games will be played on a Friday night.
The thing is passes have been on sale for about 3 weeks and 3000 have been sold. But they have only told people about this today. Now because some people who have purchased passes did so on the basis of Sunday afternoon games, the club have had to offer refunds. Whatever day we play games some people are going to be at a disadvantage. But the way the club has announced this is a bit shabby to say the least. Apparently the reason they gave is that because of all the consultations they took about the decision, it took them until now to decide. Thing is, they've been taking opinions for about 2 years!
I suppose we'll soon find out how the move will effect crowds.
