As an attendee at Headingley last season I preferred the Saturday afternoon games. They feel like the real deal instead of a fixture shunted to an evening kick off because we’re a second rate sport. As Arthur Clues said above, it’s so much better for away fans and makes for a better atmosphere. Evening games can also be tricky for young kids, especially the away fans. I jacked on away games a couple of years back due to having to finish work early and the awful trawl across Leeds and down the M62. Saturday games also give you the chance to socialise before, after or both if you wish. Conversely, as I’ll be watching all the games on Sky next season, the evening games will be great for me. Out for a curry and a few beers at tea time and then back around the corner and put my feet up for the match.
