SKY at it already!! : Fri Feb 18, 2011 5:45 pm  

Has anybody noticed that the game against Leeds has been moved thanks to Sky. OK, they have only pulled it forward by 1/2 hour (5.45 instead of 6.15) but I'm sure that means that some fans will be making a mad dash to make kick-off.

oh dear,

Up until the end of March all of the Saturday Sky games are 5:45 kick-offs. It's not just our game that has been moved.

I'm sure a number of people will like it as they'll either get home earlier or out to town earlier.

Us amateur rugby league players are the ones making the mad dash too. Suprises me we dont get more chance. If were playing away in blackpool for example we wont have much of a chance of making it. Frustrates me as a player/fan

Damn those Sky people for moving a fixture back half an hour. I mean, what have they ever done for Rugby League in our country,................................................. except invest millions of pounds into our sport over the last 20 years, which has enabled Warrington people to enjoy the skills of King, Monaghan (x2), Langer, Nikau, Gleeson, Fa'afilli, Hicks, Swann, Bridge, Briers, Eagar, Johns and Kettlewell.......................I mean, what have Sky ever done for us

I agree, why don't we tell them to love off, and take their money with them. We have enough of our own.
We'll just play wigan and leeds every week.

They don't do it for charity... or shets and giggles. They do it for the cold stuff and I think they get more than enough back for it to be worth it.

If we get another bidder. We could get that in the deal. Give the RFL their backbone back
