I would say that IMO 3,00 pm kick offs on Sundays in July and August - maybe even June also- are not the best times to play games , if the aim is to maximise attendances . Ther are just too many other things to do at this time , thus while the Man in the family may want to go to the game on Sunday , the rest of the family may welll want to do something differant , and we know who usually prevails .
If you look at the fixtures for the 2008 season not only Super League but also the National Leagues seem to be scheduling an increasing number of Friday night games , so there must be something in it!
Friday evevning games is certainly something we as a club should look at , and the odd Friday game we have played, attendances seem to have held up - eg Donny last year . Another alternative may be to play on Saturday with a 6.30 kick off - which would enable visiting fans to attend rather more esaily than on a Friday evening .
