But we are on sky at home and not on a sunday

On the Salford website it says that they have requested to play on Sundays. They had some sort of fan's meeting and it was voted the most popular day.

Then at the bottom of the article it says that all fixtures are subject to Sky TV changes.

So a bit of a nonsense story really, no doubt if they are playing the following Thursday they'll move the Sunday game back at short notice just like they did with London away in the qualifiers.

It's a PR exercise to try and sell more season tickets, nothing more and nothing less.

But when we aren’t on Sky our designated kick off time is 3:30pm on a Sunday unless we need to change to avoid short turnarounds.

if Salford play Sundays more than likely my Son and I will be there Thursday Friday night no chance, if the league could enforce it I am sure the gates would go up through out the league if only TV matches were played Thursday and Friday, this seems common sense so I don't expect it to happen

You’re right Chesterfield I presume it means their preference is for Sunday’s like ours is for 3.30 kick offs rather than 3pm like most other teams.

We played some Friday night games that weren’t on sky last season as I recall too but guess money talks and Sky probably ask for two or three games on a Friday so they can take their pick closer to the time.

Salford might get 3500 instead of 3000 most weeks now,make all the difference!

Anyone know if they got a reply yet ?

And you were becoming so positive about being a Cas fan.

just don't get some people on here call your self a moderate as well. the people who are bothered about the new ground are the ones who have being positive and bothered about the future off the club . mart0042 I wonder if your really a cas fan at all. I also have tried contacting axiom by email and no reply ever. a think even hudds tiger his even starting to wonder what the hell is happening. so martoo42 don't you dare question peoples loyalty to the club for being sick off left in the dark. I was on the board off the original fans supports group which formed after the lose to barrow don't start saying I am a wakey fan ever .

But don't fans stay together through thick and thin. In the rough times, the fans keep the club alive and in good times enjoy the fun.

The point isn't loyalty or a matter of who supports a team more or for the longest time. I'm a relative newcomer, first match was 1977, that I can remember

I saw my first home Cas game before you. :dance:

Gritty days. Winter rugby. Soup at half time.

If Salford could up there gates by 500 this takes in another 10,000 pound through the turnstiles the last Sunday game i went to at Salford we took over 1,000

Regarding Sunday fixtures.

Leeds play on a Friday and tend to get sky matches allocated more often than not on a Friday, this keeping the movement of fixtures to a minimum. Not a bad ploy.

Salford fans, some of them, don't want Sunday rugby as it clashes with youth and junior rugby. Something to do with the spread of teams in the North West. In Yorkshire juniors you have the distance between Doncaster and Cramlington (Newcastle), also Keighley and Hull. Pretty far and I've missed matches taking the boys to away fixtures.

It's about trialling it and being prepared to change. It is certainly easier getting over the pennines on Sunday rather than a Thursday or Friday, if you don't rely on away support, which would be a good thing, we had healthy crowd against catalans.

WMDC seem to be the biggest problem, why cant they get their act together & let us get on with the development ](*,)

Is there a new deadline?

Seems to be a lot of unrest in the Labour Council with some of the council leaders own party wanting rid of him and the conservatives looking to raise a vote of no confidence! I wonder if this is having an impact on the general runn8ng of things?

I’ll keep an eye out but still says 23rd. Maybe they are just slow at updating.

Here's hoping. I wouldn't have thought they'd want to delay a multi million pounds project and associated short and long term jobs.

Can’t understand WMDC it’s not like they are putting any money into the project.
To busy lining there own pockets.

Sorry Hudds are you saying that it may have been dealt with and it’s just the portal hasn’t been appropriately updated or it’s definitely missed but they haven’t yet provided a new deadline date?

It could have been determined yesterday but they just haven’t uploaded the documents. But still nothing changed now and uploaded.

Determination deadline still not updated, no new documents uploaded.
