Ok. First they cock up our fixtures with the Salford game when they knew of the Challenge cup fixtures the same weekend.

Now they allow Cas to change the fixture against us with only just over a couple of weeks notice because there's not enough rest time for Cas' next game. Fair enough, but THEY KNEW THIS BACK IN OCTOBER!

We will then probably have to change ANOTHER fixture to fit in the postponed Salford game and also give enough rest time.

And then the usual changes to accomodate Sky.

As a season pass holder I try to ensure I get to every game (plus the 2 child season tickets I have for my sons). We all have busy lives so I'm sure I'm not alone in juggling weekends etc to make sure we get to the games.

I am now facex with the fact that it would probably have been cheaper to buy tickets individually than buying season passes because I'm not guaranteed to be able to change my other plans.

The RFL is treating fans with utter contempt with no indication of any compensation, and I am completely sick of it.

The biggest joke is that their reason for the change is that there needs to be 5 day turnaround because of player welfare. However they then arrange 2 games over easter and ask teams to play midweek games because of the Challenge Cup.

The game sold it's soul to TV. TV dictates who plays and when.

What part of that is difficult to comprehend?

But it's not a game that's on TV

This fixture has nothing to do with TV. What part of that is difficult to comprehend?

My main gripe with this is the inconsistencies produced on a regular basis with regards to the 'reasoning' behind the decision. Easter fixtures and challenge cup fixtures are fine, but their favourite clubs need enough rest between games to ensure they get into the top 8. Cheers.

I wonder if Leeds were aware or offered the same, as we're still playing on the Sunday. Cas are always up for this game and i'm not sure why the RFL have given them this advantage :/

But their next game is, on the Thursday. Perhaps they didn't want them going to Leeds on a 4 day turnaround with it being on Sky for fear of them turning up tired and not playing well? Granted Leeds play on the Sunday too so a 4 day turnaround but I don't know if we've ask to move it and plus, it's only against Wakey away.

A few years back sky changed the KO time for a Catalans game, meaning that most of the travelling London support (we used to take a few hundred to france....honest) were on the return flight home when the game Kicked Off.
I believe that Gutterfax...that anti league union loving troll banned from this site spat his dummy out that hard that the parliamentary rl group were given assurances from SKY and the RFL that no further changes would be made to games in France.

I'm sure many said that last year...and the year before when we only won in the last 5mins or something

The RFL have set a precedent now for changing games with 5 day turnarounds.
Plenty of teams have had to play on a Sunday then on a Thursday,
Leeds are still having to do exactly that, Yet the RFL have changed our game to benefit Cas,
Why should Cas have the game changed when other teams have had to play on Sundays then the Thursday.

Yeah but Wakefield players were actually trying then....now in 2015 they're just happy to drop their shorts, apply the lube and bend over until the middle 8's arrive.

We haven't just enquired about changing the fixture date - Cas Tigers asked for this fixture to be moved back in February and didn't get an answer from the RFL.
