I’m fed up of Friday night games.
We used to absolutely love Sunday afternoon games.
- no pressure on travelling home or away.
- generally warmer and brighter summer rugby through day
- can make plans both before and after. (Used to have a few beers or food).
- could take the kids (next generation of fans). Can’t take my 6 year old as she gets tired come 9-9:30pm. How’s this helping bring the next gen of fans?
There’s the other benefits for clubs of not using the energy for lights etc on a night.
I honestly can’t fathom why we’ve moved away from Sunday games last few years. Its a hugely negative move and whenever I see any social media posts about it the majority seem to agree.
It seems to be the decision from up top. If it were a club decision I’d be moving games back to weekends.
I have a 5 year old and 2 year old. Like you say it’s really difficult to get to some of these games isn’t it.
