I'm surprised it's not Thorman's fault, have we forgotten him already??

The RFL, they were given dates that could be available and din't want any of them.

Thought it was the other way around. Thought Duffen was offered dates by the RFL and he said he couldnt guarantee until the Premier League fixtures are out? In fact I distinctly remember him saying such on the radio.

We've obviously heard different stories, has Duffen ever made a statement about it?

Why couldn't the RFl have chosen a date they required. City could then have rearranged a game to suit, it's not exactly hard work and at the end of the day it is Sky who get to move fixtures around willy nilly to suit their broadcasting, and as the rugby will be on sky there would have been no problem.



Hell Sky would most likely have made sure City were on the next day so they didn;t have to move the cameras etc

Didnt someone post a letter on here that they had sent Duffen about the lack of RL internationals at the KC and his response was tough I make the decisions and there wont be any played ???

and get major problems with the Premier League?

Duffen was sent dates by the RL and refused to confirm that any of them were avilable because he did not know what the Football fixtures were! he said h he had already asked the FL to avoid Clipper weekend and HUll Fair and it appeared by that , that he was not prepared to ask for another dispensation for a RL interational!
