Yes I agree Sunday for the last home game of the season would be far preferable for us too. If we're going to have another season full of Friday evening ko's I might add well not have bought tickets for my children as they won't be able to come. Neither will my wife which means I might as well not have bought her once either! 😞

The reason used for no LDH is due to the refurbishment of Twickers. That to me is surely a smokescreen ...  there are the internationals this season too. All of those games will have far bigger crowds

New east stand is up and running for the autumn internationals. Bookings for the new Clubhouse restaurant open on 24th July.

Glad the LDH is off, seen some of the comments on Twitter re “ The Clash” as it’s now Barf v Paddingtons, plenty saying what a good idea move two West Country teams to play in London. Would have made more sense to play in Cardiff
Still concerned we might have a USA fixture with our home game against Sarries as the appetiser

The reason used for no LDH is due to the refurbishment of Twickers. That to me is surely a smokescreen. The work has been going on at HQ for a year. We've had Internationals played there, along with BG10 while the work is going on, and there are the internationals this season too. All of those games will have far bigger crowds than the LDH gets, typically selling out or close to. LDH is lucky if it gets half full. Hopefully it gets knocked on the head completely.

They can put up as many smokescreens as they like as far as I am concerned, as long as we never have to play in another LDH again.

Sarries on 9th Oct is timed for NBC I think?

I was looking through the fixtures and thinking, crikey we've got a tough run in at end of the season then I started looking at all the fixtures and am thinking, crikey, we've got a tough start, middle and end...:(

good news we won't clash with Bath's home game at Twickenham Stadium, bad news our last home game of the regular season on the same weekend as the Army v Navy again.
I guess the kids will have to wait to play about on the pitch until after our home semi final!

Come on you Quins!!

Love the optimism!  It's the hope that kills.... ;)

Big game being Wasps is good news.

But I can’t believe they’re going to move the last game of the season to a Friday night. Surely this is one that has to be in the daytime. If need be a Sunday. It’s usually one of the best days of the season with kids on the pitch etc.

Oh, I totally agree. I can totally understand that they want to move the game away from the Army/Navy game after last season, but we should lobby the club to move it to the Sunday.

I'd much rather see it moved to the Sunday instead. That way folks with a distance to travel don't have to use the car, can enjoy a day in the sun, & socialise over a few beers afterwards.

Of course the other option would be for Premiership Rugby to allocate Quins an AWAY game the w/end of the Army v Navy game.  Anyone know why the last game is so late (18th May)? It's not as if we are starting later.

True. They couldn't do it last season because every game of the final round has to start at the same time. Probably they want to keep it that clubs alternate between Home and Away games on the final round. As to why it's finishing so late, it probably has to do with the scheduling around European cup knock-out games?

the season seems to be finishing late - usually the last game is the fist Saturday in May.  This time it is 2 weeks later
The final home game is being moved from the Saturday because it would clash with the Army/Navy game. So it does appear to be a week longer as a season, considering we clashed with that last season on the last w/e of the regular season...

Yh just realised, plus fair play to Quins they replied to me pretty quickly on Twitter:
"Our match against would clash with Army v Navy at Twickenham Stadium if played on the Saturday. Following feedback from supporters last season we have provisionally agreed to move it to Friday night."

Starting with a home game on Saturday at 3pm - can't be right??

Don't get too excited. The next three home games after that are evening kick-offs, 2xFriday 1xSaturday, and the club have tweeted they have provisional confirmation from Prem Rugby that our final home game will be played on Friday the 3rd of May.

2nd home game against Bath also a 3pm KO - but after that yes, not many Saturday 3pms lined up.

I'd much prefer our last home game to be a Saturday.

And they're up!

https://www.premiershiprugby.com/fixtures/gallagher-premiership-fixtures/

Noticeable dates:
Sharks up first on the Saturday (No LDH as predicted).

Sarries on Saturday 9th October is at 7:30pm (Not a fan of Saturday evening games. Probably to do with TV (Could be one of the games that Channel 5 are going to show?)

Wasps for BG11 (shame, would've liked someone different for once)

Last home game in Round 21 is Tigers.

I'd like to have a different opposition for BG. We've had Tigers, Wasps, Sarries, Saints(x2), Exeter, LI(x2) and Gloucs(x2). It would be nice to see, say, Worcester being invited up for once.

Plus I'd like to see us have a decent fixture that we've got a good chance of winning as our last home game that ends up being scheduled on a Saturday afternoon so we can enjoy it on a nice sunny afternoon!
