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.

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."

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.

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.

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?

Last home game of the season against Leicester, last time this
happened wasn't it the championship season?

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.
