Three weeks and counting....
...any ideas when the day and KO time for round 5 and 6 are announced? I've had a quick look around the t'internet but alas to no avail....
I'm assuming that it won't be until after Christmas now which is farcical.

Ignore - end of the week apparently according to the official Facebook page.
Re: Three weeks and counting....
It is way too late though. If I fancied a trip to Paris for the Racing game it is now way too late to book a package that works for me knowing when the game is.

Again EPC rugby treat supporters with contempt. In the European Wendy ball championship the draw is made and fixtures and KO times are available within hours, and this is a sport dominated by TV.
Contrast that with EPC.
The club has announced they are now selling tickets for an away game in Paris but all we know is KO in 3 weeks is perhaps Friday evening, or maybe Sat pm, or even Sat evening, but perhaps Sunday afternoon.
I suppose all those TV execs and EPC rugby officials are having a few days off to get their XMAS shopping done, so will have to wait on them. It is only, effectively, 15 matches to schedule since the last round usually has same KO time for both games in a pool.
The biggest disappointment is that we do not hear anything from Cohen and others in power at clubs speaking up for their supporters. By their silence they appear to condone the contempt we are treated with.

It's seemingly gets worse by the year....
Re: Three weeks and counting....
Agreed Friends that the date and time particularly of the match in Paris is still to be revealed is shocking. OK you can now buy tickets but you can't make any Travel plans Epc officials need a good kick up the derriere.

Well Wasps have confirmed their KO times on their website, so it would be nice of Tigers to follow suit ASAP!!!

No they haven't. Says TBC on their fixture list page http://www.wasps.co.uk/fixtures-resultsdoublecarpet wrote:Well Wasps have confirmed their KO times on their website, so it would be nice of Tigers to follow suit ASAP!!!
Mind you, I'm waiting for a day and time for the Edinburgh game at Quins, and given it's the Challenge Cup I've a horrible feeling it might be on the Thursday.

Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.
Re: Three weeks and counting....
At last we now have the dates and times for rounds 5 & 6, why this couldn't be orted out earlier only god and the idiots who run the EPC know.

In my defence, I was left unsupervised….

Similar with Bath v Tigers "The Clash" at Twickenham? Tigers have it as tbc, Twickers calendar has it as 8th April with time tbc. I stayed at the Twickenham Marriott before Christmas and they had flyers in the rooms for it and pretty sure it had 3pm on it.
