    I ask because from the looks of the tentative upcoming schedule he has three saturday shows in a row.

    03.07.2010 - Preston - Michael Jennings-John O'Donnell & Bomber
    10.07.2010 - Wales - Nathan Cleverly - Dodou Ngumbe & Enzo?
    17.07.2010 - Scotland - Limmond, Simpson, Burns Shows

    Sure hope so he is the number one promoter in the UK and he has our best fighters and propsects. Ronnie Hefron has been out once this year ONCE! Same with loads of others like Joe Selkirk, Liam Smith, Billy Joe Saunders, Tony Bellew, Stephen Smith. And that doesn't even include his Scottish fighters who are lucky if they can get a 6 rounder against Al-Hamidi.

    I sure hope so and it would be great to see his guys out more often and say what you like about Frank but his shows do tend to be the more interesting ones.

    Surely the Saturday shows are because of the lack of Premier League football?
    I can't see these continuing once the new seaon starts

    That's probably a good guess to be honest.

    OK I know but the question was more of does he now have regular dates rather than has he switched channels. In all honesty Frank needs at least 2 shows a month for his guys to make the progression needed.
