Hi Folks

"See you on the Thursday" is just possible, but, as riverkid says, it would pre-assume a qualifier such as "of next week".

If someone were to ask:
"Can we meet sometime next week? What days are you free?"
The response might be: "I'm free on Wednesday or Thursday",
to which the response would be: "I'll see you on the Thursday, then".

As noted above it pre-assumes a qualifier such as "of next week".

Hope this helps.
