"It's a nice day for a...........White Wedding"

how the mighty fall, know this goons win,lose or draw your club ,fans and board are a laughing stock,you have not only embaressed yourselves but unfortunatly RL in genaral,the arrogance of your clubs statement must have made even the most feverant brigonette/ultra or what ever the inbreed chav population of goontown call themselves squirm,,but then again probably not.you are without doubt the most horrible club in rugby.no wonder everybody loaths you....humble pie eaters=scabs,

I've got sympathy for your situation, however if the league hasn't changed the dates (which it must do for next year) then your club has a responsibility to ensure that it can fulfill its fixtures as requested by our governing body. The RFL needs to realise that these are modern businesses who need to be able to plan events with as much notice as possible and not two weeks. That part is a shambles but it doesn't excuse not being able to comply with instructions that were clear from the beginning of the season. This is particularly important when the club is subservient to the commercial operations of its landlord.

It's only Wigan who have the problem playing before a football match. Don't pretend that this is about the scheduling of the challenge cup, which is a totally different debate.

ATOTED Wigan requested that they were not given a fixture for next week the request was refused. Live with it, RL > Wigan.

I think the only stupid thing the RFL have done is the fixture set up and I think it's the only valid point Lenagan made in his PR.

"We also feel that the RFL scheduling of Challenge Cup rounds has been poor, with three rounds in 30 days, followed by nine weeks before the semi-finals."

If there was a month between the quarters, semis and final, there would be no problem, i dont understand why there is such a big gap, you start to lose interest in it tbh, then all of a sudden its " oh yeah, we've a semi final this weekend"

basically, as of the first week in June, the nations sporting interest will be focused on the Euro championships for June into July; then Olympic fever will basically take over the entire country for July into August.

I know that Euro 2012 and the Olympics pale into insignificance when looking at the the titanic sporting occasion of Wigan Athletic versus Wolverhampton Wanderers, which the Wigan chairman thinks the RFL should reschedule the whole RL season for; but in reality there is going to be no sporting attention on anything else for 2 months.

The RFL have to contend with much bigger events that are happening this summer: the Euros and the Olympics are massive events and it would be stupid for us to even consider competing with them.

Well, he's the coach so he has to motivate them hasn't he?

I can just see Laffranchi, wilkin and co sat there thinking, well in rushie, just fire wane, hock, Lima and co up even more.

Well if thats what theyre thinking they might as well sit It out.
