if wigan are forced 2 play sunday then they should just replace whoever is playing sunday? simples but nooooo bet they make us play friday

should wigan lose the 1st playoff game next week then have to play week after, wigan fc are also at home that weekend but sky games are fri n sat so what will happen then?

Arrogant sods at the RFL probably think Wigan will win round one and havent even thought of that! Hopefully for the first time in god know how long the RFL will have to say to Sky...."looks like you are going to have to move one of your games to fit in with the rugby"...(yeh right). They also have the option of playing on a neutral ground.

Noticed that they play City on the Sunday so DW stadium might let them play Friday night.

Nothing, Wigan Athletic are at home on the Sunday.

Re round 1.
Leeds, if they beat Hull can't play on Sunday the 12th September as there is a one day cricket International at Headingley, so it would be pretty obvious for Leeds to play on the Friday and Wigan to play on the Sunday.

Unless they make them restrict the ticket sales.

This happend earlier this season but can't recall what game it was for? It may have been a cup game??? Think they had a restriction so they could only sell 10k tickets??

That was for a Yorkshire game, with very few spectators (and it was rained off

) The police wouldn't allow it whilst a cricket International game was on.

Fair one!!!

Can remember it raining, the camaras showed the cricket ground empty!!! Was always going to happen after the ticket sales had been restricted. Sod's law!!!

wigan athletic play sunday at 3/4pm 48 hours before that is 4pm friday playoff game starts 8pm friday = inside 48 hours lol not being picky just i thought they couldnt play within 48 hours

It was the Challenge Cup game against Wigan. WY police forced Leeds to limit the attdendance as Yorskhire was scheduled to play. Admit the fact that its England might make a difference but wasnt the Yorkshire game scheduled to be against Lancashire. Roses game would probably attract a bigger crowd.

Im still banking on us playing Friday.

I think the convention (remember this is just a landlord/tenant agreement, nothing to do with Sl or premiserhsip rules) are that Warriors can only play 2 days before Wigan Athletic (to give the pitch time to recover). Its been mentioned before that a Thursday night game would be Ok before a Saturday match so I think they are taking calender days rather than strict chronological time.

If Leeds beat Hull they will be away to Wigan!!!!! (1 v 4) If Leeds finish 5th then there could be fun and games as i believe leeds united are at home on the Saturday BUT I still think Sky want a top 4 game for Friday night and if it cant be Wigan........
