If Town make the top the problem is likely to become worse and that will always effect the Giants. The Wakefield chairman spoke a lot of sense the other week when he talked about RL trying to be the 2nd major sport in the North. This is what we need to focus on and work together. I have been very critical of our marketing and commercial efforts but I think we are finally since Eorl was appointed ,starting to wake up and try and move forward, we have been really trying in last few weeks which is great and with the efforts so far on the field the club has a much more positive feel. It is hard though when fixtures are continually being shifted ,no easy answer!

If I remember correctly, back in the 60s when I was a nipper we played Saturday rugby and usually Fartown and Town played home matches on alternate weeks. My late father was an avid supporter of both and took me down to watch them. I seem to remember the Fartown HT score coming up the the Town scoreboard, usually followed by a cheers or load groans, mind you Fartown got decent crowds in them days. It can't be that difficult for the RL fixture experts to ensure we play home matches on alternate weekends seeing as the football fixtures will have been out months before our fixtures are. Same goes for the FA, they know when our last few home games of the season are. Mind you, that's asking for a bit of common sense and then we've only got our Sky paymasters to contend with. If Fartown, Town and the powers that be would get their heads together surely any future fixture problems could be reasonably solved and the groundsman would have a far easier life




Surely it can't be that hard but I won't hold my breath

yes very quiet. you may have to email the club like others have done.

i have done brearley got one back saying it would be mensioned at the next stadium board meeting

looks like wigan have now fallen foul of the football league too!

that game was even going to be screened on tv too



you would have thought they could play on the sunday...

anyway its not being played at widnes, talk about a farce and short notice

something for the giants to get used to i feel

wagner complaining today in the examiner about the pitch at huddersfield and the chairman has brought in extra lighting to help the grass grow

No- Wigan went about this in entirely the wrong way- didn't get an RFL official to inspect the pitch as they should have.
Wigan didn't even consult with Widnes at all-the reversed fixture was an obvious suggestion but Wigan didn't consult- I reckon the just wanted to recover from the WCC.
All credit to Widnes for getting the game on at theirs at short notice!

i think wigan will have fully expected to play the game tonight at home but have been told it cant happen by the football league

Does anyone know the ruling re parking, l am a member of the KAL gym, l have been told l must be in the car park 4 hours before kickoff (Town matches obviously) or l will not be allowed in, even though l have my members card, l am told this also applies to the cinema.
ls this a public right of way?(Dalton bank entrance), and can these stewards bar you from entry?
