Quote: Clearwing "Can't realistically give the points to Widnes, it's a game they might well have lost and it could have big ramifications on the final table. Neither can they be docked from Wigan as I don't imagine for a minute that the RFL won't have been privy to this decision. To be honest, regardless of the statement, I suspect this might well be a circumstance beyond Wigan (RL's) control. Maybe the only thing to do is to regard it as a simple postponement due to weather, i.e. in the same way as if the ground were flooded or a foot of snow had fallen? It 100% smacks of an unequal partnership though.'"
If I don't show up to a game I'm likely to win I can't laugh at the ref and say "You can't give them the points, I was going to walk it but don't really fancy playing".

| Err this is a weird one but one of your lot just went onto our board and called me out by name for NOT posting on your forum???
So I guess Ill say I don't think this switching fixtures thing was very proffesional, and you will probably be fined or maybe docked points, depending on whether the rfl sees it as a serious enough offence.
Positives for you is that you play us in a couple of weeks, so you will get those points back in no time.

Why haven't you complained? You might feel uncomfortable doing it (I know I do) but I've read that you missed your train that you'd already paid for which can't have been just loose change.
I don't think the club are happy about this whole sh*t fest and would compensate you if you contacted them.

| I have complained to the club a few times in the past about changed fixtures . I have just resigned myself to the fact that its the perils on a long distance supporter and prefer to keep the blood pressure in check these days by staying calm Ha Ha Ha . Nearly didn't work last week though .
Answer to your question on Friday Brian (Rogues) is yes i have calmed down lol.
Regards . EW

I know who I would bill. And it wouldn't be Wigan Warriors.
