Quote: MadDogg "A shame IMO as the Wigan v Leigh fixture is unlikely to fulfil it's potential attendance wise if it ends up as a midweek fixture. Usually the only way to avoid that is if both teams are knocked out of the Challenge Cup.'"
An open goal missed not having it in week one and then when you realise they’ve done that, it just puts a top hat on it! You go from an exciting, attention grabbing and potentially feisty (after the last game) opener, between the cup winners and the champions, in front of 20,000, to it being a mid week fixture in front of 11/12k.
We’re going nowhere fast as a sport unfortunately.
